Pull off the blacktop onto the grassy drive running through the field and forest. The sites are just off of the road, and minutes from lots of local culture and recreation. We do have two sites available, but we'll only take one booking at a time. So, you'll have the area to yourself and your choice of campsites. Groups that add up to at least 8 people to the booking can use both sites. The clearing is about an acre and is surrounded by forest. Our home is next door, but you have your own drive.

Welcome to Fabulous Fennville
Quiet end of the road property-Birders, Stargazing, Foraging.
Workshops Seasonally thru Art duJour.org
Birds abound. Migrating Sandhills through May. Bees abuzz and the milkweed full of Monarchs.
The sultry evening air lengthens the day until the fire flies remind us to stop and enjoy the night-lite show.
It’s an authentic slice of nature with a pond backdrop and a perch atop of a slope side forest. Enjoy a sunset stretch on a yoga mat in the near by Gazebo. Watch the morning sun creep over the pond with a cup of artisan crafted coffee roasted on site.
Private yet so close to Saugatuck (10min) Douglas (5min) and Fennville. Cannabis friendly and local musicians sometimes join us for fire pit impromptu when stars align.
We’ve set aside a slice of Art Farm Fennville for quiet contemplation. 24 hrs access to the restroom and the shower. Communal kitchen space of the Art barn has toaster oven, electric tea kettle, mini fridge, rice cooker, grill and bbq. Basic condiments on table.
You will find a pastural setting of permaculture principles with paths to explore.

The farm hand manager lived where the barn bathroom is. The property is just south of the Allegan state game area, where mint was grown around 1900. The owner AM Todd created the double distilled mint process and sold it to Wrigley for double mint gum.

21mi from Saugatuck · 3 sites · RVs, Lodging
This fun property is just under 7 acres - butted up to another 12 acres of public land (and boat launch) with trails, boardwalk and a dock on 51 acre Lake Eleven.
The property is shared by (2) full-hook up RV sites and a cabin. If available, the cabin and sites may be rented together however the owners, Jim and Maria, use the cabin much of the summer leaving just the RV sites available.
The property is at mile market 13 of the Kal-Haven Trail - the midpoint. The Kal-Haven Trail is a biking, cross-country skiing, walking, running, snowmobiling - you name it, the trail that goes 34 miles from Kalamazoo to South Haven. Literally steps from the property and you are on the trail.
But you may not need to leave the property, with 6.3 acres of woods and field, with trail cut through PLUS the added public lands butted up to Tincan's property line, giving almost 20 acres to roam.
Each RV site - far enough apart to be separate, close enough if you and friends/family want to camp together, has a fire pit and fireplace. Each RV site offers water, 30|50AMP electrical and septic.
The dock may have availability for keeping you boat - please inquire. There are kayaks and some bikes (mostly teen and adult size) that may be used. These are shared amenities for the cabin and campsite guests and offered on a first come, first serve basis.
There are surprises galore around the property; big foots to be found tucked around the property, games, and overall just a fun place to be.
This was a run-down fishing cabin Jim and Maria lovingly brough back to life as a second home and they delight in sharing it. Jim often referred to it as "The Tincan" while working on it as it was - indeed, a tin shack and the name stuck.
Kate, your booking coordinator, helps Jim and Maria tend to the administrative side of getting the property booked and keeping the details in order. Once booked you'll get contact info for Kate, who will take care of most communications and logistics, and Jim/Maria who will also be available to help as needed.

Originally owned by Seymour and Dorothy Pittsley. The house was built during the depression on a chicken coop loan. All the wood in the home was harvested off the property. Still owned by the same family, but now occupied by the grandson and wife.

Park your RV under our large oak and pine trees, or in the cleared grass field. Out quaint little spot is located next to an I-196 overpass. Sites are at least 200 feet from the road, out of site from most neighbors. A paved walking and biking trail is just a three minute walk from your camp site. The state park is 1 mile away and a small convenience store is located between the two. Public beaches on lake Michigan are only 5 miles away.

We stayed at Sam's Place Bell Tent for one night of our spring "moms weekend" with 4 moms and 4 babies/toddlers in early May and had a great time!
Julie's farm was easy to find. We were able to just call her using the contact info in our reservation once we arrived and she came right out to meet and gave us an orientation of the space. Julie is so sweet and friendly and really went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable and set for our stay.
Julie had cots with cushions as well as an air mattress (added to our booking in advance) set up in the bell tent before we arrived. There was a buddy heater with propane tank ready for us (VERY appreciated as the temps were in the 30s overnight) and a welcome bucket with assorted snacks, smores kit, and even pack of fire coloring tablets for our campfire. A very generous bundle of firewood was on the site, a picnic table, sunbrella, a couple of camp chairs, and twinkle lights around the tent. Her usual refreshments station wasn't quite set up for the season yet so she made a point of bringing us a large thermos of hot water and everything we could need for warm beverages!
A water spigot and porta potty nearby provided for essential needs and we all enjoyed meandering the farm and seeing the friendly animals.
Lovely space, great host, and fun time for kids and adults alike.

Fun for the kids with vintage video games if the weathers off and lots of lake fun and a cool forest slide for warm weather sledding!
Great stop on our mostly rustic spring break so we got to do some laundry and get showers and recharge in real beds!

Weekend Trip to Art Farm Fennville
I'm so glad I opted for a yurt instead of a tent the weekend I spent here. Christine's yurt on the private island was incredible! Absolutely beautiful scenery, herb garden right outside your door, and a cozy bed. What an excellent weekend!
Christine was such a warm and attentive host. She was very welcoming and helpful, while giving us plenty of space to enjoy her land. I can't wait to return here in the summer!
Helpful tips:
**Bring slippers to wear inside the yurt so you can leave your muddy boots at the door
**She has a large selection of DVDs in the yurt, so bring a portable DVD player if you want to take advantage of that
**Bring tick repelling bug spray because we did notice at least one while we were there
