Hidden Pond & River Oasis

47mi from Ravenna · 1 site · Tent
More photos coming when the snow melts Choices abound on this secluded, approximately 14-acre property, which hosts only one campsite. Float on the pond, fish in the middle branch of the Pere Marquette River, hike the trails on the property, or roam in the adjoining 600-acre tract of national forest—it's all up to you. Whatever you decide, you won't run out of outdoor recreational opportunities at our very private wilderness oasis. Upon arrival, you'll receive an access code to unlock the gate, which protects a long driveway leading into the heart of the campsite. A mowed area, perfect for pitching your tent, overlooks private Beaver Lake and is also the location of a fire ring, a picnic table, and an electrical outlet. Beaver Lake is an approximately six-acre body of water that we consider more of a pond. While we find the lake too swampy, shallow, and pond-like for swimming, we enjoy floating on it in rafts. Kayaks, canoes, or small fishing boats are also appropriate. A steep hill leads down to the shore, so watercraft must be small enough to carry by hand. Spring-fed holes on the west side of the lake have yielded small bass. A path to the north leads to the middle branch of the renowned Pere Marquette River. Spring-fed, the river stays cold year-round. Anglers should be sure to have proper licensing before fishing. Wading in the river is refreshing but must be undertaken with caution due to the rapid current and deep holes. The majority of the property is heavily wooded, and wildlife abounds. The land offers several short hiking trails marked with blazes: a trail around the lake, a path to the river, and a trail bordering the Manistee National Forest. Intrepid campers can meander into the national forest and explore the 600 acres of adjoining land—but be careful, there are no marked trails! There are no bathroom or shower facilities on site, so campers must plan to bring their own camping toilet. If you'll be there for several days or longer and are interested in a paid port-a-potty, we can arrange to have one delivered. There is absolutely no ATV riding on the property, and there are no ATV trails nearby. Please find a different area to camp if you plan to bring ATVs or side-by-sides.

Wading in the river is refreshing but must be undertaken with caution due to the rapid current and deep holes. The majority of the property is heavily wooded, and wildlife abounds. The land offers several short hiking trails marked with blazes: a trail around the lake, a path to the river, and a trail bordering the Manistee National Forest. Intrepid campers can meander into the national forest and explore the 600 acres of adjoining land—but be careful, there are no marked trails! There are no bathroom or shower facilities on site, so campers must plan to bring their own camping toilet. If you'll be there for several days or longer and are interested in a paid port-a-potty, we can arrange to have one delivered. There is absolutely no ATV riding on the property, and there are no ATV trails nearby. Please find a different area to camp if you plan to bring ATVs or side-by-sides.
