We almost bought the third house south off of Ohara on Collingswood last year. Big beautiful house with a great waterfront view. There's a few empty waterfront lots next to it. Lot of house for the money and a huge lot. I think it sold for 375ish. We thought it was too big for us to snowbird in, and I was kind of concerned about leaving it for 6 months empty as the area was kind of remote. I remember the realtor telling me it was about 20 minutes to the harbor. How far is that actually kwiktsi?

That house just sold a few months ago. Never been in it but nice house from the outside. I've never timed the trip, but definitely more than 20 minutes from here, probably closer to 45 since it is all no wake. Our realtor told us about 20-25 mins also, but I was renting down on Petoskey (last street on Collingswood) for a year, so I knew better lol. I see people "cheating" quite often and it doesn't bother me, but there are definitely some nosey "canal nazis" back here that I see yelling at everyone for anything.

Did you happen to stop and ask me how long of a trip it us when you were looking by any chance? I was outside one day and someone stopped to ask how long to the harbor by boat, they were looking to buy back here.
