Our property is 15 acres in beautiful south central Michigan, north of Jackson, and south of Lansing. It features an approximate 2 acre spring fed pond that does not have scum. It eventually flows into a creek that meanders through onsite wetlands into State of Michigan land. It is virgin land and exhibits many forms of wildlife: deer, turkey, rabbits, pheasants, fish, birds, and other. One day this will be our future dream home, but in the meantime we enjoy using it for getaways and peaceful surroundings. Activities include the following: We have kayaked on the pond, had campfires on the hill, hiked through the swamp, fished on the pond, and have had hunters in the fall. It's within a 30 minute drive of Lansing and Jackson which both have numerous activities and culture.

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!

GatherGrounds Resorts acquired The Oaks Campground at the end of the 2025 Season. Our close proximity to major metro areas like Detroit and Fort Wayne, make us a popular place to escape the city and enjoy nature. Situated next to Waterloo State Recreation area, Haehnle Bird Sanctuary, and Portage Lake (an all sports lake), The Oaks Campground has 155 acres to explore on the property, and thousands of acres of bird watching, riding trails, and lakes surrounding the park.
Anglers love our large fishing pond with options for dock or bank fishing—an easy, low-stress way to spend an afternoon and a great first experience for kids. Adventure continues off the shoreline on 120 acres of golf cart riding trails winding beneath towering oaks and through meadow views; it’s the best way to explore the property, catch a sunset, and find your favorite picnic spot (please follow posted rules and speed limits). Around the campground you’ll find playgrounds for the kids, pavilions for reunions and group hangs, and events every weekend during the main season—think themed activities, crafts, and friendly competitions that bring people together. The camp store keeps the little things covered—firewood, ice, essentials—and the big cravings, too, with hand-scooped ice cream that turns any afternoon into a mini celebration. Whether you’re after a Michigan family campground with lakes and trails or convenient RV camping near Detroit, Ann Arbor, Jackson, Toledo, and Fort Wayne, The Oaks blends lakeside relaxation with kid-approved fun. Pick your dates, invite your crew, and we’ll have the good times waiting under the oaks.

We loved our night with the 3 Happy Turtles! Audrey greeted us and was so welcoming and nice. She even gave us fun recommendations for food nearby and offered to do a bonfire or movie night. So sweet! The spot by the barn is so magical, peaceful and quiet. The sunset was beautiful and just what we needed on our trip across the country!

Audrey's place was just what we needed for a nearby event! They had a water hose for us to fill up our tank before parking next to the barn and electricity hook up available for our travel trailer. We love that they were pet-friendly so that we could bring our pup with us. The family was very friendly and kind, the sunsets are beautiful, the surrounding farm land was peaceful.
