2 nights at Secluded Hidden Gem in Leelanau CO

It was a great little spot, quiet, clean, and, near plenty of stuff to do!

Weekend Trip to Hidden Meadow

We enjoyed tent camping in early spring. Beautiful property with pretty views and lots of fun stuff to do (thanks to Phil's yard games). Beautiful area of northern Michigan.

Weekend Trip to Hidden Meadow

This spot was a wonderful location for a great price. There was lots of wood and kindling provided to stay warm by the fire, we never got bored because Phil has plenty of yard games to play while at camp. Petoskey was less than 30 minutes away and we even found a wonderful nature preserve nearby called the Agnes S. Andreae Nature Preserve that I would highly recommend. Phil was quick with any questions and was often seen on site making improvements to the campgrounds. We truly had everything we needed and would happily stay again!

Weekend Trip to Hidden Meadow

Easy to find. Wood, kindling and a lighter all present near a nice picnic table.

2 nights at Private Rustic Prairie

Beautiful campsite! The outhouse is very nice, and it was awesome to have the solar power to charge our phones. The night sky view was incredible!

14 ft travel trailer

4 nights at Hidden Meadow

Phil’s Hidden Meadow is an absolute gem. A centralized location, just off I-75 and about 10 miles from Petoskey makes it ideal for those exploring Northern Michigan. Rustic site #4 is tucked away on a nice level parcel. Perfect layout for solar power. Each site is complete with fire ring, firewood and kindling, trash can, patio table with umbrella. Modern sites have electricity. There is a shower stall, water spigot, toilet and wash basin in the communal area. Toilet #2 is near the rustic site 4. Stargazers will love this camp spot as there is a designated clearing for stargazing. From big rigs to small overlanding rigs to tent set-ups, Phil can accommodate you. I don’t think a day goes by that Phil isn’t working to improve upon his HipCamp. It’s a great stay, off the beaten path. Check out his yard games, too!

Weekend Trip to Hidden Meadow

Plenty of room to spread out, and great view of the stars.

Weekend Trip to Just Show Up Camping

Lovely spot conveniently located near the Mackinac Bridge. Andrew was great at communicating with me and was a safe/secluded spot for a solo female traveler. Will return!

Weekend Trip to Private Rustic Prairie

Nice little quiet spot to spend a day or two at, Jake is a fantastic guy and keeps the place well kept together. Cell service is a little spotty, but if you have starlink, Etc you’ll be set!

2 nights at Elm Valley

Such a wonderful place. The host was so joyful and helpful as this was our first RV adventure. We hiked the mini trails and had such a peaceful time. So close to so many cool spots! Hop Lot was our favorite.

1 night at Just Show Up Camping

Amazing spot!!! It was little cold but we were prepared for it. Will absolutely have to make it back in the summer.

Weekend Trip to Grateful Acres

This was a great spot, easy to find and a quiet location that was perfect for the night!

Weekend Trip to Grateful Acres

Great camp site for our needs! We winter car camped here for a night given the proximity to Nub’s and Boyne highlands to hit the slopes. 5 minute drive, clean and convenient bathroom/outhouse and close proximity to Petosky and Harbor Springs if you need anything. Would recommend for your basic campsite needs for a reasonable price and proximity to the areas mentioned above!

Weekend Trip to Million $ Sunset Camp

Great spot! Perfect site and an easy walk to the beach.

Weekend Trip to Million $ Sunset Camp

This campsite is a hidden gem! Beautiful view of the lake, large, private sites, and water available.

400 acres of private forest-Tent-RV

4 sites · RVs, Tents406 acres · Mancelona, MI

Over 400 acres of private land of upland forest, lake frontage, and cedar swamp with many secluded campsites separated apart for tents and RV's to choose from. Outdoor enthusiasts will enjoy their stay at this secluded and large acreage forest Up North! At nightfall, you will enjoy a starry night sky free from city lights. This is perfect for folks who want to camp but do not wish to be crammed in next to other campers. We offer over 400 acres and 4 sites at a time for campers but we have many more areas that you can camp at to choose from. You will have a lot of room to breathe the fresh forest air. You’ll have excellent opportunities for wildlife photos. This is a wilderness area and you will have cell phone reception mainly on the higher ground areas of the property. We have campsite maps soon online. Please contact us for hunting opportunities for deer season. If you need a break from the quiet and relaxation, you can drive over to Kalkaska (12 miles), Mancelona (8 miles), or Traverse City (30 miles) for dinner and shopping. We have been working on many large and small projects all over our property. We have recently majorly upgraded our road and trail system. Please drive on it gently, respectful of the work we have put into it and of other campers with pets and children. Another project is the rustic boardwalk down to Manistee Lake. This walkway is accessible via Cunningham Rd (the far western border of the property). Bring along some boots that can get a bit dirty, if it rains then it will be muddy, and bring your bug spray. The boardwalk building materials are constructed entirely of onsite native cedar hand-sawn timber – built by your host, Bryce. This leads you to the Manistee Lake frontage. Coming soon: a dock for boating and enjoying the water. We now have 4 outhouses dispersed throughout the property for your convenience. Please understand we are not able to maintain these outhouses and campers must be respectful and clean up after themselves. Bring toilet paper in case there is none in the outhouses. Please respect our Leave-No-Trace policy and remove all trash from your campsite and area. Your leashed pets are allowed but you must be respectful of other campers with pets as well. Do not let your pets run loose and to other campsites. All children and pets must be attended at all times for safety reasons. Ticks are on the rise, and the springtime can be very buggy, and mosquito-y with the surrounding swampy areas. There are bear, coyote, fox, and an assortment of other creatures big and small. This is a wilderness area and so please be aware of wild animals. Never leave children or pets unattended! The northernmost opening has honey bees maintained by an electric fence. Please keep pets and children away from this area. You are welcome to look at it but do not touch the fence or bother the bees, they are busy making honey for all of Michigan. There is direct access to 100s of miles of snowmobiling trails spanning from Leetsville to Kalkaska (MCCCT Access). You’ll have access out the eastern gate but please remember to shut the gate going in and out. Otherwise outside ATV traffic will come in off of state land. All motorized vehicles must stay on the trail system, do not spin tires or tear up the bare ground. The trail system has recently been updated at owner's expense and maintained for your convenience but it is easily rutted. Please be respectful of our trails. You must drive under 10 mph on the property due to safety and insurance regulations. There are areas along the trails that have deep holes close by the trails. Watch your step or driving around these areas. Safe, sober and responsible behavior and driving is imperative on the trails. No alcohol or drug use. Do not put nails or metal in the trees. Do not use firearms without express written permission from the owners and when other campers are around. Hunting season is set for hunting rental on this site. No additional campsites will be offered during this time. Please contact us (owners) for available hunting dates and rates. This property can accommodate up to 8 hunters.
