Out here where Musgrove and Sunfield highways intersect, you're sitting on land—lots of it, with average lots running north of 27 acres each across the 23,000-acre spread. Spring Lake abuts the area, giving water access without the urban sprawl that usually comes with it. Logan Street Park lies less than a mile away if you want something more manicured, though honestly the property itself is the main draw. A restaurant lands about 1.8 miles down the road, and the nearest grocery is 3.2 miles, which means you're committed to the drive but not stranded. Gerald R. Ford airport sits roughly 47 minutes away—close enough for actual travel, far enough that you won't hear planes overhead.
