The Ultimate Girl’s Getaway.....
.......and more*
We’re a place to have fun, get pampered, and still remain very affordable. We are part Bed and Breakfast, and part Scrapbook Haven.
Head to Gladwin, Michigan and stay with us right on Secord Lake. Secord Lake is a 2000 acre all sports lake. Take in the spectacular view of the lake through floor to ceiling windows or out on any of the three large decks. The area is surrounded by beautiful trees and offers an up north atmosphere. This feature is raved about by former guests. Almost so relaxing you don't want to scrap!
We understand Michigan's economy is down and that shouldn't stop anyone from enjoying a mini-getaway. We've done our research with 15 other retreats in Michigan and we dare you to compare our weekend retreat rates. Our prices are guaranteed to be among the lowest while still offering impeccable service, delicious food, providing "just like home" accommodations, and professional scrapbooking instruction. Getting away is vital for many women to recharge themselves. We understand that and want to be sure you schedule yourself a weekend away. You'll return home refreshed, caught up on all your scrapbooking, and ready to make more memories with your loved ones.
*Please note: Private bookings of the lake home can be for any of the following gatherings as long as the minimum of 6 guests is met. If such a weekend is booked, it will remain a private weekend for the group and you will have full run of the household and property. No discounts/coupons will be accepted for these type of private weekends.
COUPLES GET AWAY- The girls can scrapbook during the day while the guys have a day of golf or enjoy some ORV riding. The Dream, The Nightmare, Buck’s Run, and Sugar Springs are just a few courses in the area. View the ORV trail in Gladwin County if you are an outdoor enthusiast. Consider using the lake too for fishing or boating. Public boat launch is very close to lake house. Property can also accomodate a trailer for you to bring your toys to enjoy. Bonfires provided nightly while you unwind together. Private rooms are provided for all couples with King or Queen sized beds.
BACHELORETTE PARTIES – You can have a weekend away with the girls even if you are not a scrapbooker. Mt. Pleasant is about 45 minutes away if you want to visit the Soaring Eagle Casino. You can shop 20 minutes north at the Tanger Outlet Mall. If you are a scrapper, consider treating the bride-to-be to a weekend away with her favorite girlfriends. Consider making a keepsake book of what you love about the bride as a special gift. She'll treasure it forever!
QUILTING, POKER, PURSE, etc. PARTIES We will be glad to accomodate any type of craft/card games you and your friends enjoy. Contact hostess with your request and every effort will be made to make a special weekend away for your group or club.
BIRTHDAY PARTIES – We will be sure you have a cake with enough candles to commemorate the special day for your weekend celebration.
SCRAPBOOK CONSULTANTS – You can book the lake home for your weekend. You may sell your products throughout the weekend and enjoy some scrapbook time to yourself too. The hostess will still do all the cooking/meal preparation and help you unload/load products from your vehicle. Extra storage for your products will be provided.
SPECIALIZED GROUPS – One parent/guardian must accompany any group with guests under the age of 21. Mom and daughters, Girl Scout Gatherings, Sweet 16 party and any other groups.
