🚨 IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR BIG PINE ISLAND LAKE RESIDENTS 🚨
A new development, “Orchards on Two Lakes,” is proposed for the land between Chapin Lake and Big Pine Island Lake, near Dream Isle Drive (Sections 3 & 4).
The developer is requesting approval for 29 residential units on this narrow strip of land — with shared lake access and 9 docks for all 29 homes to use and have boats.
This creates illegal keyhole/funneling access and raises significant concerns about:
→ Lake overuse & dock congestion
→ Environmental impact & stormwater runoff into both lakes
→ Road safety & emergency access
→ Sewer system capacity and infrastructure load
→ Loss of rural character & increased density between two lakes
→ A long-term precedent for more high-density lake developments

This affects everyone on Big Pine Island Lake and Chapin Lake.

🚨 FOUND KITTEN ON DREAMISLE — PLEASE SHARE 🚨

This sweet little orange kitten was found on Dreamisle two days ago. He’s very friendly, healthy, and clearly used to being around people — so we’re hoping someone in our Big Pine Island community recognizes him.

He was taken to the vet, but he has no microchip and wasn’t wearing a collar.

If this is your kitten, or if you know who he belongs to, please contact us so we can help get him home. ❤️🐾

Please share so we can reunite him with his family!

Hey all you Woodland Park neighbors, we have someone missing a package on that road or an adjacent road in the area. There is a package for 12200 woodland park drive Belding mi 48809. It’s probably a small cardboard box from Nazareth pottery.
If you have received this in error please contact us so we can get it to its rightful owner.
Thank you, BPILA

We received a pretty Cool message today from Rachael McCarty on Woodland Park:
Good afternoon,
I wanted to share a cool video I took this morning. Early before it was light out, I saw a shadowy figure swimming in the lake out to the second cattail/ marsh land in front of our house off Woodland Park Dr. It got out of the water very close to where the loons had made their nest this summer. As it got out of the water, I realized it was a deer. The deer was hidden from sight on the marsh land for about an hour, and then around 8:20 this morning I saw the buck, now clear as day, swimming back to shore before taking off running. I’m hoping you can post this video on the page for others to see. I’ve never seen deer swimming on this lake before!

Good Job Rachael ! Thanks for Sharing!
