Welcome to our little corner of the world. My name is Valerie and I live in Elmira, Michigan with my husband, two children and all our fur kids. Our home is situated on ten beautifully wooded acres. We moved to Northern Lower Michigan about five years ago and we feel it is a dream come true. We absolutely love being so close to nature. There is nothing like watching deer outside your window, thirty wild turkeys grazing in your yard, or seeing coyotes crossing through your field. The experience is breath taking.

As for our fur kids, we have dogs, guinea pigs, and rats. You can see and read about our fur kids at www.critterlodge.com

We have a wonderful Vet for our fur kids, she treats them as her own and she has become a very good friend over the years. Her name is Dr. Susan Hall. She is located in Gaylord, MI at the Hall Veterinary Clinic. Dr. Hall and her staff are so wonderful, I can not say enough about their kindness and care. No matter when I take my fur kids in, they greet you with the most loving hospitality. I highly recommend Dr. Susan Hall and her staff.

We hope you enjoy our fur kids. If you have any questions please feel free to email us.
