Baroda, MI · 3 sites · Tents, RVs
This is a 3rd generation "Family Farm" of a different sort I suppose. Seems there's a bit of everything here, and arguably not enough of anything. At least for conventional farming. So we've learned to do things a bit differently.Our main crop is wine and juice grapes since our topography, climate, and soil type makes it a premier location for that. But with 30+ acres of forested hillsides, low ground, and natural areas we've evolved into a mixed farm and forest enterprise. Our goal is to utilize the productivity of all our property while still retaining the basic character and usefulness of the wild areas. Letting each thing be what it wants to be and does best on it's own. Flow, not force.So our year starts early with tapping maple trees and making maple syrup. Plus there's grape trimming about this time as well. When the forest floor starts to green up a bit later, we start digging Ramps, or Wild Leeks in the woods. Most of these will go to the more trendy Chicago restaurants, but we also have some local sales. Next comes inoculating winter-cut logs with Shiitake spawn for next years mushroom production. This year we also conducted a few hands-on workshop seminars on mushroom growing as well. Then it's on to our raised bed herb & veggie gardens. (Fresh herbs are just so much fun to cook with!) We grow enough for our own yearly use, as well as some for direct sales. Summer keeps us busy tending all the different crops here and trying to keep up. But there's that steady progression of fresh veggies to eat. Yum !!! Fall brings our annual Grape U-Pick in September and October. And we try to time related crops like mums, pumpkins, and gourds for this same time frame. Makes the place a bit more interesting. Late fall is when we bring in firewood to heat the house and workshop. Stacks of wood everywhere. Hopefully before the 1st snow. In winter it's time to fire up the woodworking shop and be a bit creative. Build furniture, equipment maintenance, who knows what next years projects will include. I like to keep everybody guessing.So, that's what goes on here. You're welcome to check it out, lend a hand, relax back at camp, walk the vineyards and/or forest, or just breathe and relax. That's up to you. But I would recommend visiting a few of the fine local wineries. Seems there's a festival going on at one or another of them just about every weekend. Good music, good wine, good times. And there's the Lake Michigan beaches a few miles down the road.Yeah, this is a pretty casual place here, love meeting new people, very open to civil discussions of all sorts.However, rude, ill mannered people will probably enjoy staying elsewhere. Just say'n.

2Chicks And A Farm is a small working farm on 20 acres, owned and run by Julie & Theresa Graham. We are 13 minutes from South Haven and Lake Michigan, 30 minutes from the city of Kalamazoo and just under an hour from Grand Rapids.
Those of you who have visited in the past will notice that we significantly downsized this year. Due to Township and State regulations, we are now limited to offering only four campsites unless we get licensed, which at this time is cost prohibitive. So, we have selected the four most highly rated sites and upgraded them, to truly make your experience here special.
About half of the 20 acres is wooded, with walking trails around the property, to include our fish stocked pond and a little tributary of the Black River.
All sites have a fire ring, or metal fire pit, and picnic table.
We have an outdoor propane shower that provides both hot and cold water.
A free refreshment bar is available 24/7. Feeling a little peckish before breakfast, or after dinner? Help yourself to a snack and a hot or cold drink.
You are welcome to collect eggs for breakfast and fresh produce from our gardens (for a fee).
We are a working farm and registered as two Non-Profits. One an animal rescue, primarily working with cats. At any given day we have 20-30 cats roaming around the farm. All are under the care of our vet, vaccinated, spayed or neutered and treated for fleas and ticks. All important because they will want to interact with you. Some will want to sleep with you.
Our 100 plus flock of poultry, comprised of chickens, ducks, geese and turkeys, free range during the day, so leave the Prada's at home.
If you are staying at Sam's Place, your closest neighbors will Penelope and Petunia, our two female sister pigs. The prevailing winds are down from your site, but you may hear them squabble. Our herd of Nigerian Dwarf goats will love your attention and treats we can provide. Arriving in March is Jack, a miniature donkey...we are very excited!
Please try to check-in by 8pm. Exceptions can be made. There are locally mandated quiet hours (10-7 Sun through Thur, and 11-7 Fri and Sat). Hanging out by a fire and chatting is fine.

