The Shoreline Of Lake Michigan is a fictional map roughly based on the northwest tip of the lower peninsula of Michigan. Sandy soil near the lake, extreme weather, steep northern forests and the shoreline scenery create a challenging farming and forestry environment.
The map includes dairy farming, traditional crop farming, fruit orchards, greenhouses and a bee garden for harvesting honey. There are a total of 43 fields and 113 farmlands that can be purchased.
Features
- Five prebuilt farms can be bought.
- The main farm is set up for crop farming with a small sheep barn and chicken coop.
- The main farm includes a preplanted alfalfa field to provide food for the sheep.
- Three other farms are dairy farms of different sizes, including one with a separate pasture containing water buffalo.
- The last prebuilt farm is a rustic farm with older-style buildings.
- Standalone houses can be purchased if you want to start from scratch or upgrade your house.

If you have the Highlands pack, you will have access to a boat here. It cannot be sold, and if reset, it will not return to its start point. If playing multiplayer, only the host will have access to it. All other players will not be able to access the boat. It will be under the map for them.
You can play around with the boat or go fishing on Lake Michigan.
