I remember a hundred lovely lakes
And recall the fragrant breath of pines...
It has given me release from care and worry

A century later, Mr. Garland's poetic observation still rings true. There is something magical, maybe even mildly therapeutic about the combination of water and woods.
Just inside Harbor Country, near the Michigan-Indiana border, there exists a peaceful patch of mature forest surrounding a serene, private spring-fed lake. This "release from care and worry" is called Maple Beach.
Carefully placed among the trees, with wide porches facing the lake, twenty-two "cottage style" homes are now under construction. The cottage homes on Maple Beach are beautifully designed for comfortable, casual living with cedar siding, huge windows, wrap-a-round porches and open floor plans. They range in size from 2,100 square feet to 2,600 square feet and all four custom designs offer three to five bedrooms and two to three baths. The Arts and Crafts style architecture includes wide plank hardwood floors, large wood burning, fireplaces with stone chimneys and custom trim work. Maple Beach offers the high quality construction, appliance and finish detail you expect in a year 'round home, while maintaining the character and charm of a vintage vacation cottage.
Maple Beach has been carefully designed to highlight the land's natural elements. The deep, forty-acre, spring-fed lake is perfect for fishing, swimming or sailing the day away. In keeping with the peaceful environment, no gas-powered boats are allowed on the water. There is a sunny, sandy beach area complete with a heated pool. The beautiful woods stretch over sixty-acres and foot trails through the towering trees offer a true sense of wilderness. Take a hike in the woods. Cross country ski or just take a nap on your screened porch. Why should you have to choose between a cabin in the woods or a sun filled lakefront cottage? Join us at Maple Beach, only an hours drive from the distractions of urban life, and combine the advantages of both in one beautiful home.
