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.

My wife and I are slowly starting up our own little farm. We have 2 indoor cats, 1 outdoor cat, a dog, chickens and two ducks. We are on 34 acres and have a river that runs through the middle of it. We are 10 minutes from Alma and 20 minutes from Mt Pleasant. Lumberjack park is about 2 minutes away and Stearns preserve is about 5 mins away where you can walk or ride bike on a nice paved trail. We have a small garden that we plant every summer and plan to start a small farm stand this year. We are in a quiet area with lots of wildlife. We have 1 spot near the house with a view of the river that can support electric hook for a smaller RV and can attach a garden hose for water if needed. We do have a “field” that RVs can use but there is no hook up and there ground may not be level. We have many options for rustic tent camping along the river. No public restroom available. We can also provide some fire wood for campfires for a small cost. Along the river fires are allowed but must be contained in a fire ring. If camping by the field fires will be dependent on conditions. We have 3 kayaks and a canoe that can be used with prior consent. There is a park up river where you can put in and then can exit at our house which is about an hour on the river. We are very new to this and just purchased a UTV so we will be able to start making trails and clearing areas. But for now, camping along the river you will have to walk (and carry belongings) through tall grass to the site you desire. Quiet time 11 pm. We are an easy going couple that just want to share this slice of paradise with others! WiFi available

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.

My husband and I rented a site here for our anniversary and we had a great time! The owner was very welcoming and super chill! The showers and restrooms are very clean and smelt good. We will bring our kids here too since there’s an open area with things for kids to do and places for parents to hang out! We came up to ride the trails and there are plenty of spots to start that fun! Thank you, Thomas for being a great host! I’m sure we will be back.

I would ABSOLUTELY camp here again. The (non-electric) lots were level and very private. The bathrooms and showers were clean and well maintained. The only thing I would caution anyone on is that there aren't quiet time hours. However, just remember to pack your earplugs in case there are any unwanted noises!

Nice and clean campgrounds. The bathrooms and showers were very clean and the water was plenty warm. We added on a few bundles of wood for the fire pit and the price was very reasonable and we were given a large stack of firewood. There is a basketball court and sand volleyball. If you want to play bring your own ball. The volley ball sand area is a bit small and a bit rough, so watch your toes if you play. Stayed at site #9 which has some nice tree cover and a spot in the back where we were able to hang up our hammock. The walk to the bathroom from this site was quite short. No complaints at all, would stay again!

We had a wonderful 3-night stay at Tom's campground. We arrived quite late at night and weren't sure how to find our site, but to our surprise, Tom’s wife greeted us and personally guided us there. Both she and Tom are incredibly nice and run a very family-friendly campground. The entire place is well-maintained, with clean bathrooms, a playground for the kids, and everything we needed. We had other plans so didn't get to enjoy their canoe/kayak rental, maybe next time.

Clean and quiet space. We had #9 and it was spacious and very nice. Bathroom/shower very clean. Great place to camp if you are wanting to get away to a less crowded, cramped space. And very popular for kayaking,canoe the river.
