" Our prop in Fennville , MI is a conifer laden sandlike dune just 4 miles from the east glide of Lake Michigan . We take advantage of the sandy , acidulent soil by plant rhododendron , Azaleas , etc . Rocks and innate mulch define the walk trail throughout the 25 acres . Other sunnier portions of the property are dedicated to restored Michigan prairies . "
