Woodland Beach
Liner notes
Write a nostalgic folk song about Woodland Beach, Michigan, a small community on the shores of Lake Erie. Sing about the old 1930s cottages that were once summer getaways, now standing year-round against the winter winds. Mention the community gatherings at the old log cabin clubhouse in Indian Beach and the summer fireworks over the lake.
