We abandoned our off grid cabin...

- Two years ago we purchased a remote off grid cabin on 80 acres in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan sight unseen.
We realized it wasn’t what we wanted and found our dream homestead on 40 acres just down the road!
Come take a look at all the PERKS this new place has to offer!
Sorry I’m advance but wife and daughters are absent in this video as they had to make an emergency trip down state. She explains why in a post on our Community tab. Feel free to check it out if you are curious. - Zábava
Nice place ! I cant wait for the yard sale
Lol yeah same here! Need the space and $$$ is good too
Common Dave is that all you got. Man of few words.
me2 :)
So happy you finally found your new home with land. At least you won't have to battle your old road in the winter anymore.
I love the gambrel barn type roof on their house : )
Well, young man, I have to say I was getting a bit concerned about "my off grid family" so I'm quite happy to see you've improved your situation! Congratulations!!! I'm also glad to hear that your health is improved too... your family needs you in top shape so please try to lower the stress levels! As for the new homestead, heck yeah!! Lots and lots of real potential!!!! Hope your lovely wife and those beautiful young ladies are even more pumped about this incredible situation!! I'd say you have been more blessed, young man! Very, VERY happy for you all! (Hope the water situation is much better here!!!) Take care, young man, be safe and God bless you, even more!🇺🇸👍
Thank you Jim. Yes the wife and kids are very pumped! We are all more than ready for this new chapter and ready to start living for more than just survival! I hope you’re doing well and it’s always great to hear from you! Take care Jim.
so agree :)

