What exactly is a “Cedar Haven Reader?”

Good question! For years I’ve enjoyed jotting down little snippets and stories that revolve around my family’s beloved Cedar Haven, our island summer cottage nestled along the pristine northern shores of Lake Huron.

If you get a kick out of sandy cottage floors, clear lakes, old wooden docks, or boat wakes, you just might enjoy these.

Check back every once in a while for new postings (I’ve got a lot of ’em) or follow along for updates when they come out. Thanks for reading and let me know if you have any thoughts to share!
