[QUOTE="Voyageur, post: 1049420, member: 17953"] That's the right approach. Even being in a small town area is pretty much out in the country. My wife and I looked at the idea of buying a place up in the Michigamme area, but decided against it, because it was too far away from some of the conveniences we still wanted to have. It would have been a summer retreat only, so the cost of opening and shutting down every year, and the upkeep on a place when it's locked down for 6 months at a time is pretty high. We know first hand, having had a place by Lake Koshkonong for over 20 years, and one in Northwestern Wisconsin for 20 before that. Then there's the driving. Lord have mercy that holiday traffic out there is horrible. I cam remember running bumper to bumper all the way from Rice Lake South on old 53, and then on the freeway all the way down to Southern Wisconsin, and Illinois. Definitely not something that I looked forward to as the driver. Now, if I was loaded, and owned a small plane, I'd be doing it in a heartbeat, because I'd be able to afford a caretaker to keep things working at the house all winter, and I could store a vehicle up there for our usage when we flew in. It's just under 40 miles to Marquette, and they have a relatively decent airport. I believe American Airlines also offers service, so that's an option too, if you don't fly yourself. But, like everything else, it's more money than I can afford by a long shot. LOL This would be perfect. I'd just want to add an addition off the back, including a breakfast room enclosed in glass, a 2nd full bath with walk in tub, master bedroom with walk in closet, and a sitting/TV room that would be off the kitchen area, so the living room doesn't get that particular traffic.
