Weekend Trip to Camp Bear Paw

Kevin and Lori are simply the BEST! Bear paw was everything we needed our vacation to be and more! Their attention to details and amenities they provide for their guests can’t be beat!

Weekend Trip to "Elysium Heritage Farm"

Probably one if not the best camping experience we’ve had in a long long time. Kim is super friendly and helpful. The property is HUGE and beautiful, with loads to explore and look at. The spots they have are secluded and peaceful, you even get your own bathroom!! 10 out of 10 highly recommend giving this place a go!

Weekend Trip to Footsteps From Frankenmuth

Great place and great host Rob and his wife Chris were great.would give 10 out of 10. My kids and wife both enjoyed our 3 nights there.

Weekend Trip to "Elysium Heritage Farm"

We loved camping on Kim’s land! It was quiet and peaceful. We got a chance to feed one of the baby goats and it followed us all around the property which was so much fun! The site has a really nice area for a fire and a covered picnic table. The whole area is on wood chips so you don’t get quite as dirty which was really nice. We took some short walks on the property, did a little fishing, took the kayaks out, etc… Definitely recommend!!!

Weekend Trip to Footsteps From Frankenmuth

We had a great stay! We took our camper out for the first time and Rob was very helpful getting us set up. He quickly responded to any questions or requests we had. We would definitely come back! Thanks Rob!

5 nights at Footsteps From Frankenmuth

We had a wonderful time at Footsteps to Frankenmuth. Robert went out of his way to make sure we were comfortable. Great host!

1 night at "Elysium Heritage Farm"

Great, quite, well kept campsite with all the basics provided!

1 night at Tawas Pointe In The Woods

Great spot close to the lake with nice trails and great company. Carol was great to talk to, and helpful with recomendations.

Weekend Trip to Boondock Ridge

Beautiful spot with amazing views. Will definitely come back when it’s a touch warmer to enjoy the water!!

Weekend Trip to River Daze

Our RV site was perfect, no issues at all with the electric or water hookups. Kevin and Christina were such kind and welcoming hosts. Kevin really made our last day special with the open-air movie night! He’s truly a great host. The place had everything we hoped for and more: a river, a fishing spot, fire pits, beautiful nature, and great hospitality. We had a wonderful time and would definitely come back!

Weekend Trip to River Daze

My wife and I decided to get a place to stay last minute and then my brother and his family decided to come they were very eager to accommodate all our needs for the weekend it's close to town for basic needs it was a fantastic weekend and we will definitely be back

Weekend Trip to "Elysium Heritage Farm"

Everything about this hipcamp was so lovely. The site is meticulously maintained, including the nicest outhouse I have ever experienced. The land was beautifully stewarded and the wetlands were so gorgeous. Great birdwatching from all of the trails or the site itself! Definitely can’t recommend enough, probably our favorite hipcamp so far. Icing on the top: I got to hold a baby goat!

Weekend Trip to Ruffin It

Very nice spot for car camping, right in the edge of the woods, easy to find and close to gad station if extra supplies are needed.

Weekend Trip to River Daze

The camping site was amazing, very clean, well maintained, my kids had a blast, the owner was very nice and kind, he lent us a couple important things we had forgotten, we hope to return soon.

Weekend Trip to "Elysium Heritage Farm"

We had a wonderful time at Elysian. After a long, holiday traffic-filled drive, we were warmly greeted by Kim—and by a blazing campfire already waiting for us! Farm Camp is perfect. We’re used to State Park camping, so our site felt downright luxurious: a charming outdoor kitchen with wash water provided, a clean bathroom with a composting toilet, a gorgeous dining area, and a lovely fire pit with a cook grate, plenty of dry firewood, and a clear view of the stars. Every night felt magical, and we were blessed with picture-perfect, clear weather. Garfield the cat snuggled with us by the fire each evening. By day, we were serenaded with lush birdsong and even caught glimpses of the elusive green heron—a dream for any bird-lover. One morning, after a quick trip into town for fresh cheese and sausages, we cooked up a delicious breakfast with a couple of eggs from the chicken coop. Kim is a gifted host. Her hospitality struck the perfect balance between presence and privacy: whenever we had a question or needed fresh water, she (and her delightful entourage of dogs, hens, goats, and geese) seemed to appear as if by magic. There’s so much more we could say, but really, all you need to know is this: book your stay and prepare for a truly gracious experience. We’ll be back!

