    "I’ve lived in the Village of Fountain for over 40 years. I have seen the high lights in the eighties and the down slide of the 2008-2016. The area has a lo5 to offer and needs an infusion of young progressive people willing to work. It can again be a great place to raise a family!"

    "Quiet and quaint country setting with trustworthy, caring neighbors. Very safe and comfortable place to raise a family. School system is quite nice with newer faciilities and teachers there are vested in the children. 4 miles outside of small town of Fountain with restaurant, bank, and gas station. Shopping and nightlife 22 miles away in Ludington. Also approx 25 miles South east of Manistee Michigan. Really great location. "
