About Here On Lake Huron

As a true Pisces, Krista has always been drawn to water. When her Dad was diagnosed with stage 4 melanoma in 2015, Krista started taking her Mom on mini road trips to the beach. Her dad’s illness was wearing her Mom down. As his primary caregiver, she was exhausted and overwhelmed. Before they left the driveway, Krista would tell her Mom that we were only going to think happy thoughts, plan their hopes and dreams and enjoy what the day had to bring. Their road trips became an outlet that was free of stress and heartache. It allowed them to dream big dreams and escape reality. Week after week, they found themselves on the shores of Lake Huron. The Lake pulled them in, and they felt its energy and love. It was like a warm blanket. They’d sit in the car listening to the waves and watching the seagulls. They’d marvel at the Lake’s greatness, and felt free. If only for a short while. Here On Lake Huron was born and developed during their mini road trips to the beach. It’s an ode to the Lake’s majesticness and beauty. It’s a nod to the communities that surround it and helped (and continue to help) them heal. It’s a bow to the people who live on its shores and the establishments they frequent. It’s a great big THANK YOU for helping them feel ‘home.’ But more importantly, Here on Lake Huron is a salute to Krista’s Dad. Sadly, Krista’s Dad passed away in 2020 - six months prior to Here On Lake Huron’s launch. “I miss you Dad with all my heart. I promise to make you proud.”Read their story