Weekend Trip to Footsteps From Frankenmuth

Rob went out of his way to make sure I had everything I needed. Great spot!

Weekend Trip to Footsteps From Frankenmuth

Exceptional host! Robert is terrific with communication. He wants to ensure that everyone has a pleasant experience while staying on his property. The space and accommodations were just perfect for our needs. Would return for sure.

Weekend Trip to Boondock Ridge

Great spot! There is road noise but the tree lines make it feel private and the view is as pictured. Bathroom facility super tidy and well stocked. Wood delivery was speedy and our dogs loved having the space to themselves. We would highly recommend this camp!

Weekend Trip to Camp Bear Paw

We were invited to join a large party for a family fun camping weekend at bear paw. I was blown away with how beautiful it was here! There is SO much to do! The hosts were absolutely amazing and truly go above and beyond to make sure everyone is comfy and have everything. I would highly recommend camping here. Can't wait to come back!

Weekend Trip to Camp Bear Paw

We had an amazing time at Bearpaw. I have been recommending it to all my friends, the kids had so much to do and the adults could just relax while the kids were having fun. We cannot wait to go back.

Blue Heron Homestead

2 sites · Lodging1 acre · Au Gres, MI

Spend an enchanting evening on the shores of the Saginaw Bay. We are located in the North Bay- the northern end of the Saginaw Bay in a secluded coastal marsh. Enjoy some of the best views of stars in the Lower Peninsula, or roast marshmallows around a bonfire while the sound of frogs singing lulls you to sleep. Wake up to the sounds of blue herons and snowy egrets coasting over the bay as the sun rises in the morning and enjoy the biodiversity of plants and birds that call this part of Lake Huron home. Watch eagles and kingfishers fish as you kayak the marsh or just lounge in hammocks and enjoy the tranquility of this region. Activities: Kayaking- bring your own kayak or use one of ours. The bay is very shallow here and an ideal spot for a leisurely paddle. Take a tour by kayak of the maze of marsh, or kayak out to the tip of Point Au Gres. Fishing-Perch, Walleye , catfish, bluegill, sunfish, pike and bass are common in the North Bay. Need fishing gear or a license? Stop to Norm's Sporting Goods at the traffic light in Au Gres for a local experience. Birdwatching- This spot is truly a birdwatcher's paradise. In the summer we see abundant herons, egrets, kingfishers, swans, grebes, and a myriad of ducks on a daily basis. During migration seasons the bird action is endless. Swimming- although the marshy coastline here is not ideal for swimming you can easily kayak out to a sandbar or jump in, or just down the road is a public county park with a sandy beach. Visit the Northeast Region! Au Gres has few amenities or restaurants, but 20 minutes north Tawas has ample public beaches, dozens of bars and restaurants, a Walmart and other provisions you may want. The Huron National forest outiside of Tawas also has many great hiking trails, ORV trails and more.

The Magic Forest

5 sites · RVs, Tents25 acres · Lupton, MI

The Magic Forest is a beautiful 25 acre property that is a holistic healing center centered around personal and spiritual growth. We tend to our land with respect and care and ask that you do too. We trust you will feel right at home in the peace of our woods. The Magic Forest is located right across the street from the 4400 acre Rifle River State Recreation area. You can access the park across the street through the canoe port right on the Rifle River, with easy access to fishing, canoeing/kayaking, and trails. Kayak and canoe rental companies are nearby, as well as many lakes in the area with excellent fishing. We have tent sites available, pull-in RV or camper sites, and very soon will have several tiny homes ready for lodging. Special accommodations can be made for those wanting to kayak or canoe, utilize the wood-fired cedar barrel sauna, or have a campfire. Please contact directly for details. You can expect to hear the bird song throughout the day, and many other woodland critters as we are surrounded by state land, and are located on a federally protected watershed. It's about as clean as it gets! The area is traversed enough where we do not experience a population of bears or other predators one may be wary of in the woods. Whether you are a hiker, birder, forager, hunter, fisherman, dirt biking, or seeking a serene place to rejuvenate yourself-you have found a location that offers activities for every season. We do host events on the land such as yoga, sound meditations, retreats, and more. If you happen to stay while an event is occurring, there is a possibility you may be able to join during your stay. Contact directly for details. Rose City is 10 minutes down the road with access to all general food amenities you may need, as well as restaurants. West Branch is about 25 minutes away with the big box stores as well. Just down the road is Kenyon's Lakeside Resort, a historic Michigan Landmark and excellent restaurant with good food, music, and more. Another excellent must-visit just down the road is Lovewell's corner store, one of the best camp stores (and more) around!! We would love to host you at the Magic Forest and provide a place for you to relax, feel safe, and be at home.

