A solid pine door separates the Great Room from the sleeping area to provide privacy and diminish noise.
A beautiful pine and iron stairway leads to the loft and upstairs bedrooms. The loft is the perfect spot to read a book, work on your laptop, or enjoy family time playing one of the many board games that have been provided. The primary bedroom includes a comfortable king bed and window with a beautiful view of the garden and meadow. A bedroom with two twin beds is a good place for kids. A pull-out double bed in the loft can also accommodate additional guests.
A 1200-square-foot outdoor terrace includes a large firepit, comfortable outdoor furniture, and patio tables that comfortably seat 12. There is plenty of room for grilling, and we can provide both large and small charcoal grills. A large pantry that can be accessed from the terrace makes serving large groups very convenient. Check out the Fun Shed to find lots of outdoor games like Cornhole, Giant Jenga, Bocce ball, flying disks, and fishing gear. Don't forget to bring your furry friends as we have a "dog spa" complete with a raised shower to rinse off the pets after they have been swimming or exploring.
The great outdoors offers some of the best opportunities for enjoyment at Liberty Lodge. This is a peaceful, secluded, and soothing environment. You will be able to explore 65 acres of native prairie meadows with fruit trees and over 40 different species of wildflowers, 60 acres of hardwood forest, and 6 acres of food plots. We maintain nearly three miles of mowed trails for romantic walks, hiking, and cross-country skiing. You may also enjoy water sports with three-quarters of a mile of frontage on the banks of the River Raisin and our farm pond. Spend some time in our accessible wildlife viewing blinds that overlook our food plots and you will likely see deer, wild turkey, birds of prey, pheasants, raccoons, ducks, geese, sandhill cranes, and a myriad of songbirds. The outdoor chapel located on a bluff overlooking the river provides the serenity for introspective reflection or to become closer to God.
There's lots more to do if you'd like to venture to the nearby attractions and restaurants. The Irish Hills are full of antique shops, wineries, mini-golf, the famous Mystery Hill, and Michigan International Speedway. Rent a pontoon boat at nearby Wamplers Lake or Clark Lake and enjoy a float-in meal at Jerry's Grill or Eagle's Nest. Enjoy the shops and restaurants of the quaint nearby communities of Napoleon, Manchester, and Brooklyn. If you care to drive a little further, Ann Arbor, East Lansing, and their universities, museums, and nightlife have a great deal to offer.
