I am creating a homestead based on simple but holistic living. The cabin was built built by myself with the help of family and friends. There are a number of trails to walk on the 35 private acreage of rolling hills. This heavily wooded land hosts much wildlife and beautiful scenery. There is a sport court which provides opportunities to play basketball, volleyball, pickleball, or badminton. The property is a work in progress with lots of plans for the future; including a food forest, natural pool, recreation building (being built summer 2022), and more.. The property offers a chance to reconnect with each other, yourself, or the natural world in a simplistic and harmonious way. I hope you come experience it! 35 private acres of forest on rolling hill terrain. Lots of wildlife nestled very close to the flat river; 30-40 minutes away from Grand Rapids. The Fred Meijer trail provides great biking or hiking opportunities. Lazy float tubing or kayaking down the flat river is very popular and only a short walk away. Horse back riding, golf courses, and an amazing local bakery all within a couple miles. And a fun sport court (basketball hoop, volleyball/badminton/pickelball net all right on site!

My wife and I are slowly starting up our own little farm. We have 2 indoor cats, 1 outdoor cat, a dog, chickens and two ducks. We are on 34 acres and have a river that runs through the middle of it. We are 10 minutes from Alma and 20 minutes from Mt Pleasant. Lumberjack park is about 2 minutes away and Stearns preserve is about 5 mins away where you can walk or ride bike on a nice paved trail. We have a small garden that we plant every summer and plan to start a small farm stand this year. We are in a quiet area with lots of wildlife. We have 1 spot near the house with a view of the river that can support electric hook for a smaller RV and can attach a garden hose for water if needed. We do have a “field” that RVs can use but there is no hook up and there ground may not be level. We have many options for rustic tent camping along the river. No public restroom available. We can also provide some fire wood for campfires for a small cost. Along the river fires are allowed but must be contained in a fire ring. If camping by the field fires will be dependent on conditions. We have 3 kayaks and a canoe that can be used with prior consent. There is a park up river where you can put in and then can exit at our house which is about an hour on the river. We are very new to this and just purchased a UTV so we will be able to start making trails and clearing areas. But for now, camping along the river you will have to walk (and carry belongings) through tall grass to the site you desire. Quiet time 11 pm. We are an easy going couple that just want to share this slice of paradise with others! WiFi available

This is a great spot off the beaten path. A hidden gem. Scott and his wife were super welcoming on their property and we're able to help with anything we needed. Deer walked thru the camp and property. Lovely walking path thru the property as well. Very welcoming. We will definitely be back soon.

Nice spot with a concrete pad not too far from 31. A bit of road noise, but it quieted down at night. I was there for a quick stay, so, unfortunately, I didn't get a chance to enjoy the trails.

This was our first time using Hipcamp and it was a great experience. Place looks just like the pictures, beautiful and cozy. Far away from town to feel like you've gotten away but close enough that you can run and grab something at walmart or get a bite to eat if you don't feel like cooking. Scott was a great host, we were having a hard time getting our fire going since it had been raining a few days before. He came to our rescue and we sat and enjoyed chatting for the evening. Inside the camper was a cute little smore set up that we took advantage of. It was clean and spacious. You could tell it's been taken great care of. Will definitely be back!

We had an absolute blast! Scott and Christine were extremely accommodating hosts. The camper was stocked and clean, the campsite was well lit and so nice and quiet. We saw deer and turkey in the mornings, sipping coffee by the fire. They have all the tools and utensils you may need for cooking either in the kitchen or on the fire. 10/10 would recommend and will be returning. Thank you!

Following my review on the main campsite, this one was a great addition for my larger group. Scott helped us back in our pop-up camper. There’s a few different ways to park your camper if it is similar to our pop-up. The extra site has its own picnic table and fire pit. Close enough to the main site to feel like you’re camping together, but far enough to feel private as well. Full hook-ups were available as stated in the listing. Would definitely recommend to larger groups!

Scott and Christine are very friendly and welcoming. They made sure we were all settled in and even helped us back in the pop-up camper to the extra campsite. So honored to be the first group to use the extra site! My group included 7 adults and 1 dog. We had a great time relaxing, playing games, and making some amazing food over the fire! The campsites felt very private and perfect for camping. The weekend we stayed was hot and humid, but the AC in the camper felt amazing. The camper was spacious and had just about everything you need. There’s a nice trail that was perfect for walking the dog. Thank you Scott and Christine for being amazing hosts and we loved getting to know you! We would love to stay again!

Weekend Trip to Camper On 11 Acres, Private Site

I highly recommend Scott & Kristine's listing! It was perfect for what we envisioned with our toddler and 2 dogs; a camping feeling while still having a space with a door to keep said toddler from escaping, and also a retreat from the rain and heat. Even though Scott & Kristine reside on the property the site is private, and had just about everything we needed plus more. The dogs had space to be off leads, the property had a nice trail, Scott and Kristine came over to introduce themselves and give us the lay of the land, which was very nice and the RV is HUGE, the pictures don't do it justice. Not a negative but something to keep in mind if you're a hot sleeper like me, the bed itself is comfortable but it sleeps VERY hot. Whatever the material the mattress is made of just exudes heat. While the air conditioner works VERY well I needed a robust fan for more air movement and the fan they had available just didn't cut it. So I would suggest if you are a hot sleeper bring a small powerful fan, crank the AC up at night and you should be golden! All in all, if we end back up in Kalamazoo we would absolutely stay here again!

Weekend Trip to Camper On 11 Acres, Private Site

Scott and Christine's 11 acre land was a peaceful place to be at. Their camper was a sweet experience for any family that loves to be outdoors and enjoy the luxury of being home away from home. It's perfect for small families and larger families. We brought our family pet dog along with us and he loved the camping/glamping in an RV as well as running around on the trails that Scott and his family have on their 11 acre land. It was beautiful to leave the city and be in the sticks of the charter township, Comstock. At Scott and Christine property we fully enjoyed hearing all the serene sounds of nature that you rarely hear in the hustle and bustle of a city. Inside their RV provided everything needed to camp/glamp; pots, pans, cooking utensils, cleaning supplies, flat skillets, griddles, grills, Dutch oven, conventional RV oven, microwave, RV stove, eating utensils, paper plates, paper and plastic cups, Keurig coffee maker. Literally everything you could think of that you would need or want to camp/glamp comfortably was already there. They even had shampoo/conditioner, body wash, anti microbial hand soap, cleaning supplies, deep woods off spray, first aide kits, full body towels, hand towels etc, to keep clean. We brought our own toiletries. It definitely was a cozy home away from home. Don't worry if you forgot to pack anything because chances are that Scott and Christine got you covered. Bring your loved ones and have a relaxing time.
