4 nights at Northern Michigan Getaway

Dan was a super host. He met me upon arriving and checked on me daily to ensure I had everything I needed. Dan also gave me tips for places to go in the area and provides each camper with a packet of tourist information. The site was great, plenty of room and just as described. Would definitely return.

4 nights at Ricky’s Pine River hunt/camp

Rick's cabin was quaint, clean, comfortable, and was everything I wanted and needed for this long weekend. The land was simply stunning. Lodge pole pines, sandy trails, beautiful mossy marshy areas, and from what I hear, the potential for morels. Didn't find any because of rain, but there's always next time! I brought way too many things, not knowing what to expect and this being my first HipCamp adventure. Beds had fresh, clean linens, pillows, and there were lots of warm blankets. A flashlight, butane burner for cooking, candles for evenings, and plenty of wood for the fire were all there and ready for me. Camp chairs too! I love that previous HipCampers left things for the next person like candles, and notes. In the spirit of things I left a couple citronella candles and some incense myself. Rick himself was just lovely. He was exactly the right amount of friendly and helpful, and "let the girl be a hermit" in the woods. ☺️ He checked in to make sure I had all the wood and kindling I needed, especially on the day it rained. He also made a lunch location suggestion in town. Super helpful guy. Brought my dog, we saw turkey tracks and deer tracks, were awakened by a roudy woodpecker, and heard coyotes howling early in the morning. A pair of loud herons flew overhead half a dozen times. Crows, ravens, hawks. So many birds. Such a great place for wildlife! The wood burning stove was plenty warm enough for 40-50 degree nights. I can't say enough about this gem.

Weekend Trip to Heirloom Acres

We loved camping at Heirloom Acres Hilltop Camp. Everything was as described. Private and peaceful one site only which is exactly what we look for to truly unwind. Close to Cadillac and Mesick.

Weekend Trip to DaltonTraders Base Camp-Grand Cabin

Way way way better than you would think! Close enough to everything and nothing all at the the same site. Host was perfect in every way, had everything ready, cabin warmed up, even with our delayed then delayed again arrival. If you are thinking about taking your camping gear, ask first. Ed probably has everything you need. Just a cooler and food for the weekend. If you've ever closed your eyes and imagined what it would be like to wake up one day after 30 years of living in the woods and finally have that "list" done. This was what is was like sipping coffee on the porch this weekend.

Weekend Trip to Ricky’s Pine River hunt/camp

This place was exactly what we were hoping for! We wanted to get our son out into nature, and this cabin was perfect. Tucked back on the property and surrounded by forest, it offers views of a beaver pond in the distance—peaceful and secluded. Rick was an amazing host and made sure we had everything we needed. His friendly golden retriever, Jackson, even stopped by to play with our dog and son, which was such a fun bonus! If you're looking for a nice, simple getaway in the woods, I’d definitely recommend booking some time at Rick's place. We had a great experience and are already looking forward to our next visit.

Weekend Trip to Hen and Hive Provisions

I received a warm welcome from Pamela. She happily obliged all my questions about the goats! The tent site was comfortable, surrounded by beautiful pine trees and nice wandering walking trails. The outhouse was cute and clean. The eggs were delicious! I will keep this place in mind for another time.

1 night at Ricky’s Pine River hunt/camp

Loved staying at Rick’s cabin and exploring the trails… all was so serene and Rick is an awesome host!

The cabin was very comfortable and cozy. The fireplace was just at the right temperature to keep the entire cabin warm. The overall experience was amazing, would definitely recommend this place. Can’t wait to go back 😍

3 nights at Sherman City Acres

Megan was quick to respond to any questions! We stayed at Whispering Waters campsite over Easter weekend. This campsite can accommodate two travel trailers and there's lots of room. The area down by the river is spectacular! We definitely want to come back again to enjoy the site during warmer weather. This place is a gem!

Weekend Trip to Pine Creek⛺️💫Private Hilltop Camp

Great private campsite! To find the drive auto look out for two white reflective flags! The drive will go uphill most of the way!

Weekend Trip to Ricky’s Pine River hunt/camp

Beautiful property and cabin. Rick was a great host. Lots of additional recreation opportunities on public land just down the road. The family had a blast and we will be booking again in the future

2 nights at Sherman City Acres

The site was perfect! Lots of room for hanging out and the river is only a short walk away. We weren’t planning on a snow storm as we were arriving at the site but the host was super helpful and brought us some dry firewood so we could get our fire started and warm up. If you are looking for a nice quiet campsite with lots of room and plenty of wilderness, this is a great spot. The host was also super responsive to any questions I had prior to our trip. We look forward to checking out some of their other sites this summer.

Weekend Trip to Hen and Hive Provisions

Loved my experience! Was just looking to spend a night under the stars and get out of Grand Rapids for a night and this was the perfect spot for it. Had the campground to myself, since it was still March. All was quiet and peaceful. Wish I could’ve had time to meet the animals! I do plan to come back sometime to do so. Got some farm fresh eggs and left feeling rejuvenated. Thanks so much!!

