"We wanted a home with organized and functional space and Up North character.  We started with a wish list of features like a mud room, a big laundry room, a spacious pantry, and open, casual space we could all enjoy.  Chuck and Abby had so many great ideas to help us create a home that is both beautiful and faimly-friendly. We all love it!"

"Dear Chuck,
    Thank you for all that you did in seeing that a high quality and beautiful home was built for us. We have lived here three years and there is nothing we would want to have been done differently. I especially want to thank you, Chuck, for the perfect placement of the house on the property..."

"I enjoy the building process" say Chuck, "and I wanted to continue building homes when my wife Abby and our kids moved to Northern Michigan but . . . on a more personal level with my customer. So we began Durango Homes."  The Durango Homes company has been in existence since 2003 in Benzie County.



Chuck and Abby Beale's prior company in the Rockford, Michigan area began in 1989. Proof of their success can be found in the many, high demand home communities the company developed.