when i started watching your channel i was amazed by you and your families tenacity in the face of what appeared to be overwhelming odds. it seemed you guys never got a break and probably like many if not most of your subs i worried about you all. so this vid put a smile ear to ear and absolutely made my day, i couldn't be more happy for folks i've never met and don't even know : )
❤️ We couldn’t ask for a better (Sub) family. You have no idea how much you guys all inspire and help us keep pushing forward. Take care
It's so awesome and heart warming to see how many of our subs are happy with our decision to move. ❤
You guys hit the jackpot with your new casa! 😅 im very happy for you all. I liked everything but the music. Lol that sucked but prob bc im older. I just turned the sound off most of time. God bless you guys. Ik you guys will be more happier here. Pls try & decrease your stress level. Stress truly kills! Its not a good thing as you just recently found out! You all have much to look forward to. Hope you sold your old place! Take care!
@@dlspiritdancer9548 thank you. And sorry about the music but the words were touching to me for this time in my life. Have to get outside the box every chance we get.
@@9252LIFE I'm an old dude and love the music, especially the lyrics...it speaks volumes. I'm so happy for you guys! A wonderful place with many challenges to come for the family, good luck.
Absolutely awesome. Congratulations!!! Can’t wait to see more videos. Also we’ll continue to pray for your wife’s family.
Thank you John
I have been so concerned about y’all!
Me too!
I've been praying for them.
Thank you and sorry for being absent for so long
❤️
❤️ thank you
Wow!! What a property!!! I love the house!!! When I saw the shop I was about to advice you to turn the shop into a house for now until I saw the house!!! Wow! Wow! Wow! That must be a story for another day! The girls plus their mum deserve it! Cant wait to see and hear more. Congratulations and you all deserve the warm sleep you are now getting. I love your family bro. God bless you!
Thank you John. Yes lots of story’s for you coming soon!
Hi Chad I am so happy for you. So happy for you I almost could cry. You finally got a good break what a beautiful house. I don't know what to say beautiful piece of property hope you have a spot you can fish that'll be fun wonderful wonderful wonderful. It's amazing you and your family are amazin😃
Thank you Valinda
I had to wait for the tears of joy to clear from my eyes so I could see the keyboard on my tablet to make this comment. You guys have roughed it so hard for so long you totally deserve this new place! Amazing & awesome! Well played starting from worst & going to best lol! Bleeding ulcer though ... been there myself. With this new location I'm sure you can take better care of yourself & your beautiful family. I'm so relieved & happy!!!!
❤️ Awwwweeee! Thank you Mams! I hope you’re doing well. Take care
I’m just aching inside for you witi all that hard work and time and money spent trying to make something work that just wasn’t going to from the beginning is just hard man . God leads us into suffering sometimes brotha .
You are way more patient than I am . And your teaching your daughters that . Love it . Stay positive my man !! Tell the girls hello !
It was a great experience. But definitely glad it’s over
Congratulations, what a nice place. The house looks amazing and the barn just awesome. So happy for you guys. Well deserved!!!
Thank you Stacy
Crazy happy for y’all!!
I grew up a very remote area of south Australia as a child & vividly remember the struggle with everyday life. SO, SO happy y’all have found a better piece of property!! ✌️❤️
Congratulations 🎉 on finding a better place!
Thank you
Congratulations 🎈🎉🍾🎊
I can’t wait to see the finish products 💪😊
Another off grid adventures for your family
I was about to get a skillet out to hit you over the head with, when I saw the first place.😟. So happy y’all have a warm, secure and accessible house to live in. I promise you that your CZcams numbers will skyrocket if you put out more frequent videos. Would love to hear what the kids have to say about all this. So happy for you.👍👏🏻💝⛄️
😂 don’t worry we’re going all out CZcams craZy!! 😆
I almost died from a stressed induced ulcer that bust and left a dime size hole im my stomach. Stress is a real killer. Glad your doin good now
Wow! You all must be elated! You have all been so tough these past couple years, but you got to have water. What an amazing experience it’s been. Thanks for sharing. Cannot wait to see inside your new home!! So exciting!
Amazing property and potential, can’t wait to see the home, your wife and girls reactions to it all and most of all what you do with it!! Stay healthy and feel blessed 🙏🏻👍🏻
Im so happy for your family! More adventures to come the other place may of just been a stepping stone but you all have so much knowledge from the last 2 years. I look forward to seeing more.
Chad! This is so awesome! You put so much on yourself with the other property and I could tell that you were trying to make the best out of a bad situation. You weren't hiding your emotions very well or should I say you weren't fooling nobody! Here, you can start getting everything how you want it and you already have a built in construction crew to help get things rolling. Much love to all of you for a new beginning.
Thank you Julie. Yes that overwhelming feeling was a butt kicker!
Congratulations on the new property!! Glad to see you guys back and healthy. Sending prayers for your wife’s family!! Looking forward to new adventures and videos on the new place !! Stay safe !!
Thank you Ryan.
That is awesome!! I'm so happy for you and your family. I can't wait for a tour of the house and the rest of the propert come summer (or spring). Are the girls now in their own rooms? If so, I'll bet they're upset. 😊 No more worries about a well, and it looks like once you get some stuff relocated from the pole building, you're going to have an amazing shop. Life will be nicer. Again, so happy for you and the family.
Thank you Gary! Yes the older two share a room and the younger two share one.
You don’t know how relieve I am that you and the girls are moving to a better property! I was worried about you guys!
Excited to see what you do with this property!
OH MY GOODNESS!!!! Chad I'm so stinking HAPPY for you and your girls. What a beautiful property. You all certainly deserve it after the year you've had.I'm super excited to see what is next. Congratulations God Bless.
Thank you Lorraine
Your new place and house is beautiful, Chad! After all the struggles you’ve had, I’m so happy for you 🥰
Thank you Cathy! How have you been?
Wait... there's a house? We're still stuck on the fact that we have a well... 😬😄
@@naomijo8736 true! 😂
I’ve been following your journey. So happy for you guys to have found a better fit for your family!
Thank you
I’m so inspired livin on the edge in Cali. God Bless you and your family. 🙏✝️🛡️🇺🇸❤️
That is so cool! I'm so happy for you and your family!! Take care, my friend and enjoy the rest of your life to the fullest. NOTHING is worth making yourself sick over...NOTHING (except your wife and girls)!
What a blessing 🙌🏽, happy for you and the family... We will be waiting foe the house tour video...congratulations!!
You’ll get that video soon!
Hey Chad and Naomi, WOW! Congratulations on the new property. It looks beautiful so happy for you all. Are you still in the same area of the U.P. ? Can’t wait to see what you do with all that land. Gardening is going to be so much easier. You are blessed. Hey Chad take care of yourself your health is important. My hubby was in the hospital for 5 days with serious stomach and intestinal issue in February he’s much better now but it was scary. Glad your doing much better. Take care I missed you guys.
Hi Cheryl thank you! Yea we’re near our off grid cabin. We’re excited about gardening this year!
Wonderful, thank you for sharing this with us today from Henrico County Virginia
So happy for you and your family, just what ya'll needed.
Congratulations on the home I’m glad to see you and the family are safe and the new property looks like a lot of potential I hope one day to be doing the same
Thank you
That's just AWESOME Chad ❤👍 sweet layout indeed. 40 acres of manageable forest and farm land I'm happy for you all can't hardly wait for more videos😁✌🙏
Thank you Jim! We’ll be posting much more! Take care
Stumbled across your channel and this was the first video I saw. Don't know anything about you and when you took us on a tour of the cabin, I just shook my head and said he can't be serious. I smiled at the end when I saw the house. All you need now is a river to go fishing. I assume there is fishing since there was fishing rods in the pole barn. What a great piece of property! I will follow to see where this channel takes us.
So happy for you all!! 😄😄😄(but also very sorry to hear you’ve been so unwell, hope you’re on the mend now and feeling better). Exciting times ahead. ❤️😊
Congratulations. Happy for you. Prayers to your wife’s family, I pray they heal quickly. Peace
Thank you Joseph
Prayers for your family. Peace

