Weekend Trip to Tiny Love Shack Off Grid Glamping

Julie was a fantastic host! She checked in after our first night to see if we had everything we needed. We spent a weekend here as part of a greater road trip cross-country and we had a swell time. The views of the lake are gorgeous and the loft sleeping accommodations were super cozy! After we left we realized that we left some near and dear prized possessions (a special hat and one single ear bud) and Julie was kind enough to reach out and then mail these items to us! We are super thankful and do kindly recommend staying

We loved our time in the Tiny Love Shack! It's definitely tiny, just enough room for the two of us and our big dog. It felt surprisingly private for being so close to neighbors. It was a bit musty in November, but that's to be expecting of glamping!

Weekend Trip to Tiny Love Shack Off Grid Glamping

I really enjoyed my stay at Julie’s B52 “Love Shack.” My dog and I felt right at home. Julie provided everything we could need. The upstairs was so relaxing and peaceful. The outside grill and zero gravity chairs were perfect for enjoying a delicious meal and providing front-row seats to view the stars and moon. The outside shower was an experience and a first for me. I mistakenly thought I had put enough water in there, but ran out with my hair covered in shampoo. Luckily, I was able to rebound pretty quickly and enjoyed an ice-cold shower on an extraordinarily hot day for October. Overall, this place and space offered me exactly what I was looking for, and I look forward to revisiting it soon.

My wife and I loved spending the weekend at the love shack! It was easy to get to with close by shops, but still felt totally off grid and secluded. Julie was a great host, and the site was adorable.

We stayed at the tiny love shack for our yearly camping trip! We are a small family of 3 and it was perfect for us. We felt like we were in another land surrounded by cat-tails and nature. And chickens! 🐓 Julie had everything anyone would need to camp! All of the little details were so sweet and thoughtful. We had a fire for 3 days! We discovered that if you smolder fuzzy cattails it works as an insect repellant. Like insence. I even tried to weave a basket. We brought my dog and she loved sleeping in the cabin. This was our first time trying hip-camp and we will be using this app for all of our future family get aways!

Cute lil cabin feels pretty secluded has a nice lil fire pit. Upstairs loft bed was pretty comfortable ladder 🪜 could be a challenge to some to get up and down but overall not bad. We did take the kayaks out but the lake was pretty low so couldn't go out too far but still fun 😊 We would recommend staying here for the price it's definitely worth it.

Weekend Trip to Tiny Love Shack Off Grid Glamping

The shack is a beautiful little get away for couples, we had a great time and lots of stuff to entertain you for a few days around the area. I wouldn’t really suggest kayaking off the pier though, at least this time of year. Lily pad and muck makes it impossible to get to the beach area, seemed like lack of rain probably played a factor. It’s a beautiful place though and we had a great time.

Had a fantastic stay at the Tiny Love Shack! Julie was very responsive and easy to get ahold of. We ended up taking the kayaks out to the lake and it was so fun! The inside was clean and well taken care of. We slept super well; it was a nice, quiet area. We were in town for a small conference at MSU and it was super close by and easy to get to. Only about a 15 min drive from campus. Will definitely be back again!

There was an upstairs loft but I utilized the futon in the main area. Very homey!
