farmhouse at the long table.
A restored 1890s farmhouse and timber barn on twelve acres of orchard, minutes from Lake Michigan. Yours alone — one group, one retreat at a time.
Twelve acres that change their mind four times a year.
Hosts come for the cherry-gold of autumn and the long lake days of summer. The secret is winter — the orchard under snow, the wood stove lit, the whole farm gone quiet and entirely yours. We keep those weeks just as booked.
A house to live in, a barn to gather in.
The 1892 farmhouse sleeps your group in seven bedrooms full of quilts and morning light. Across the yard, the restored timber barn is the heart of the retreat — beams overhead, a wood stove, room for twenty-four in a circle or twenty around the long table. Two garden cottages hold the overflow. All of it yours, one group at a time.
Room for sixteen, and a barn for more.
The whole farm, on one page.
The 1892 farmhouse on its two floors, the converted timber barn with the 40 × 28 ft gathering hall, and the two garden cottages at the orchard's edge — so you can plan a retreat from three states away without guessing.
“By the second morning, people were lingering at the long table for hours. Cedarwick does something to a group — it slows everyone down. We've already booked next October.”
Sleeping Bear at the door, wine country down the road.
Whole-property buyout, two ways to take it — four days, Thursday afternoon through Sunday, or seven days, the full week, Saturday to Saturday. Farmhouse, barn, and both cottages either way. Winter Hearthside stays priced lower (four days from $6,500 · seven days from $11,000); linens, towels, and firewood included.
