On a recent visit to Charlevoix, my family wandered inside and looked around at all of the fabulous gifts and home accessories. We were heading to catch a flight back to Phoenix, and had zero additional room in our suitcases, otherwise, we probably would have found plenty to purchase. We also said hello to the official store greeter, Ella - she is adorable! Whether you're on the hunt for a gift, something for your own lake house or want to bring a taste of Charlevoix to a friend or family member, you're sure to find what you're looking for and more at The Lake House!

We always hit Cherry Republic (which is down the street) and then, while my husband let's the kids run around in the (beautifully redone) park across the street - I head to Imagine That to take it all in. The place inspires in me what my husband refers to the "Target-Thousand-Yard Stare" - which apparently the look I get on my face when I browse the aisles of Target, child free. (You know what I'm talking about, fellow moms ;). The shop is beautifully curated. You know that whoever does the buying for this place puts a tremendous amount of heart into the items they select. There are seasonal items like graduation gifts, Mother's/Father's Day presents, and even Christmas ornaments that are perfect souvenirs to remind you of beautiful Glen Arbor in all its summertime glory when you're putting up your Christmas tree in December. They have home decor, coffee table books and a nice selection of candles. They also carry beautifully designed jewelry and a stylish selection of scarves. Imagine That is a small shop, but with its charm and splendor of goods - I always manage to get lost. :).

Now I have a new sofa I absolutely love, thanks to Missy! I can tell you from experience, QM stands behind their products. Plus, the installers were great!

They had an amazing bench made of concrete, but looked like wood, for $2,000. Plus an super detailed metal bird bath for almost $800. Is the art worth it, of course that's in the eye of the beholder, I think it is. Overall a 5 star review. Would I return? You betcha! Especially if I made a much better wage. Once again it is an outstanding collection art.