The 40 Acre Wood

5 sites · Lodging40 acres · Shelby, MI

www.facebook.com/the40acrewood Before our forest was "owned," it belonged to the Odawa people. Once white settlers arrived and governments were established, land deeds were written. We traced those deeds back through the Oceana County Register of Deeds and found that larger tracts of land were owned by people from Chicago and California, which were later divided into smaller parcels. Interestingly, one owner lost the property after failing to pay back taxes of $3.50, shortly after World War II. It is likely that he never returned. In the mid-1900s, Ed Dewey was the owner. Today, we have a cabin on the east side of the 40 acres that was built by Ed, entirely constructed with oak. He had three sawmills there, each powered by the engines of old Studebakers. He cut and milled enormous oak trees, using the wood to construct crates for transporting cherries. Today, you can still see old oak crates on various farms, but they are slowly being replaced by plastic. Ed never finished the little cabin, and the story goes that he died there. The next owners were a couple from Inkster, near Detroit. Despite Ed leaving an acre of "yard art" all over, the place was used as a vacation home after a 50-foot long mobile home was placed near the cabin. As they aged, they sold off their property to us. First, we acquired the 20 acres where the Cozy Camper Cabin resides, then the 7 acres near Weaver Road and 44th, and finally, the remaining 13 acres with the cabin. We began purchasing the property in parcels in 1992 for $500 an acre and owned it all by 1998. From 1998 to 2008, we removed the mobile home, cleaned up all the yard art, refurbished the cabin, added a garage, and built a new shed nearby. The Hipcamp shed was originally built in 1999 and has been used for storage until it was converted into a unique little place in the woods in 2021. Over the years, our Forester has carefully managed the property. We have logged three times. The first round was to remove 75 huge oak trees. The second round involved culling mature poplar trees. The last time, we took out 276 mature oaks and beeches. A Woodsman spent a year cutting down the tops of the trees. Clearing these old growth trees revitalized the forest, as planned. Today, there are over two miles of trails running throughout the property. Some were logging roads, while others were carved out over time. The land is flat to the north but hilly to the south, as these are forested sand dunes. There are approximately a million trees on the property, densely forested with many large "mother trees" such as oaks, beeches, maples, and pines. The poplar trees are growing rapidly, as they do. Wild cherry, sassafras, beeches, oaks, and maples are also growing quickly and thickly. To the south, there are fenced-in asparagus fields and cherry orchards. To the north, on the other side of Weaver Road, is the privately owned Silver Lake Airport, which remains quiet most of the time. On the east side of our 40 acres, you'll find our cabin and buildings, and we kindly ask you to avoid wandering onto that side of the property. Signs will alert you when you get close. To the west, there is a 20-acre section occasionally occupied by some "Dunners." The area is famous for Silver Lake State Park and the sand dunes, located about 2.5 miles northwest of us. Our neighbors in that area have dune buggies, and they sometimes drive around their property, creating more noise than we prefer. It's possible that you may encounter this during your visit, so please be aware. Deer are abundant in the area, and in 2021, we spotted a porcupine for the first time, although we have occasionally seen evidence of their presence through bark-stripped maples. Raccoons come and go, while turkeys are frequent visitors at times. You can hear coyotes yipping away at night, and depending on the time of year and migratory season, you'll see lots and lots of birds. We're pleased to report that there is no poison ivy on the property! It is a beautiful place in the woods, not far from many entertaining activities suitable for both the young and old. Come and visit, but please be respectful of the land and our privacy while enjoying yours. Love Mother Earth while you are here and nourish your soul.

Lynx Run Wilderness Retreat

8 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents100 acres · Stanwood, MI

My property (Lynx Run) has an amazing geological and historical background. During the last ice age, glacial waters carved out the ravine in which the Betts Creek flows. Sometimes, the creek drops over 60 feet below the surrounding terrain as it meanders back and forth in oxbows as it flows toward the Muskegon River. It was once the hunting, foraging and camping grounds of the Potawatami Indians. In the late 1800's it was at the center of the Michigan Timber Industry. Running along the edge of my property is the old railroad bed where timber was once hauled away. Only two miles from my home, the logs were sent down the side of the hill and into the Muskegon River on log chutes and then floated to where the Muskegon empties into Lake Michigan. Piles of field stones indicate that after the timber industry moved on, farmers moved in and attempted to tame the land. But, fortunately for me, the land was abandoned by the farmers and has returned to a much more natural and pristine state. My land is now a part of the Manistee National Forest and I am surrounded by thousands of acres of beautiful land (both public and private). I am the only person who lives back here in this part of the forest, so seclusion and privacy are wonderful and the wildlife and beauty is abundant.

Harvest Village - Farmstay

6 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents12 acres · Le Roy, MI

Your Hosts - Dan and Arlene Cool: “We served as missionaries in South America for over 20 years. Our first assignment was in Santa Cruz, Bolivia, primarily at a school for missionary children, teaching Bible classes (Dan) and helping to start up and run a hot lunch program (Arlene). After this we ministered in Paraguay for 10 years. Our final years of missionary service were in Chile where we founded a missionary training school to train Chilean missionaries. Latin American students that we helped train are now serving around the world bringing hope and the Gospel to needy people. Harvest Village helps to support the ministries of our former students. We are excited to enter this new stage of our lives and to share our family’s centennial farm with people interested in healthier living and farm vacationing.”Your stay at Harvest Village helps bring hope to the hopeless; We set aside $1 /per guest, per night, to help our former students who are serving as missionaries in some of the neediest places around the world.

Camping near Baldwin guide

Overview

If you thought the only lakeshores worth noting were those of the Great Lakes, think again. As the county seat of Michigan’s landlocked Lake County, Baldwin more than makes up for its distance from Lake Michigan (although the lakeshore itself is only a 40-minute drive away). Nestled in the heart of the Manistee National Forest, the small town retreat has easy access to both the Baldwin River and the Pere Marquette River, and is surrounded by more than 100 inland lakes. Unsurprisingly, there are plenty of ways to get on the water, whether canoeing and kayaking along the rivers, fishing for trout and steelhead, or checking into one of the region’s many lakeside campgrounds, national forest campsites, and riverfront cabins. Lovers of quirky attractions also won’t want to miss Baldwin’s two most unique sights—the Shrine of the Pines cabin gallery and the world’s largest trout sculpture!
