A trip up to Michigan taps into a very primal urge to escape the city and peacefully engage with Dame Nature.
…. a task made all the easier when you shack up at a bananas game preserve and hunting lodge boasting hunting, fishing, zip-lining and more alongside the cushiest amenities that side of the Lake.
It’s called Meemo’s Retreat, and they’re taking summer reservations now.
It’s perfect for your next corporate retreat. Your next bachelor party. Your next “How’d the hell you find this place!?”
Situated about a four-hour drive from Chicago near the backwoods of Manistee National Forest, Meemo’s Retreat is a full-on, full-service decampment station. On premise: four very distinct accommodation options, each palatial and ruggedly appointed, and each offering its share of creature comforts.
Romantic getaway? That’s the Cottage, a two-bedroom hideaway nestled in the woodlands with a hot tub overlooking a private lake. Large group? The Lodge sleeps up to 26 and comes with a wine cellar and world-class kitchen, not to mention an open fireplace, hot tub and splendid outdoor entertaining area.
Then there’s the Lanes. The only thing you need to know about the Lanes is that it has a bowling alley in the basement. That’s already a 300 in our book. Drink someone’s milkshake. Drink it up.
But look beyond the choice digs, because what you’re really here for is the sport. Meemo’s got a roster of full-service outdoor action you can call on at a moment’s notice, including a ginormous high ropes course, fishing on the nearby Muskegon River, ATV tours around the grounds and the finest shooting facility you’ll ever lay eyes upon.
Plus: kayaking, canoeing, mountain biking and hiking.
This is Michigan, after all. Dame Nature calls. Check the rates and book now.
