Escape to our secluded 10-acre woodland retreat, where privacy meets natural beauty just minutes south of Traverse City. Nestled against hundreds of acres of pristine state land, our property offers a perfect blend of wilderness and comfort with multiple accommodation options.
We have eight thoughtfully placed RV sites and a cozy vintage mobile home. Our property's intimate trail system weaves through untouched backwoods, connecting to extensive state land hiking paths and offering endless opportunities for exploration and wildlife viewing. (Note: trails can be muddy at certain times of the year.)
Here, you'll find yourself immersed in the peaceful rhythm of nature. Watch deer graze in the morning mist, listen to birdsong from your private space, and end your days stargazing under our light-pollution-free sky. The dense woods ensure complete privacy from neighbors, creating a true sanctuary in nature. The full 10 acres serve as a common area shared by the eight sites and the vintage mobile home located near the entrance of the property.
Despite feeling wonderfully remote, we're conveniently located just a short drive from Traverse City’s attractions, wineries, beaches, and renowned restaurants. Enjoy the best of both worlds—total seclusion with easy access to Northern Michigan’s most beloved destinations.
Perfect for:
• Nature enthusiasts seeking solitude
• Families wanting a safe, expansive outdoor space
• Couples looking for a romantic woodland getaway

We loved the cozy adorable camper and the huge pavilion. Bring your camping cooking gear and you never have to leave! The trails on their property are gorgeous and mossy. Our dog loved them! Having hot water, a real bed and electricity made it a camping trip we could both enjoy for our anniversary. Thank you!!
