Northern Michigan has long been a place of beauty, relaxation, and unforgettable memories. From the charming downtown streets of Petoskey to the serene waterfront of Glen Arbor, this region is the heart of Michigan’s vacation culture. At PR Design Build, we are thrilled to announce that we are extending our award-winning design and build services to second home and lakehouse owners across Charlevoix, Traverse City, Harbor Springs, Manistee, and beyond.
A Natural Next Step for PR Design Build
For years we have had the privilege of helping families in West Michigan design and remodel their homes with a focus on comfort, quality, and craftsmanship. Many of our clients own second homes or vacation cottages in Northern Michigan, and as their needs have grown, so has our desire to serve them better. This expansion allows us to bring our expertise in custom design and renovation directly to the region where so many of our clients escape to unwind.
A second home or vacation home should feel like a retreat. It should offer peace, convenience, and the ability to make lasting memories with family and friends. By extending our services north, we can provide homeowners with everything from full remodels to custom design build projects that make their lakehouse dreams a reality.
Why Remodeling in Northern Michigan Matters
The lifestyle in Northern Michigan is unique. Whether you are spending your days boating on Lake Charlevoix, skiing near Harbor Springs, or simply enjoying a sunset over Lake Michigan, your home should complement the way you live. Many lakefront cottages and vacation homes in the area were built decades ago. While they hold charm and nostalgia, they often lack the modern functionality and design that today’s homeowners expect.
We understand the importance of honoring the character of a Northern Michigan property while introducing thoughtful updates that make it easier to enjoy. Our approach balances respect for history with innovative design solutions. From refreshing outdated kitchens to expanding outdoor living spaces, our work reflects both the natural surroundings and the lifestyle you envision.
Services Designed for Lakehouse Living
As we expand into Northern Michigan, we are bringing with us a full range of services designed to enhance the second home experience. Homeowners can rely on us for everything from additions and complete remodels to creating signature outdoor spaces that maximize waterfront views.
Imagine a lakehouse that feels completely personalized to your family. That may mean a custom kitchen with lake views, a modernized living space that blends indoor and outdoor living, or a deck designed for evenings spent under the stars. Our lakeshore living expertise ensures that every project is thoughtfully tailored to its location. And for those who want to enjoy Northern Michigan’s natural beauty year-round, our outdoor living designs create patios, porches, and gathering spaces that make the most of every season.
Key areas we focus on include:
- Modernizing outdated floor plans to improve flow and function
- Expanding outdoor entertaining spaces for lakefront gatherings
- Preserving the unique charm of older cottages while adding modern convenience
Each project begins with your vision, and our team works closely with you to design a solution that elevates your second home experience.
Building a Lasting Presence in the Community
Our decision to expand into Northern Michigan is more than just a business move. It reflects our commitment to the communities we serve. Places like Traverse City and Manistee are more than vacation destinations. They are vibrant towns with strong traditions and a shared appreciation for the natural world.
By establishing our presence in this region, we look forward to not only working with homeowners but also building meaningful partnerships with local craftspeople, suppliers, and organizations. We are here to be part of the community, not just a company working within it.
