Take a step back in time at the historic Ely House - a 100 year old farmhouse on a quiet 200 acres.
The Ely house was the original postmaster boarding house in what was once the town of Ely. Of that town, only the Ely house remains.
From the front porch you can almost see the train that use to drive through and the horses still saddled out front. Railroad spikes and old coins are a common find here.
You will enjoy its convenient location between Colonial Michilimackinac and Harbor Springs.
Flowing through the middle of the farm is Cold Creek. It connects to the Maple River offering superb brown trout fishing.
Old Elm trees provide an ideal habitat for our abundant Bald Eagle population which can be spotted year round. And there's always lots of cows grazing in the pastures.
The Ely house has a flowing well with pristine artesian drinking or bathing water from every faucet.
The house is heated and cooled geothermally. Geothermal heat provides a radiant warmth in the winter and a crisp cool in the summer. You might also like keeping the windows open to have that sweet summer air sweeping through the house.
The public wooded trails by the house will keep you pleasantly occupied. Whether it be a morning walk, a bike trip down a country road, wild berry picking, or a slow day fishing on Ely Bridge Rd.
At the end of the day, a bonfire under the stars while listening to the sound of owls makes for lasting memories.
