· 4 guests max

26 acres of forest, wetlands, pasture, creeks, and a pond. We are a working farm: raising goats, and chickens. We live on site. We are also a County destination as a Petting Farm by appointment; providing personalized and private tours of our farm. Home to dogs, cats, miniature pigs, miniature horse, chickens, ducks, guinea fowl, goats, rabbits, a small cow, and guinea pigs. The camp site is tucked in off the main road nearly 300 feet but accessed from our driveway. It is a 45 x 15' gravel pad behind a row of trees that runs parallel to the drive. If you park facing west your doors will be facing an old growth forest in which lies a beautiful sandy bottom creek that flows in to Lake Leelanau. We provide an off-the-ground fire pit. Wood is available for purchase at the roadside stand. When the chickens are laying we have fresh eggs available as well for sale. Potable water is available at the barn. We do provide a porta potty at the barn, as well as, filtered well water at the barn. Wineries, water, and distilleries abound in every direction. Many are within walking and biking distance. The farm is walking distance to Lake Leelanau and Schneider township park. Walking/hiking trails are available throughout the property and nearby areas. Provemont Pond which lies across M-204 is a lovely natural area with many trails. Shopping or rock hunting in historic Fishtown, aka, Leland is 6 minutes by car, a bit longer by bike. We are just minutes to several Lake Michigan beaches, Suttons Bay and Northport. Drive 25 minutes to Traverse City to the Southeast or 33 minutes Southwest to Sleeping Bear Dune climb and the quaint village of Empire. Lots to enjoy for the foodies as well. Aside from the many wineries and distilleries, you can find Nittollos italian fare and stone fired pizza. Dicks Pour House where all the locals go, and Fiddleheads which features many local farm foods in their pop-up weekend menus. In Leland you can dine at The Cove, or Leland Lodge. For quick bites try The Sandwich Shoppe and Carlsons smoked fish during the late spring/summer/early fall times. Fischers Happy Hour on hour way to Northport has the best broasted chicken around. And the VI Grille in Suttons Bay has enough delicious appetizers you could make a meal.Located near our newly erected red barn. You are welcome to walk about the property and trails, say hello to the farm animals, walk or bike to the lake or to any of the winery and distillery tasting rooms within a mile radius. Fire pit is located near pond and you are welcome to use it. Please leave $ for firewood in green box at wood stand as you enter driveway.

Farm Tour experience

$20.00

Join us for a relaxing, fun and educational tour of JCS OOASIS. You will have the chance to get hands-on with all of the farm's residents (except the guineas). You can brush all of our animals, feed some of them treats, potentially take a walk with a goat or two, and learn about how we do our best to Reduce, Reuse, and Repurpose many items previously headed to the dump. A few examples are cribs for hay feeders, feed bags made out of grain bags and old doors to create a ceiling in the barn. You will also learn about what it takes to keep an animal healthy, loved, and well cared for. The barnyard is ADA accessible. We do, however, request that service dogs be left at the barn door for the safety of the animals and people visiting. Most of our animals are rescues and many have triggers that include fear of dogs regardless of how well behaved and/or trained. On an individual basis we may be able to come up with an alternative that would allow a service dog to accompany its person. Thank you for understanding.

Great Spot

Tent

Linda's space was really private. It's hard to tell from the pictures, but there are woods that have spots for tents or hammocks next to the gravel drive that an RV/camper/van can be on. I hammock camped in the pines and it was a great space. You can definitely put a tent or two back there if you wanted to as well. You can hear a little bit of the road that intersects with their road, but it's not bad. Communication with Linda was great, and when I arrived I was shown everything I needed, including the porta potty and water. I used the fire pit and wood was provided as well, wonderful touch. I didn't get a chance to take a tour of the farm, hopefully next time. I chose this spot because of the location. It's less than 10 minutes from Leland. I ventured all around the peninsula, including Northport and the beaches up there. It was a great home base for adventuring. I would definitely stay here again. Thanks again for the hospitality!
