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 site was a great place to have some peace and quiet while having access to the many activities in the area. Heather was a wonderful host, readily responding to questions and accommodating our needs.

The main road in (12 Mile Road) was way more rugged than I had expected. That being said, the site was very remote and extremely peaceful. You can probably make it in (as others suggested, come in from the west off Hemlock) with 2WD, but I was glad I had 4WD for peace of mind.
Also, the site it beautiful! The electric hookup was super convenient. The shower appeared to be hooked directly to the well water line. However, there was a heater there ready to be installed. We used my solar shower which was decently warm.
There are plenty of trails on site and my dog had a blast being off leash the entire week. We did venture into Hungerford for a much longer hike. There was a super nice couple there our first night, but we had the place to ourselves the rest of the week. What a gem of a site. Would love to have a group camp there in the future.

Super awesome remote camping space. It’s hard to find anything this remote with water and power. Super thrilled and would go back.

We had an amazing time at sandy fern. The hosts were amazing and we loved all of the activities on sight. There is much to see and do around the area, and everything was perfect. Thank you Charles and Sara!

We loved camping at Sandy Fern. It was very private at quiet. We loved it because it was like boondocking, but with full hookups! The site is huge and is a pull through, so no issue getting into it. They also have a wonderful fire pit and horse shoes. We had a great time and highly recommend if you like piece and quiet.

I stayed one night in my camper van, a 2wd Ram ProMaster 3500. Definitely approach from the west (from Hemlock), not from the east as there's a long, sandy ascent that really requires 4wd this way; my van didn't have a prayer of making it, and it's a long way to back out but there's no choice 'cause there's no way to turn around. Come from the west and you're fine!
The site is really great. I was the only inhabitant, but there are multiple electric hookups all around the big fire ring. Pretty cool to have electric way out in the woods...that had to be a major project getting wires run. There's a very clean porta john on site too. For my night here, I had total privacy, excellent stars, and quiet - definitely will return.

Well maintained yard with a wide view of farmland. It features a mowed lane that leads to some woods that works great for a dog walk. The Interlochen State Park is just 15 mins. away. The location offers a good view of the night sky with no yard lights nearby.

Camp Sandyfern completely exceeded our expectations. From firewood to WiFi, everything we needed was right there—and honestly, we weren’t expecting that level of comfort! The hosts were incredibly thoughtful, checking in occasionally via text just to make sure we were doing great. They also provided clear, easy-to-follow instructions that made getting there and settling in a breeze. We stayed for 3 nights and genuinely wish we had booked 5—it was that good. A perfect blend of nature and convenience. We’ll definitely be coming back

Leslie was a lovely host and the land was a perfect spot to look at the stars and get out of the city, not too far from downtown and the beach. It was perfect.

An absolutely lovely place! Warm and kind hosts made us feel welcome, and the place itself was very easy to set up in, with well maintained full hook ups. The location was great for our needs, very quiet and relaxing and surprisingly enough, the cell reception was very good too. If we ever come back this way we will make sure to stop here again.

Thank you Leslie! What a lovely welcome from your parents and you! What a perfect spot (with full hook up)😊 to navigate from. We had family in town, so were away to the 4th of July fireworks, parade and then lake Michigan swim and beach time. Quiet and serene location!

We loved camping with my sister and bro/in-law. We each had our own camper and site. Full hook up was great! Very peaceful and pretty. Great bird watching. Saw deer. Owners were very helpful and available if needed. Lots to do in the area. Would love to come back sometime. ❤️

We had a great stay. We appreciated the friendly owners who met us on arrival and communicated very well throughout. The location was a nice level pad with water and electric - so easy. This is a beautiful part of the state with much to see very close. Would stay here again in a heartbeat. Thank you!

AWESOME base camp for trail riding at Hungerford. The campsite was huge, flat, and private, with water and electricity. What more could you ask?? Very quiet. Perfect balance of sun and shade. Plenty of room for the horse trailer, travel trailer, and portable corral.
My dogs were in heaven exploring the property and we felt completely safe letting them do so. No place for them to get in trouble.
We really appreciate that Steven was so quick to respond when our other reservation fell through. He saved our vacation!
