I recently purchased some land in Michigan. Not alot, about 1/2 an acre, but it is within walking distance of a nice lake and within 13 miles of lake Michigan.
The lot is in the woods and there are no utilities to the property. I can build on it, park an RV, or camp on it. I was thinking about building a garden shed like you see at Lowes, they look like a small barn. (Maybe 8x10 in size with a loft.) Put it on Railroad ties so there wouldn't be any foundation. (Hence no building permits. I believe.) Figured it might make a nice weekend get away. I would bring in water and a chemical toilet. I have solar power to add to it. Propane stove to cook on.
Do I have it covered? Any thoughts, ideas or suggestions on this?
