I searched high and low for the perfect driving school. I called several companies and asked too…read moremany questions. As a homeschool mom I am extremely picky. I wanted someone who did not cut corners for the sake of a paycheck. I also wanted someone who would gladly invite myself or my husband into the class and on the drives. I desired someone who was trustworthy and moral. My driver instructor smelled of alcohol when I took the class years ago. I wanted someone who understands who the parents are and are equally respectful of that. Mostly I wanted someone that would take this seriously and really teach my child all she needed to learn to be a successful driver. And my expectations were more then met. I live in the sticks and have to drive over an hour to get here. But it is worth it!! I hear what our local kids get out of drivers training. It's usually not very good. More of a distracted course where they learn very little and don't even see a highway. At this academy Chris does a great job. I've referred her to my homeschool and non-homeschool friends and family members. She met all my crazy criteria and then some. She is a very kind hearted lady. And she takes her responsibilities very seriously. No corners cut. She understands if she misses something, she has to live with that. I will be back in a year with my next child. Already have 3 others planning on attending with me. She is great!! I highly recommend Chris!!

Cost is reasonable and the instructors are good. Very convenient hours. I definately give them a…read morehigh recommendation.

Went in to check the place out, after seeing some less than impressive reviews online elsewhere…read more Everybody was super nice, the place was clean, reasonable rates, and like the other reviewer mentioned, better hours than the other driving school I was considering for my son. The woman that taught was really nice and did a great job teaching my son how to drive (he can parallel park better than me in our dodge 1500). Id say definitely stop over if your considering a class for your child. They are local, did good work, and I really appreciate their patience with my old fashioned ways! Thank ya!

My experience (March 2023) with Wilderness Christian Testing involved my 16 yr. old nephew who…read moreneeded to complete a "Road Test" to finish his driver's education and obtain a Michigan driver's license. Robin & Mark who operate the business were terrific to work with. Robin was efficient and professional regarding scheduling the test and Mark was equally polite and professional in administering the road test. The cost of the test was very competitive with other companies offering the same service. I do know that they also offer testing for other licensing such as CDL's. I highly recommend Mark & Robin's business if you live near Mancelona or Kalkaska, MI. I live in Traverse City and would recommend making the drive Kalkaska.

This is a cute little farm that has goats (I saw one nursing!), chickens, ducklings and I think…read morethere was a pony. There was also the friendliest little dog who apparently belongs to neighbors but he likes to come over and greet people. The store sells soap, lotion, cheese as well as frozen pizza, pot pies, fruit pies and flavored butter, all of which, I believe, are made on site. The young woman who was running the store was very friendly and welcoming.

Everything was so delicious, we ended up buying a couple house made chèvre and feta. They also sell different goat soaps and lotions. But my favorite part was walking around the property and hanging out with all the barn kitties, chickens, and goats! The staff here were so friendly and welcoming. I'm definitely adding this place to stop back to in the summer.
