Over 7 acres of gentle sloping meadow with views of Lake Michigan, beside a growing family farm and homestead. Our gently sloped meadow and shady pine grove are perfect for campers seeking more private, quiet camping, and the Upper Room invites you indoors, while enjoying the outdoors. In the pine grove, a freestanding deck overlooks Lake Michigan, with views of Beaver Island and Great Lakes freighters. On clear nights you can glimpse beams from a handful of lighthouses. The pine trees offer shade and protection from weather without blocking the breeze (and the pine duff creates a spectacularly soft ground for sleeping on). Or set up your tent on the hillside--open your flap to Lake Michigan's famous sunsets, or face south to see a blanket of treetops. Near the barn, your RV has a flat spot to park at the base of the "Southern Slope" meadow full of wildflowers and monarch butterflies. For guests wanting more creature comforts, the Upper Room Glamp Apartment has all the amenities--television, queen bed, dry kitchenette, and access to the main house bathroom and shower. All options have access to fire rings and views of countless stars on a clear night. You'll be staying minutes from multiple beaches for swimming, boating, fishing, and rock-hunting. Our sites make a great HQ for day trips to Mackinac Island, Beaver Island, Mackinaw City, Petoskey, and Charlevoix, or a way-point on Fall Color Tours or drives up the Tunnel of Trees on M-119. The famous Legs Inn and Petoskey Brewing Company's 2nd location are only a mile away, Moose Jaw Junction is close, and one can walk to the Crow's Nest Restaurant.

Don't just taste island living when you can emerse yourself in the middle of the largest island in Lake Michigan. Beaver Island offers remote experiences unlike any other you can grasp. Explore the trails, inland lakes, and habitat around the island or outside your tent door. The property has multiple trails amongst the maple trees and hemlocks. During the winter, you can attempt to ice skate in the swamp and in the spring you can hear maple sap dripping. The "state bird", mosquito, migrates back in May, but don't be scared off because there is still much to explore before the golden fall takes your breath away. The property is located near 5 miles from Michigan's only International Dark Sky Sanctuary. The property is also 2 miles from the Fox Lake boat launch and 3 miles from Barney's Lake boat launch, two of the islands best fishing holes. Rental includes (as long as it fits): two pair of snowshoes, two kayaks, and a canoe with PFDs. A shared flush toilet and hot shower is a short 2 minute walk into our residence with our family including a quality mouser (cat) that likes to go outside sometimes. A wagon or sled will be provided to make the 2 minute trek to the tent site. Driving to the site will not be permitted or available, especially when the snow flies. We are 1.5 miles from Fresh Air Aviation, 6.0 miles from Island Air, and 6.4 miles from the Beaver Island Boat Company. Please note: planes do not fly when there is inclement weather and the ferry is only seasonal. Be prepared to make plans in case you are not able to fly over or get stuck on island a few extra days. (Yes, this absolutely does happen!) Make sure to check the ferry schedule as well. This rental does not provide transportation. Car and bike rentals are available on island, but make sure to plan ahead especially in the peak season. Cars are permitted on the ferry with advance notice. We can also recommend different "taxi drivers" as Uber and Lyft are a mainland luxury not found on island. Things to note: there is a grocery store and gas station with limited hours. A health center is on island for medical emergencies. The property is a Verizon only location.

Don't just taste island living when you can emerse yourself in the middle of the largest island in Lake Michigan. Beaver Island offers remote experiences unlike any other you can grasp. Explore the trails, inland lakes, and habitat around the island or outside your tent door. The property has multiple trails amongst the maple trees and hemlocks. During the winter, you can attempt to ice skate in the swamp and in the spring you can hear maple sap dripping. The "state bird", mosquito, migrates back in May, but don't be scared off because there is still much to explore before the golden fall takes your breath away. The property is located near 5 miles from Michigan's only International Dark Sky Sanctuary. The property is also 2 miles from the Fox Lake boat launch and 3 miles from Barney's Lake boat launch, two of the islands best fishing holes. Rental includes (as long as it fits): two pair of snowshoes, two kayaks, and a canoe with PFDs. A shared flush toilet and hot shower is a short 2 minute walk into our residence with our family including a quality mouser (cat) that likes to go outside sometimes. A wagon or sled will be provided to make the 2 minute trek to the tent site. Driving to the site will not be permitted or available, especially when the snow flies. We are 1.5 miles from Fresh Air Aviation, 6.0 miles from Island Air, and 6.4 miles from the Beaver Island Boat Company. Please note: planes do not fly when there is inclement weather and the ferry is only seasonal. Be prepared to make plans in case you are not able to fly over or get stuck on island a few extra days. (Yes, this absolutely does happen!) Make sure to check the ferry schedule as well. This rental does not provide transportation. Car and bike rentals are available on island, but make sure to plan ahead especially in the peak season. Cars are permitted on the ferry with advance notice. We can also recommend different "taxi drivers" as Uber and Lyft are a mainland luxury not found on island. Things to note: there is a grocery store and gas station with limited hours. A health center is on island for medical emergencies. The property is a Verizon only location.

Bathrooms were clean and cute.. Showers were hot. Yard games were available to use. This has to be one of the best hipcamps we’ve been to! A lot of thought has been put into this, and we are grateful to have experienced it. Thanks Jean!

Jeannie & I loved Phil & Stormy's Place. It was quiet this time of year, and we were lucky to be the only folks at their Camp. They definitely had made it their own, and have great amenities. Firewood & Firepit, 30 amp service, a water hose , picnic table & dry kindling.. 2 Porta Potties on site, and a RV cleanout. Great Wooden games around the site for folks enjoyment. Phil is a world renown Game maker who makes Games and interesting items, which he makes in his shop on site. Sends it all around the world. Besides meeting Phil and Chit chatting, because we are both Hip Camp Hosts, Phil gave us a tour of his Shop and woodworking area. Pretty impressive. He was a great host, and is Passionate about Kubb, a Yard game that was originally played overseas, but because of Phi, brought the game to the US. He actually has his own playing field. We plan on visiting again, as we loved the vibe

I loved the view! Granted it was very windy the day I stayed there so that’s something to consider since your by lake. Very easy to get to the site and overall pretty clean. Had some clutter here and there but not a big deal. My only major critique is one, maybe put stone down on the path to the beach because it had really deep ruts and it was very muddy. I got my car stuck quite a few times. The other is the shower water did not really get warm. Again, not the end of the world but addressing those few things would make the site even better than it already is. Overall I’d give it an 8/10
