The property is secluded on a deadend two-track less than two miles from US-131 between Kalkaska and Mancelona. Torch Lake is only a 20-minute drive and Traverse City is about 50 minutes away. There is a clean porta-potty and water can be provided on request. Also, a 4-person tent can be provided at an additional cost.

This 70-acre family farm no longer raises cattle, but hay and forage crops are still produced on the property. This peaceful, quiet homestead sits at the end of a dead-end road, bordered on both sides by the Black River and located close to the Atlanta State Forest and other recreational, hunting, and sporting areas in the region. At the campsite, you’ll find an appreciation for nature and the abundant wildlife that traverses the farm, along with dark skies, starry nights, and even the northern lights. It may remind you of your own family farm or your grandparents’ place up north. By becoming a guest on the property, you’re helping me accomplish my lifelong dream of restoring the old family homestead and preserving its history. Thank you for your visit — I encourage you to relax, breathe in the fresh air, and use the campsite as your launching point to explore everything this region has to offer.

Peterman Farm is a beautiful spot! It's a very peaceful location on a dead-end road with no neighbors near the farmhouse. The views are lovely: rolling hills, beautiful sunsets and visiting deer. This was the perfect place to camp. Don't miss out on this spot!

This place was absolutely beautiful. Extremely quiet, very nicely groomed smooth trails. Endless stars. No bugs at all. Spent a few days kayaking, riding my quads a bit (slowly to not hurt anything) and just enjoying nature. Host was nice and responded quickly with any of my questions. I recommend showing up in the day as it is very hard to find at night. (We went in the wrong field the first time because it was pitch black) 😂 definitely recommend this spot for a getaway.

This is really a review of the host, because I had a little car trouble and had to turn around, so I haven't been to the site...yet. But big props to the host - Jon was very understanding and went above and beyond working things out. So, I'm looking forward to spending a couple of nights there as soon as work and weather line up. Thanks Jon!

Jon's property is incredible. The sites are huge, private, and well-manicured. He also has hiking trails throughout the property that are abundant with wildlife. During our stay we saw deer, what looked like a small bobcat, fresh bear droppings, and a heron. In addition to this all, we got to watch a spectacular meteor shower one of our nights. The price is pretty comparable to public campgrounds, but what you get is so much more spectacular in terms of nature and privacy. We actually took a day trip to Harrisville State Park and hung out at Lake Huron and were quickly reminded how much nicer it is to have solitude vs sites packed in together. We also hiked just a few minutes away in the Huron National Forest. Bottom line, you'll love it.

Weekend Trip to Green Acres

James was a friendly and kind host. You could pull up close to the site. He met us and brought out a fire ring and wood for us to use, even helped set the fire. The pond was pretty, the land was mowed and there were many birds and deer around in the AM to wake up to. His indoor facilities were clean, newer and a treat for campers: shower, sink and private toilet (there was another indoor bedroom and bathroom facilities for the geodome guests). A full kitchen with stove, sink, fridge, coffeemaker to be shared between campers and geodome guests. Charge up your devices, get some potable water. We asked about his canoe / kayaks and he kindly offered to put them in the Au Sable River for a few hours — we asked him to come along. It was a nice place to land — we would return and recommend him. He is looking for suggestions, so bring them. Thanks, James!

Excelent lot. Neighbors are great and permenent residents. Safety is not a concern. A rare spot I did not lock my camper for day trips. A word of caution. The communication infrastructure is at a 2014 level at best. Raise device 11 feet to get 5 g signal. Loved the stay.Starlink

Weekend Trip to Sunshine Pond View lot 14

We camped in our hard sided pop-up at chris' private, secluded and serene property near Houghton lake for a bit of winter camping. We brought our five year old, and our two friendly pups. Our expectations were far exceeded, and Chris was an awesome host. Listing is accurate, but doesn't do the location justice. Very quiet with lots of wildlife around.
