What catches people off-guard about Garbow Plat is how water-centric it feels despite being a small, 14-acre subdivision—Kettle Lake sits just a tenth of a mile away, and Campau Lake's public access and boat launch are close enough for a quick morning run. Homes average 0.45 acres, run around $515K, and the area feeds into Caledonia Community Schools. An 18-restaurant corridor within a mile means dinner is a 5-minute walk, though the nearest grocery requires a 3.9-mile drive.
