Nestled in Manistee National Forest is a family farm. Trailheads lead to hundreds of miles of public two-track, and the woods roll between oak/maple/beech and aspen/birch. On the farm is a 20 acre lake with a floating island, tent sites, and healthy ecosystems with plenty of wildlife.Our farm pastures pigs, cattle, sheep and poultry, investing in our dirt and our neighbors. We are provision family farms because we provide for our animals even as we are provided for.

Nice spot with a concrete pad not too far from 31. A bit of road noise, but it quieted down at night. I was there for a quick stay, so, unfortunately, I didn't get a chance to enjoy the trails.

The camp spot on Luke's farm was lovely. While we requested the kayaks for their pond, we did not end up using them. The space was very private. We had a little trouble getting to the space as the direction listed in the booking did not land you immediately into the space, but more like adjacent. We arrived late and it was dark out so we had a tough time knowing where to turn, there was very little signage to indicate where exactly to go, and we did not have the best cell service. We made it to their farm and we were given a map.
Overall, i would stay there again and recommend to anyone looking for a quiet and peaceful time out in nature. The views of the autumn foliage were abundant. Thank you!

We loved this camp. We travel with our 3 dogs, and this is the perfect place for them to have their space to romp around. Firewood was at the campsite when we got there, a beautiful lake, and seclusion. We came to area to mountain bike the dragon trail, this camp is a great home base for bikers.

Had a long weekend and some new gear to try out, so we decided to look to the north for a campsite. Everything was booked, not to mention packed full of people. Then my brother told me about Hipcamp, and everything changed.. We found Clinton's Ranch site and it checked all the boxes: close to where my parents were staying, dog friendly, and isolated (one campsite only). Clinton was super cool and easy to deal with. He pretty much told us we could do whatever we wanted there and walked me back to check out the site, a nice mowed area tucked back in the woods. We spent 2 nights in perfect weather, not far from modern conveniences, which is good because there are no toilets on site (not even an issue at the price per night). Just bring a bucket toilet or something similar and pack in all of your water and you are set. It was paradise for 2 days. I would DEFinitely recommend this site and I will definitely be back someday.

We absolutely loved camping at Back Road Ranch! There was so much space for the kids to play and enjoy nature and it was private so we didn’t have to worry about bothering neighboring campers! The amenities were so nice to have and were so essential for our large group. The host is very responsive and helpful, We look forward to coming back and camping here again next year and definitely recommend camping here! Thanks again Scott!!

The campsites were great, lots of space for the campers as well as additional vehicles or tents. The campsites had shade most of the day which was nice during the hot days. I think it’s good to know that the entrance is off a dirt road but it was easy to find and well marked.
We would stay here again!

Not your typical campground, you’re just staying on a little corner of their property/farm, but it’s super cute and peaceful! The host was very friendly and accommodating. Very quiet and isolated. Would recommend, especially if you don’t mind a bumpy road and hanging out with the farm animals.

Great campsite near silver lake with great amenities! Little noisy surroundings at times with the ATVs/dirt bikes riding the trails but I think that is to be expected with the area. Loved having the place to ourselves. Would highly recommend for a large group or multiple families.

Nice private piece of property. It’s clear a lot of thought was put into the layout. Most sites had shade by mid-afternoon, but still open enough for great star gazing at night. Scott was extremely responsive with questions before and during the trip.