We went tent camping here and it was really nice! We were only here for one night so we weren’t able to explore. However, it was nice that there seemed to be various things to do such as volleyball, horseshoe, kitchenette etc. The only thing that threw us off was the slight trek to the camp spot because it is slightly uphill. However, it was helpful that there was a wagon to pull stuff up!

We had good weather but there's enough covered areas to compensate if the weather doesn't cooperate. A covered kitchen, dining area and canopy next to the fire pit.

We had an excellent stay at Camp. Every claim about each amenity was just as described - or better. To have access to a hot shower, a working, well- equipped kitchen, a cozy community campfire was spectacular. But our tent site took first price - tucked in the quiet pines - incredibly tranquil and fresh air-filled, we slept great. Our fellow campers were very neighborly; everyone friendly and helpful. Overall, camp Moonshadow offered a warm, welcoming, and rejuvenating but relaxed vibe. Thanks!!

Robb and Jeanne's camp site was by far the best camp site I have visited. If you want a clean quiet camping experience that includes hot showers, outdoor kitchen, private sites with no cars riding by your site then this is the place for you. It is at a perfect location within a few miles from Sleeping Bear Dune National Park. Robb and Jeanne was very accommodating and I would highly recommend this camp site.

The land was absolutely gorgeous, we were devastated we couldn’t stay because a medical emergency came up that was unexpected. If we’re ever back up for the sand dunes I would love to stay and fully experience the beautiful sites that were available!

We had such a lovely time at the farm. Betty was immediately there to help us and show us around. Our spot was perfect - the lush green grass was an added bonus! This property has an awesome outdoor shower and a very clean outdoor bathroom. We had enough room to spread out and put our badminton net up. We hope to get back here next time we are in Michigan!
This property is close to a grocery store, mini golf + delicious ice cream, Lake Michigan, and Crystal Lake is a MUST! We can’t say enough good things about Betty’s hospitality and her property. ♥️

Monte and Lisa are fabulous hosts and warm people. They meet us when we arrived and made sure we had everything we needed. They set aside time in the morning for us to meet their horses and baby goats. We loved this stay and would recommend. We will be back!

Great little get away in the middle of the GR hustle. We hammocked in the trees overnight. Pretty quiet; a few helicopters and motor boats in the day. I would (and may!) escape here again!

This was our second stay at Camp Moonshadow, but my first time using the outdoor shower. It was a dream!
We love camping here- from the beautiful tall trees to the lovely shared kitchen with twinkle lights- and especially the outdoor shower! Who doesn't want to look up and see the stars while washing off a day at the dunes? Thanks for providing such a wonderful space!

Where to go
Upper Peninsula
The Upper Peninsula is Michigan’s wild toupée, with swathes of old-growth forests, sandy beaches, and inland lakes stretching along the southern shore of Lake Superior. This is the spot to escape the crowds, whether pitching your tent by the sand dunes in the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, parking your RV by a waterfall in Tahquamenon Falls State Park, or yurt camping in the Porcupine Mountains. For the ultimate camping experience, the Hiawatha National Forest has some 60 campsites to choose from.
Northern Lower Peninsula
Bordered by Lake Michigan to the West and Lake Huron to the east, the northern Lower Peninsula has the highest concentration of Michigan state parks. Miles of mountain biking, horseback riding, and hiking trails await in the Huron National Forest, where you can choose from modern campgrounds or backcountry camping. Along the coast, Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore is a must-see, Wilderness State Park is a dark sky reserve, and Ludington State Park Beach is a family favorite.
Southwest Michigan
Grand Rapids is the gateway to Michigan’s southwest, where the shore of Lake Michigan provides plenty of options for a summer camping trip. Lakefront cities such as South Haven, Benton Harbor, and Holland have sandy beaches, historic lighthouses, and seafront campgrounds. Forget tent camping in the wilderness—RV sites come equipped with full hookups, playgrounds, and watercraft rentals.
Southeast Michigan
Michigan's "Thumb" juts out along the west shore of Lake Huron, where Sleeper State Park and Port Crescent State Park are the big draws for campers. Below this, the west coast is ideal for a road trip, peppered with shipwreck dive sites, secluded beaches, and golf courses. South of Detroit and Lake St. Clair, Sterling State Park is the only state park on the shore of Lake Erie, with a mix of RV and tent sites by the beach.
