Hidden amongst the expansive agricultural crops that line Harrison Lake, the like-named campground is not only rich in nitrogen; it’s frivolous with outdoor activities. Once you’re officially tuckered-out from canoeing on the one-hundred-and-fifty-acre lake or sore from the shore-hugging hikes, you’ll be able to rest those sore appendages within the shaded confines of your primitive (or electrically-fed) campsite.

McCormick Artisans Woods/River

32mi from Harrison Lake Campground · 3 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging · Jonesville, MI

We bought this property in 2012 and have built several buildings and forged paths throughout the 32 acres. Our road is part of the North Country Trail, a footpath stretching over 4,600 miles from Middlebury in central Vermont to Lake Sakakawea State Park in central North Dakota. While tearing down the existing house, we constructed two bedrooms in the pole barn for a quick living space. Once settled in the pole barn, we a built a small log cabin with already felled timbers from the local woods, except for the box frame which was purchased from the local Amish. Prior to building our permanent log cabin home, this small cabin was our camp site and is now being rented to people that want to relax and enjoy the outdoors. In the middle of the woods, we created a campground to be enjoyed by hikers and on the North side of our property is a tree line between two fields that is a great small camper/tent camping spot.

Southern loop is right on a main road and you have to walk around to the northern loop to get to running water. Bathrooms and showers on the northern loop are decent but not spectacular. The view over the lake from the northern side is really beautiful. Although much busier, I'd recommend staying on the northern loop. If the southern loop were full, campsites are very close together and exposed but on a weeknight there were only people in 2 other sites and honestly being on such a main road and with so few others around, I felt a bit uncomfortable as a woman camping alone. Bugs were really terrible in mid-August.
