Our horses are beautiful to look at, however, some are rescues and we ask that you respect their space and not feed them (allergies/special diets). Also, they sometimes mistake fingers for carrots! Please do not enter or reach into any enclosures. Electric fences in use!
Staff and owners will be on-site daily to care for the animals.

We’re a large campground and spacious, with about every conceivable configuration of RV site you can imagine. The accommodations are ample, and we’re very strategic in locating the conveniences, close and easy to get to, whether you’re driving your home, pulling it or pitching it. Our RV sites have water, electric and sewer with pull-throughs, back-ins, and buddy back-ins with 30/50-amp electric service options. We have sites for tenting and a rentable cabin for those who don’t want to rough it.
Whatever your camping style, you’ll have easy access to all the good stuff. Our emphasis is on providing all the recreation you could want while you’re at the campgrounds. In fact, plenty of our guests spend their vacations in our heated pools, jamming on the basketball court and hiking around the nearby Michigan beauty.

The camping site was wonderful, and the host was great! We loved the horses around, and little barn kittens to play with. The location was perfect. We brought our boats and were able to cruise around Chrystal Lake, and Lake Michigan. The weather was absolutely beautiful!

This has become my family’s new favorite place to visit of all time. The host is incredible! Not just makes it cozy, but absolutely makes you feel at home. The farm is meticulously maintained, couldnt even find cobwebs in the barn. Horses are super sweet and come ip for lovins. Property is also kept very nicely. No mosquitos at all at the campsite. Host even had a fire set up perfectly in the fire pit when we arrived. Which was incredible because we arrived at midnight and it was cold. Cant thank the host enough, truly made our big trip up north one for the books! We rode our fourwheelers everywhere, made a bunch of campfires with the endless free dead wood throughout the woods. Laid out watching the sky change color a bit and staring at the stars every night in our hammocks. Took my truck through all the trails nearby and almost sunk it in a mudpit that was maybe a half mile off the property line. Best part truly was the host making it so welcoming. After staying at her farm for a couple days we opted in for 2 more nights with zero regrets. After being here for the better of a week we now know we want to move to this area and build a similar homestead. Very much so recommend this spot! We will be back as much as we can afford to be!

Well maintained yard with a wide view of farmland. It features a mowed lane that leads to some woods that works great for a dog walk. The Interlochen State Park is just 15 mins. away. The location offers a good view of the night sky with no yard lights nearby.

An absolutely lovely place! Warm and kind hosts made us feel welcome, and the place itself was very easy to set up in, with well maintained full hook ups. The location was great for our needs, very quiet and relaxing and surprisingly enough, the cell reception was very good too. If we ever come back this way we will make sure to stop here again.

Thank you Leslie! What a lovely welcome from your parents and you! What a perfect spot (with full hook up)😊 to navigate from. We had family in town, so were away to the 4th of July fireworks, parade and then lake Michigan swim and beach time. Quiet and serene location!
