Great hospitality and communication. Julie helped us out with good directions and updates on the river, as we were canoeing in for the night. She even had a fire going for us when we arrived. Had a great time.

The perfect solo spot that had the cutest little trail back to a private site. Loved the camp toilet and wagon, it made everything so easy! Will be back 💕

Elizabeth is very responsive and a great host. The site is super secluded with lots of trees for shade and wide enough to set up multiple tents.

My husband and I really enjoyed camping on John's land. Everything that you need is already there, set up ready to go. The place was very peaceful and quiet. Both of our dogs were able to run around the property and enjoy it just as much as we did. I would definitely plan another stay here.

What an incredible place. So peaceful, so secluded, exactly what we were hoping for. We only stayed one night for this trip, and we all wished we could have stayed longer so we will definitely be planning a longer stay in the future.
The bed was very comfortable, I always worry about that when staying at places away from home. We did have to relocate a few 8-legged friends from inside the yurt when we first arrived, but they didn’t put up too much of a fight.
We got rain during the night, and my new favorite thing is sleeping in a yurt while it’s raining. It was heaven. I love how the yurt is nestled under pines, it’s such a good spot.

The site was private, but near to the house if anything was needed. It was a slightly longer walk than anticipated after a long day, but manageable and there was a wagon to help transport your things

A lovely experience! It was a spot covered by trees and when it rained overnight, barely anything was wet the next morning. The walk from the parking spot to the camping spot felt shorter than it looked on the map and was so green to walk into. Appreciate having firewood available on site!

We had a great time on Elizabeth's land. It was beautiful and secluded. Our pup loved it and we loved it. Not close to major highways, so it's pretty quiet at night. Would recommend for a getaway in the woods.

Weekend Trip to Riverside Retreat at New Richmond
We loved our time at Trestle Bell! It was so nice to arrive to our site and have firewood waiting for us, as well as potable water. We really enjoyed the riverside location near Fennville and it was a short drive to Saugatuck and Douglas.

We had a wonderful time and Jeff was great! We would certainly recommend to anyone who wants a peaceful, private spot to hangout and relax. The shower, kitchen, and outhouse were much appreciated- I really loved how well maintained and clean the outhouse was! We brought our dogs and they enjoyed running around and lounging in the sun too.

Campsite was a bit further than expected, maybe a bit over a quarter mile, but was very personal and quiet. Good amenities and sheltered within the woods.

I ended up getting to the campsite really late and it was pitch dark after doing some extra hiking earlier in the day. The directions given were perfect and a motion detector light at the trailhead was really helpful. I was the only one camping that night in the big clearing. It was a nice set up, especially as someone used to backcountry camping.

This is a very great place if you want a more "roughing it" experience.
The couple who runs it were really great down to earth people. It's awesome that they are willing to share their Beautiful forest with people. It's a quarter mile walk which is not that bad especially if you travel light. I have a heart condition and a pacemaker and we have a 5yr old and had no problems. Returning to your vehicle is mostly uphill so plan your trips. The forest was great and alive at night. I was very surprised that mosquitoes were not horrible. We had family natural care repellent and BBW eucalyptus spearmint lotion and fine. The ONLY thing to watch out for is if you are highly sensitive to poison ivy. There was alot all over the northwest part of the land and around the camp site. We kept our shoes outside the tent and had no issues.
I hope to come back soon. It was a very quiet and peaceful place. So glad they are willing to share there little treasure with others.

The campsite was incredibly private, large, and clean! If you are confused about the toilet situation, there is a little pop up tent with a portable toilet and some sanitary stuff in there. The hosts were super friendly and had some great suggestions for where we should go for the day. They also had some friendly dogs in addition to the horses and donkey. The site is about a 20 min drive away from a really cute touristy town on Lake Michigan for a nice day at the beach. We also went during berry season, and there was a pick you own farm really close by with some local goods to buy as well. First experience with Hipcamp and I had an amazing time at Elizabeth's place!

We had a wonderful time camping here. Julie was a great host. She was very responsive and kind. The campsite was clean and quiet. We had a nice time renting some of her kayaks and a canoe to get the full river experience too. Also, my husband enjoyed fishing the river. We would highly recommend staying here!