Best of luck to you all

Happy to hear you are better. The new place looks great can’t wait to see it with the snow gone and greened up. I hope you continue giving video updates on how the place progresses. From your walking tour the new place looks great with plenty of potential. Lots of luck in the future
Thank you Lee. We’ll definitely continue our CZcams journey as we’ve really built a great family in this community. Take care

Congratulations! You definitely made the right decision. Your and your family’s health has to come first. I look forward to following you guys in this new adventure.
Thank you
Super stoked for you and the fam. The little we got to see looked like a rough 2 years, but your family and your channel have a very strong and entertaining quality about them both. I'm so happy that Yah has restored your health so quickly, and my heart leapt for joy when you showed your new home. Congratulations!
Thank you Stephen! Our great Father looks out after all of us for sure. He really like to test me though.. 😆
I know the feeling man & they say no more then we can handle but great to see you handling it 😁
What a dream home, with ensuite bathroom and a telly in the master bedroom! Hope you're feeling better!

Thank you Michael!
What a beautiful new chapter for your family💛 happy to hear you are all safe and looking forward to following this new journey😊🙏
Thank you Mary
Have been wondering where you have been.So good to see that you and your family are safe and heathy (?) and that your family has a comfortable place to live. You gave your last property the good fight, but were smart enough to walk away from the impossible project with knowledge and experience and drive, and maybe a little sadness, to make this new life everything you and your family have been working so hard for. You're a hell of a man with a terrific family. Thanks for sharing your story. I hope that we'll be seeing more episodes regularly.
Thank you.
I watched this one again and laughed some much at “house tour” of that little shack. So funny. Happy the real new homestead is working out so well for you!
This new place has been great! Definitely don’t miss the old place!
What an upgrade!!! Amazing and beautiful property, congratulations for the wise choice to move your family. I can't wait to see your new challenges and work.
Thank you
I lived in the UP...completely understand! I'm so loving your new place! (full disclosure: I'm totally jealous!)
Can’t wait to see that amazing new home of yours 😀⭐️
My husband and I are from Michigan. Grew up in the country below the thumb, very bottom near Ohio. We moved cuz it’s way too cold there. I guess we were called Trolls cuz we lived Under the bridge, LOL
Our grandparents had cabins up north that we visited for dear hunting season.
We love your Hebrew beard.
I imagine the property was pretty cheap. The politics n weather aren’t easy to deal with.
Turn to YaH for The Greatest Peace. Much Ahabah to all of you.
Lol thank you Joyce. Your comment about my Hebrew beard was the highlight of our day today as we gathered at our Shabbat. I had never known there to be a Hebrew beard besides that crazy lookin one with the curls down past the ears. 😆 We actually grew up in lower Michigan as well. Fremont in the Midwest.
Congratulations!!! Can’t wait to see more videos. I'm so happy for you guys, the new property looks awesome!!!
Thank you Ernest
SO, SO happy for you and your family!! Now you can get on with your CZcams family and really enjoy yourself. Looking forward to seeing how you fix up this property. Really missed your weekly vlogs. Hoping you’re still out there so nobody bothers you. Looking forward to the next chapter!!! Good Luck.
Thanks Kevin. Yes we’re still out there a ways even with the paved road! Lol. We’ll be posting much more often now! Take care
@@9252LIFE I hope you guys are closer to Girl in the Woods and Dave. They are GREAT people and I hope they can be closer to your family.
I’m sooooooo happy for you guys! You deserve this and much more!

I think my favorite find in the garage was the beautiful old stove:) …then the dirt bike… congratulations on your new land!
So excited for your new adventure!!
Absolutely awesome. So happy for you guys. I know the last property became an absolute stress filled nightmare. You gave it your best and knew when it was time to pull the plug and move on. I'm so happy for all you guys. I know the ladies must be so happy. Good luck and congrats. No need to hang your head over the last chapter. It simply got you to this new one. Keep the faith and have fun. That shop is awesome. Our Homestead is 40 acres as well. Take care.
Thank you guys.
That is awesome!!! Congratulations!!! This is a beautiful piece of property. And I am sure already your stress level is way down. Can't wait to see what you guys do with it. Thank you for sharing the new place, love it and so happy for you and your family 😊
Thanks guys! The stress I think is down quite a bit but we’re still a bit overwhelmed.
I kept waking for the punchline. Lol. Congrats to you and your family. Living up north in Michigan during the winter can be a big challenge off grid especially. Enjoy your new homestead. ❤️
Thank you Reena
Wow man! Your off grid property is amazing you got a nice clean slate to work with now I can’t wait to see what you guys do with it in the future!! I hope your feeling better it’s crazy what stress can do! I’ve been stressing a lot lately and started having bad panic attacks out of nowhere, never even had one till just recently. I’m really excited for you and your family!
Our house is on grid. Keep the stress down Jared. Take care
