Mike Kantola

Mike is co-owner of Third Coast Builders, Inc. When not on the job, Mike generally escapes to the remote corners of the Upper Peninsula where he enjoys trout fishing, saunas at camp, and long skis through wild lands. He also plays guitar and bass in several local bands.

He and his wife Mindy are in the process of building an off-grid home on Lake Superior. In true Finnish tradition, the sauna is the first building.
