This land is great for people who are passing thru and need a spot to stay a night, Orv and dirt bike trails about a 1/2 mile from property. There is a big horseback trail that butts up against the property called Wildwood trails. Also a very quiet area with only 1 house across the road. There will be a lot of raspberries come fall all over the property

Ted is an incredibly wonderful person. Everything about his place is wonderful and his hospitality goes above and beyond expectation. I will definitely be back and will encourage others to visit as well. You don't meet very many people like this guy, and when you do, not only do you find a great place to camp but you also find a friend as well.

Great spot to camp while on a long motorcycle tour. Ted was prompt with his communication. His site has everything you need. Power for charging your phone, an outdoor shower, a table with a couple chairs next to a fire ring and a clean porta-potty. If you don’t feel like cooking ride into Boyne City and go to Santé. The food was excellent.
