Our sight offers scenic views of sunrise on the riverbend as well as the New Richmond Swing Bridge, now open to pedestrian traffic only.

Tincan Camp

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.

Arcade game, air hockey, board games galore

Trails and boardwalk across the 6.3 acres

2Chicks And A Farm

7 camp sites, 1 RV site, 3 Yurts, a Bohemian camp site, and new this year a TeePee Site and Hammock site. For a total of 13 options. Also new this year is a pond, an above ground pool, a second Porta Pottie, an Automated External Defibrillator (AED) and a more extensive First Aide Kit, and finally a Keurig and more options at the ‘Refreshment / Charging Station’. 

2Chicks And A Farm is a small working farm on 20 acres, owned and run by Julie and Theresa Graham. We are 13 minutes from South Haven and the lake. 30 minutes from the city of Kalamazoo. And just under an hour from Grand Rapids. 

About half of the 20 acres is wooded, which is where three of our camp sites, Hammock Haven are located. Each site has a fire ring & picnic table. 

Three camp sites are located in the pasture. One is at the bottom of the pasture (1) and quite open. It can accommodate larger groups with multiple tents. It can also take a larger RV. 

A more secluded site (5) is half open and half in light woods., and is located at the top of the pasture. 

The others are in the middle of the pasture, 2 for sun lovers and 3 for those who prefer more shade. 

For those who prefer more seclusion, we have cleared three sites in the woods.

All sites have a fire ring, or metal fire pit, and picnic table. Some have fire wood boxes (we’re working on making a box for all sites).  

We have an outdoor propane shower that provides both hot and cold water. This is free. 

A coffee bar is on the back deck. Coffee is brewing around 7am. We also provide hot water, teas, hot chocolate and cider. Feeling a little peckish before breakfast, or after dinner? Help yourself to a snack. This is all free, though small donations are welcomed. 

Our goats, poultry, pigs, rabbits, cats and dogs and produce take up about an acre and a half. Then the rest is open space. 

You are welcome to collect eggs for breakfast and fresh produce from our gardens (additional fee). Use the BBQ or smoker. And even join in on farm chores if you are so inclined. 

Please try to plan to check-in by 9pm. Exceptions can be made. 

There are locally mandated quiet hours (10-7 Sun through Thur, and 11-7 Fri and Sat). Hanging out by a fire and chatting is fine.

Lake Nicholas. 12 acre totally private lake with great fishing. 36 feet deep. 

Have A Lake Of Your Own!

The property was originally owned by a family name Nichols (thus the name of the lake). It was handed down to the sons who each owned half the property. The driveway down the middle of property that leads to the lake was originally a fence line that divided the two pieces of property. The brothers did not get along and their are several stories of their warring on how to maintain the property.My parents bought this piece of property in 1964 and created a camp called "Lakeside Farm Camp", a small all boys camp. The camp has gone through several changes since then but has always been owned by&nbsp;the Edwards family. In 1984 the name was changed to "Cedar Lodge" a coed camp that specializes in English horseback riding and offering high level general camp activities.&nbsp;Enjoy the peace and quiet of our totally private fresh water lake. Take your boat out for a day of fishing or just chill next to the fire.&nbsp; Sites are approximately 50 feet from each other. If you want privacy we suggest you book both.&nbsp;

Shower House divided into 3 sections. Each section has two toilets, two sinks and two showers with hot and cold water. 

Dining hall that contains bathrooms and shower

Perfect place for sunset vows with golden light and fireflies, our pastoral setting among heritage farms makes for private and peaceful with a blank canvas to create your own vision under a star filled sky. Camping events with communal firepit, parking and our covered Pavilion, that seats up to 100 guests are the highlights.  Nearby are wineries, brewery based farmsteads and the lake shore to explore. 

8 miles to Lake Michigan Beech. 5 miles to 2 wineries and a cider house. 

30 years ago this land was used to pack and store onions and carrots.

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.

A stand of black locust trees is visible from the campsite.

Harvest the Good Farm

My family and I have lived here for 25 years. 
I grow hay and have a small orchard. 
At one point we were USDA certified organic and probably still meet the criteria. 
We like the country life and room for the animals to wander. 

Learn more about this land:

Private, Quiet, Open Vistas.  Site is out back on our property and sits between a rolling, lush hayfield and 4 acres of native wildflowers.  Dark night skies for stargazing.  No visible neighbors.

Our herd of 10 goats likes it when we get them out of their pen go for a walk.  They are very tame and like to be near people.

A proud little brown-eyed Susan in the pollinator habitat (Bee Sanctuary) which I seeded with 19 species of native wildflowers and grasses.

Fire ring at the campsite.  There is abundant deadwood available that I am happy to supply for you.

View is to the South.  Campsite is area in foreground up to the tall vegetation in the upper left.  Beyond that is a hay field and then my woods,
