What About The "Caboose"? - The Franklin "Caboose Style" Home is a very unique (copyrighted) design. It's basically a luxury cottage designed to look similar to a Classic Train Caboose. It has a living room w/fireplace, 1 bathroom w/2-person Jacuzzi, 2 bedrooms (1 bedroom upstairs in cupola is closed off for storage), kitchen with custom built dinette, hardwood floor in kitchen, carpet thru-out, 5 skylights, 2 ceiling fans, cathedral ceilings, 2 bay windows etc. There are accommodations to sleep 5.
The Design was inspired by a real train caboose at Crossroads Village in Flint. It was built (year 2000) proudly by the owner with help and encouragement from his father. "I'm very proud of my design, its original, very functional and its fun. The Classic Train Caboose has been around for over 150 years and I intend to help make sure this classic design is not forgotten!

Situated on 4 private wooded acres next to Muskallonge Lake State Park and on a 35’ bluff overlooking both a 3 acre pond (with stairway and walkway) and the always beautiful Lake Superior. Ownership of 200’ beach frontage just a minutes walk (approx. 500’) down from the cottage brings you access to miles of remote yet beautiful agate stone/sandy Lake Superior beach. Very few beaches offer this kind of privacy and seclusion with very little development and no high rise condos to spoil the vistas. Where else can you watch a summer sunrise and sunset on the same beach. The fury and splendor of Lake Superior are yours to experience here.
