    Water Wonderland Weekends

    IF IT’S BEEN AWHILE since you’ve dug your toes in the sand, then it’s time to plan a weekend getaway. Never mind that hot weather isn’t upon us yet. Now is the perfect time to take short trips to ignite your summer self. Between Michigan and Ohio, there are endless places to visit, and numerous ways to experience the peacefulness of nature — along with the excitement that a few rounds of golf, a night at the casino, or an amusement park ride can bring.

    At Cedar Point, between the soft, sandy beaches of Lake Erie and the thrilling steel beasts of the amusement park, you can go from sand to screams in seconds. Closer to home, MotorCity Casino provides hours of entertainment including fine dining, a relaxing spa and, of course, superb accommodations.

    Hop in your car and head for any Michigan coast. In Traverse City or the Petoskey area, enjoy wine country, shop for unique finds in quaint downtowns, or head out to enjoy pristine golf courses, wooded trails, and miles of beautiful shoreline. A stay at the Grand Traverse Resort will reward you with a spectacular, scenic view; an indoor water playground; and a full-service spa. At the Cherry Tree Inn & Suites in Traverse City, the beach is just outside your front door.

    A few hours from the Detroit area, South Haven and Ludington offer miles of Lake Michigan shoreline to explore, plenty of trails for the outdoor enthusiast, and bustling downtowns, too.

    Whether you need a walk on the beach or a night on the town, there are plenty of places close to home where you can make the most of a weekend.

    MAKING COTTAGE MEMORIES

    Pat Leavy has been helping southeast Michigan families create memories in beautiful Northern Michigan for over 18 years. With boundless energy, perseverance, humor, dogged persistence, and a great staff, Pat works harder than any other agent to achieve his clients’ goals. He has sold over $95 million of luxury properties in just 2017.

    Pat believes buying a home in northwest Michigan is more than square footage and a floor plan. With its blue lakes, miles of shoreline, fresh air, rolling hills, undisturbed woods, vibrant towns, and friendly people, it’s an extraordinary opportunity to experience and share a real treasure. Clearly, it is Pat’s enthusiasm for the area’s lifestyle that translates into results for you, whether you are a buyer or a seller.

    As your Buyer’s Representative, Pat can make the process of house hunting much easier and more efficient than if you did it all yourself. He can help you get financing, guide you to local neighborhoods, help you determine your budget, and prioritize a list of essential features that you need in your next home. He’ll save you valuable time by finding the properties that best suit your requirements, and will show you only the most promising ones. Once you’ve found a place that catches your eye, he’ll look at comparable properties in the area to help determine a purchase offer. Then he’ll negotiate on your behalf with the seller to make sure you get the most favorable terms.

    Pat would consider it a privilege to work with you. Call him today to begin your search for your vacation home or vacation rental.
