Weekend Trip to Harvest Village - Farmstay

This was our 3rd time we have stayed! The kids always ask to come back! Thank you Dan and Arlene for your hospitality! We hope to come back again!

Weekend Trip to Ricky’s Pine River hunt/camp

Beautiful property and cabin. Rick was a great host. Lots of additional recreation opportunities on public land just down the road. The family had a blast and we will be booking again in the future

Really great little cabin and Rick is a fantastic host. We enjoyed hiking around the property in the snow looking for big pines. Also a great place to just relax and unwind. We’ll definitely be back!

Jøtul, over 150 years of Scandinavian stove expertise.

Weekend Trip to Ricky’s Pine River hunt/camp

This is the coziest cabin ever if you'd like to experience being tucked away in the middle of winter. We enjoyed snowfall all day and there was already over a foot of snow on the ground, making for great snowshoeing. Our dogs loved running and playing with host dog Jack. The Jøtul stove is amazing, Scandinavian ingenuity! Nearby Cadillac is a great town to visit for eats and drinks!

Weekend Trip to Ricky’s Pine River hunt/camp

Winter camping at its finest! 2-3 feet of snow but the woodstove kept us plenty warm! 80 acres of beautiful land to wander/snowshoe around. Peace and quiet. Rick was responsive and super helpful when we got turned around snowshoeing. Basics were provided. No electricity or water so make sure you bring candles/solar lights and something to charge your phones with. We did just find by candlelight and headlamps. Always a bonus to unplug from your phone for an entire weekend. We will definitely be back!

Rick is a very generous down to earth guy. It is a rustic cabin so expect minimal electricity and operating a wood stove which is either really hot or very cold (we went in winter). All in all I highly recommend.

Rick was super nice! Our dogs, along with his got along really well! It snowed the next morning we left. The wood stove was burning, snowflakes gently falling. Smell of firewood in an off grid cabin beats everything else. Happy Thanksgiving🦃🍁

The property was amazing, and the accommodations were the same. The best part was the owner, who was very friendly and seemed like an uncle within the first ten minutes. His pup Jack is awfully nice too! Would most definitely go again, and would recommend this spot ten times over. A real escape from the grind.

I loved staying at Gabriel’s cabin. It was a wonderful escape from fast-paced life, especially with the labyrinth and spirit wheel. Definitely will be back!

4 nights at Ricky’s Pine River hunt/camp

A quiet, cozy, lovely cabin full of firewood. Relative peace and quiet, lots of woods to walk in, lots of deadfall to gather, mushrooms fungi and moss everywhere, a really healthy ecosystem that is a pleasure to relax in. Great for writing!

3 nights at Ricky’s Pine River hunt/camp

Quiet, lovely, in the rain enjoyed fire on porch and playing uno eating left over Halloween candy! Perfect to have some private space to connect to nature and get away from people. Clean and perfect!

3 nights at Ricky’s Pine River hunt/camp

What a lovely little cabin in the woods! The dogs loved romping down the two track, and we enjoyed the fire pit and the cozy warmth of the cabin. Rick and Jack were friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back.

The 40 Acre Wood

5 sites · Lodging40 acres · Shelby, MI

www.facebook.com/the40acrewood Before our forest was "owned," it belonged to the Odawa people. Once white settlers arrived and governments were established, land deeds were written. We traced those deeds back through the Oceana County Register of Deeds and found that larger tracts of land were owned by people from Chicago and California, which were later divided into smaller parcels. Interestingly, one owner lost the property after failing to pay back taxes of $3.50, shortly after World War II. It is likely that he never returned. In the mid-1900s, Ed Dewey was the owner. Today, we have a cabin on the east side of the 40 acres that was built by Ed, entirely constructed with oak. He had three sawmills there, each powered by the engines of old Studebakers. He cut and milled enormous oak trees, using the wood to construct crates for transporting cherries. Today, you can still see old oak crates on various farms, but they are slowly being replaced by plastic. Ed never finished the little cabin, and the story goes that he died there. The next owners were a couple from Inkster, near Detroit. Despite Ed leaving an acre of "yard art" all over, the place was used as a vacation home after a 50-foot long mobile home was placed near the cabin. As they aged, they sold off their property to us. First, we acquired the 20 acres where the Cozy Camper Cabin resides, then the 7 acres near Weaver Road and 44th, and finally, the remaining 13 acres with the cabin. We began purchasing the property in parcels in 1992 for $500 an acre and owned it all by 1998. From 1998 to 2008, we removed the mobile home, cleaned up all the yard art, refurbished the cabin, added a garage, and built a new shed nearby. The Hipcamp shed was originally built in 1999 and has been used for storage until it was converted into a unique little place in the woods in 2021. Over the years, our Forester has carefully managed the property. We have logged three times. The first round was to remove 75 huge oak trees. The second round involved culling mature poplar trees. The last time, we took out 276 mature oaks and beeches. A Woodsman spent a year cutting down the tops of the trees. Clearing these old growth trees revitalized the forest, as planned. Today, there are over two miles of trails running throughout the property. Some were logging roads, while others were carved out over time. The land is flat to the north but hilly to the south, as these are forested sand dunes. There are approximately a million trees on the property, densely forested with many large "mother trees" such as oaks, beeches, maples, and pines. The poplar trees are growing rapidly, as they do. Wild cherry, sassafras, beeches, oaks, and maples are also growing quickly and thickly. To the south, there are fenced-in asparagus fields and cherry orchards. To the north, on the other side of Weaver Road, is the privately owned Silver Lake Airport, which remains quiet most of the time. On the east side of our 40 acres, you'll find our cabin and buildings, and we kindly ask you to avoid wandering onto that side of the property. Signs will alert you when you get close. To the west, there is a 20-acre section occasionally occupied by some "Dunners." The area is famous for Silver Lake State Park and the sand dunes, located about 2.5 miles northwest of us. Our neighbors in that area have dune buggies, and they sometimes drive around their property, creating more noise than we prefer. It's possible that you may encounter this during your visit, so please be aware. Deer are abundant in the area, and in 2021, we spotted a porcupine for the first time, although we have occasionally seen evidence of their presence through bark-stripped maples. Raccoons come and go, while turkeys are frequent visitors at times. You can hear coyotes yipping away at night, and depending on the time of year and migratory season, you'll see lots and lots of birds. We're pleased to report that there is no poison ivy on the property! It is a beautiful place in the woods, not far from many entertaining activities suitable for both the young and old. Come and visit, but please be respectful of the land and our privacy while enjoying yours. Love Mother Earth while you are here and nourish your soul.
