We built our home 31 years ago on 8 acres of hay field. Everything you see on our property was put here by us!! We have had dogs, a couple of horses, cats of course and chickens too. The horses, dogs and chickens are gone but we still have cats...and we have a pond off our deck with about 50 goldfish and a couple dozen frogs!! Our kids are all grown and we are left wondering what is next. For the past 20 years or so we have had at least one or two camp outs a year on our property with just friends. Then we started thinking "why not invite others?" We know how difficult it can be to get camping reservations in the area....then I bumped into a Hipcamp Host who told me about this.... so here we are! We are animal and nature lovers and our gardens are here for you to enjoy. We'd love to give you a tour and tell you all about every plant if you are interested. Or we will ignore you and let you do your own thing in our 'backyard'! We offer rustic boondocks camping or set up nearer to our buildings and we can supply you with power....110, 30 and 50 available for a small extra charge Welcome to Traverse City and welcome to Camp David!! I have a Facebook page with lots of fun and interesting things to do and see as well as great restaurant recommendations for Traverse City and beyond, on my travel page...Towhead Travels....on Facebook. Please look me up! We have a porta potty on site and firewood (mostly oak) is available to purchase when you get here. (all campsites will be provided with a fire ring, a 5 gal bucket of water, and kindling no charge) https://m.facebook.com/100057592452231/We offer RV and tent camping on open rolling countryside. There are 3 campsites that have electricity for an additional fee. We are located close to many outdoor activities. Water is available to be transported. Fire rings are provided. There is a convenience store nearby and a grocery 3 miles away.  Enjoy Traverse City dining and activities all just minutes away from our little bit of paradise! We are a cannabis friendly campground. Fyi...Traverse City now has 16 cannabis dispensaries. Bring with or buy here. Its all good!! We love animals and nature so come see our gardens and our wildlife neighbors! Your pets are our pets so please bring them along...just please clean up after them. This is the way......
