Jen and Dar were gracious hosts. It was very peaceful and they shared their vegetable garden with us. We love it here. Midland is a great place estif you like Midcentury Moden houses. Alden B Dow house and the gardens is a must see but do drive around - there is an app MCMM MidCenturyModernMidland. It is great if you like this type if architecture - we do. Thank you Ken and Dar fir a wonderful stay.

Our hosts were very accommodating. They met us as we drove up and guided us in to their great backyard spot. We are so thankful for folks like these who offer up their yards and share their stories. Thanks so much for an easy in and out!
