Dear Guests,
I would like to extend a personal invitation to you to experience the special space we've created just for you in Harbor Springs, Michigan. Come smell the clean air free of pollutants and allergans. Come hear how loud the silence of northern Michigan can sound. Come breath in the pines, cedars and lake Michigan itself. Run, hike, bike. Swim, sail, kayak. Or just stay in your PJ's all day and bask in how full a day of doing nothing can feel. I promise you will leave feeling better. More rested. More rejuvenated. More hopeful you can tackle your responsibilities with ease. More connected with the outdoors and those you love. Come join us and experience it for yourself. The Lodge At The Lake Difference A Special Space In A Special Place Very Warm Regards, Linda Simpson Owner Operator |
Meet the owners
Hi, I'm Linda. My partner, Debbie, and I own and operate The Lodge On The Lake. My dad helped develop the Harbor Cove resort and sold many of the units to original owners while I was in high school in the 80's. I grew up in Harbor Springs and spent many hours on the shores of Harbor Cove. I graduated from Harbor Springs High School in 1982, then received my bachelors degree from Kalamazoo College in 1986 and my masters from Western Michigan University in1990. I am VP of Human Resources for Tosoh America and Debbie actively volunteers at the Columbus Zoo. We reside with our family, 2 cairn terriers, fish and a cat in Powell, Ohio.