Although we don't allow motorized ATVs, you are welcome to bring a golf cart. Most of the trails are improved enough to allow you access. Absolutely NO hunting allowed on the property. The property is located just (5) miles off I-75 so it's also a convenient mid-trip destination for those on a longer distance excursion. In case you plan on fishing the local hotspots on Lake Huron (15 minutes away) and are trailering a boat, there is plenty of area to park your rig during your stay. It's only a ten-minute drive to Pinconning, where you can experience Michigan's "Cheese Town" and all it has to offer. There's a grocery store, numerous cheese shops, and a variety of party stores and restaurants. For the outdoor enthusiasts, don't miss out on going to the ever-famous "Northwoods Wholesale Outlet". Also nearby is the "Saganing Eagles Landing Casino" in Standish. We have resided here for over 30 years and can assist you in many ways to get the most out of your visit. By the way, the definition of the word "Elysium" is "Place of perfect bliss" and yes, we labeled it that long before the movie with Matt Damon was created.

Lake Huron Wooded Retreat 🚗🏕️🏖️

1 site · RV, Tent1 acre · Au Gres, MI

~ Newly Renovated June 2025 ~ Looking for a laid-back, budget-friendly spot to enjoy the beach and unwind by a campfire? Our one-acre campsite near Au Gres, Michigan, is a great fit for small groups or couples who want easy access to Lake Huron, nearby towns, and a safe, convenient place to camp for the night. The front of the property offers a grassy, open area with enough space to park an SUV or small campervan and set up a few tents. Pop-up campers can fit, but space is tight and not ideal. The lot becomes fully wooded toward the back, with a short walking path winding through the trees. There are 3 designated spots where you could pitch a tent, as well as 2 fire rings. The property appears heavily secluded during the summer months, and has very minimal visibility from neighbors. The neighbors are friendly, and the road the property sits on sees occasional vehicle traffic throughout the day. A 4-minute walk down the street brings you to an uncrowded public access point to Lake Huron, a true hidden gem with soft sand and spectacular views. It’s the perfect daytime escape for swimming, sunbathing, or simply relaxing by the water. Please note, it's about a 5-minute walk from the campsite, and you will need to cross US-23 (which is safe). You can return to the site in the evening for a cozy bonfire under the stars. And if you’re up for a little exploring, both Tawas City and Au Gres are only ~5-minutes away and filled with charming shops, local eats, and small-town character. This campsite is best suited for small groups seeking an affordable and accessible basecamp, not for those looking for a deep-woods, off-grid experience. Whether planning a quick weekend getaway or a beach day followed by a night under the stars, this retreat offers the perfect blend of nature, convenience, and value.

1 site · Lodging1 acre · Mio, MI

A rustic, permalog style cabin that is suited to accommodate up to nine. This is a cabin to help disconnect from the hustle and bustle of our chaotic lives. There is limited cell signal, no internet and no local or cable channels. The cabin is pet friendly, as I believe our pets are an extension of our families and should get to vacation with everyone rather than boarded (dogs only are allowed). Primary source of heat is a propane wall furnace. There is an electric fireplace in the living room. In the summer there is a window AC unit at the cabin and a fan for the loft (it does get hot up there). The cabin is very close (1/4 mile) to the AuSable River where you can easily launch boats, canoes and more. The ORV trail head is just a 1/4 mile down the road. This is also the perfect cabin for hunting, fishing, hiking and trail riding. Be sure to keep an eye out for an eagle or two. Also had deer tracks in the yard.

With a population of approximately 106,000 residents, it ranks as the 20th most populous county in the state, offering a vibrant community atmosphere. The governance of Bay County is structured around elected officials, including the Bay County Executive and a seven-member Board of Commissioners. Established under Public Act 139 of 1973, this framework allows for an elected County Executive to serve as the chief administrator, overseeing various departments while respecting the autonomy of other elected officials. This system ensures effective management and coordination across county services. In Michigan, local government responsibilities such as police and fire services, building and zoning regulations, tax assessment, and street maintenance are primarily managed by individual cities and townships. This decentralized approach allows for tailored governance that meets the specific needs of each community, enhancing the quality of life for Bay County residents.
