41mi from Portland · 2 sites · Tents, RVs · Grand Rapids, MIAfter having some friends set up camp over Memorial Day weekend, we thought "Hey, maybe other like-minded folks would be interested in camping in our cozy beautiful flower-filled backyard right here in the city!?"
GREAT LOCATION for ALL SORTS of G.R. Adventures!
• Bike trails along the Grand River to Millennium Park, Johnson Park Disc Golf, & Indian Mound Kent Trails just 3 blocks away!
• 4 blocks from the John Ball Zoo!
• 8 blocks from GVSU Pew Campus
• less than a mile from downtown, where just over the Blue Bridge on the other side of the river is Van Andel Arena, GLC Live @ 20 Monroe concert venue, Founder's brewery & the DeVos Place convention center!
Safe, quiet neighborhood w/ lots of old Michigan deciduous trees
Off-street parking in backyard
(if your car-camping:)
Safe fenced-in property
w/ security camera
There is an outdoor dining area under a big cherry tree... a fire pit... primitive outdoor bathroom and access to electricity & water.
Alcohol etc. friendly (legal-age only, obvs)
On one side of our backyard here in the city is a large flower & vegetable garden, sheltered from a very low-key private parking lot for a 100yr old Polish Hall... and the neighbors on the other side are friendly & super chill!
It's a nice, easy walk to downtown
&/or
there are two LIME Program bike & scooter share areas 2 blocks from the house
&
a city bus stop 1 block away!
There's room for 3 tents:
(or a couple LARGE family tents!:)
10'x'14' tent spots,
6'x8' tent spot,
& if necessary, room for a small 2-person backpacking/solo tent

Message or Text for more details:)
NOTE!!!
RV owners please message for the details of if we will be able to accommodate your set-up here in the heart of the city.
We will never pack in numerous people/parties at once!
If there is a family of more than 4 camping already, we most likely will not book another party... ( unless, of course, two families traveling together are looking to book :)
