My husband and I love living in Michigan and sharing its beauty. He’s an avid cyclist and is happy to give recommendations. I love to swim and sew. We both love to walk and hike. I am a vegetarian. He is an omnivore, so we can cover a full range of food preferences recommendations.

LakesideTerri's Pets
We have a 15 pound rescue dog who is a terrier/shih tzu mix. She is very friendly, only barks when someone knocks, and LOVES to chase after a ball.
LakesideTerri's Hometown
We live in the country on a lovely, little, no-wake lake so there are no fast boats to run you over while you swim, paddle board or kayak. There are 2 major grocery stores and propane available within 10 minutes of us so restocking is easy. We are less than a mile from a major trailhead for walking/running/cycling. Horseback riding is available about 10 minutes away. We are 30 minutes from Ann Arbor, where we lived for over 30 years and know well, 20 minutes from Brighton, and 15 minutes from Dexter. We lived in Ann Arbor for over 30 years.

Terri was a really nice quest..
We would love to have her back for another stay. She is fun to talk to and loves my animals. Her dog was well behaved and very cute.

Nice and Quiet
Nice couple stayed a few nights. Hardly noticed they were here. Cute little puppy liked to play ball. Interesting things about Great Lakes were shared too,never too old to learn. Welcome back anytime.

Awesome couple and now friends!
There are many that we meet as boondocking hosts that we enjoy their company and would gladly welcome them back and then there are those that you meet who you really have a kinship with and you feel like you have known them forever. The day of this couple was so much fun and not only do we hope to see them again at our place, we hope to visit them at theirs.

Super nice guest.
This was their first "Boondockers Welcome" experience and they don't need any training, they were perfect guests. Their little dog is really cute and well trained. They are welcome back anytime.

Lovely Place
Awesome Hosts. They were wonderful and very welcoming. They have a beautiful location next to a lake. Communication was great before and during our stay. Would definitely stay here again.

Great Spot
Our hosts were very gracious host and the spot was everything we could ask for. The cold weather prevented us from enjoying the lake but we were able to visit one of our family members and go to a wonderful restaurant, The Wooden Spoon in Brighton.
Overall a very good stay for us.

Relaxed, peaceful and friendly stay
Terri was very welcoming and flexible. She helped make my first BW stay a wonderful experience. Lakeside is a great place to relax after a busy day, or if you want water activities there is a paddle boat available to see the peaceful lake. I am looking forward to more BW stays in the future.

Twice is Nice!
Same great hostess treated us to a swim in the lake after a long day on the road! This made it our second visit at this very pleasant site! Once coming and once going! Both times were most enjoyable!

Relaxing retreat!
Wonderful, gracious hosts!! Offered their electric hookup & water, and use of the lake amenities - standup paddle board, floaties, paddle boat, and kayak. We had great communication before & during my stay. Their property is absolutely beautiful and the lake is so nice to swim in. This is an excellent place for a little getaway and I had a great time here!

Paradise
This place should be called “Peaceful Paradise”! The hosts were wonderful and couldn’t do enough for us. The lake is clean and relaxing. You can swim, paddle or just float. We did all three! Undoubtedly 5 stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!

Absolutely perfect
This was our first experience and could not have been better. The hosts met us and shared their boondocking tips. Thank you Lakeside Terri!

Please adopt us!
Everytime I stay with BW I think, "This is the best place ever!" but today hit a new high! My niece still wants to be adopted! We had such a delightful time. We swam, paddle boated, SUP'ed, complete with paddle and a life vest! The lake, the chat, the lightning bugs! You made our visit so special! We couldn't have asked for a better mini summer vacation. Thanks Lakeside Terri for making our trip super fun!

Peaceful lake and kayaking!
Hello, had a lovely time at Terri’s. This is on a no-wake lake with quiet areas to paddle their kayak. I had a warm invitation to use the terrace area with heavenly lake breeze, to rock and breathe in fresh country air. There are hiking trails and state parks in a short drive, as well as a good size grocery store. Thanks for everything!!

Therapy
At Lakeside Terri's I could feel the tension from the past isolated months melting away as I took up their offer to use their paddleboat (first time) on that beautiful lake, and later the kayak (first time). Loved it. They are wonderful people with a wonderful dog Zoey. I fished, explored, hiked, relaxed, and felt safe and welcome. Thank you Lakeside Terri.
