"It seems to me that the natural world is the greatest source of excitement; the greatest source of visual beauty; the greatest source of intellectual interest. It is the greatest source of so much in life that it makes life worth living." David AttenboroughWe've been about a greener lifestyle for decades--before green was "popular," before building tiny houses was the "trend," and before living a freer life off-the-grid was "a thing". Our mission is to provide an environmentally sustainable getaway where you will encounter off-the-grid living first hand for that unique experience. In the beautiful backdrop of the Keweenaw Peninsula of Upper Michigan (U.P.), we've built a sustainable, off-grid retreat where you can design your own personal EcoXtreme adventure. Enjoy this back-country timber- frame haven among a forest of birch and pine, next to the magical flow of the Montreal River, and surrounded by a cornucopia of recreational offerings. Extreme skiing, mountain biking, kayaking, sailing, surfing, and scuba are just a few of the exploits available.

Lots of hiking and waterfalls within the area. Short distance to fuel, food, town. Ryan and his Father were great hosts.

We had a wonderful stay at Ryan’s glamping site! The tent was spacious and felt cozy, with the lighting providing ambiance and even throw pillows and blankets for an extra touch of warmth. We enjoyed falling asleep to the sound of rain falling on the tent, while remaining dry inside. The site was easy to find and we were greeted upon arrival. It was the perfect place to stay while we spent the weekend immersed in nature, exploring the Keweenaw Peninsula. We are already planning to go back next year!

My husband and I are expecting our first baby in December and this was the perfect spot to get away and find stillness within all the excitement 🥲 we love to camp and backpack but being pregnant this was the perfect in between of comfort and rustic backcountry vibes! We loved the sense of adventure and truly felt at home in this space. It was really fun to learn about the off grid / sustainable practices that make this place unique and fun to explore. This off grid cabin/land had such nourishing ambiance and character there was always something unique to notice within all the tiny details Linda and Darryl put into it or from others that were left behind. We enjoying slow mornings reading journal entries from past visits over slow brewed coffee, walking the land, fishing in the river and playing games over a home cooked meal! The cabin was located perfectly on the peninsula we were able to explore copper harbor and close enough to houghton hancock if we needed anything. This is definitely a trip we will always remember and can’t wait to make it back with our little guy sooner than later! Many continued blessings to everyone who gets to experience this GEM in Gods Land 🌲

Very nice and quaint cabin! It’s a great launching point for adventures around the peninsula. The sauna is great paired with a run down to the stream. They have everything you need to really relax and enjoy yourself.

What a great cabin! Easy to find and had everything we could have asked for! The place is just lovely- we loved all the reclaimed touches and nature elements- you can see how much love has been put into this place. We are so grateful Linda and Darryl have chosen to share this gem here.

We would definitely stay here again! The camper was great. It was well stocked with everything you need for a stay and the beds were comfortable (they had a soft memory foam topper on the mattress that I loved). Having a recliner was also great as well. The camper had A/C for hot days and space heaters for cool nights. It had a coffee maker, blender, fridge, freezer (that all worked well). We also had warm water for a comfortable shower. It was our first time staying in a camper and Alyssa was very responsive/helpful with any questions. The area seemed really safe and the location is great to many different destinations. It is located just off a major road (convenient) but not many cars drive by (pretty quiet). It's about 30 minutes to the east end of the Porkies, 45 minutes to Agate Beach, and an hour to Houghton. There are good and inexpensive food options locally on Ontonagon that stay open late after a day of adventure. Due to previous campers not cleaning up well, they now charge a modest cleaning fee but it was nice to just do and light clean and go upon checkout instead of a deep clean. If you are looking for great option in the Ontonogan region, this is the place.

We enjoyed ourselves in the glamping tent on Ryan’s land. The location is perfect if you’re looking to explore the Keweenaw Peninsula! Our host was responsive and gave clear directions to the site. We were looking for a rustic, quiet, serene place to enjoy each other and nature, this fit the bill! We appreciated the comfortable bed, tasteful decor and unexpected touches like Wi-Fi, dishes & storage for our things.

Absolutely awesome! Sleeping quarters are all up in the loft. Totally private. It was rainy part of the time we were there and it is so blissful with the raindrops on the tin roof. Thank you for sharing this unique getaway.

We loved using this space as our base camp for exploring the Keweenaw Peninsula! It had everything we needed for cooking breakfasts before a big day out and dinners after we returned. The loft for sleeping was cozy and comfortable. Our dog was incredibly stoked to be able to run around the cabin each morning and we felt safe at the location. We were lucky enough to meet Linda on our way out and she was so kind and thoughtful. We would love to stay here again!

Loved the drive out there and the view really is something special out here. Definitely bring long sleeves and bug dope though. Very cool setup and my only suggestion might be bringing your own solar shower if you require a rinse besides what the local river can provide.

This cabin is the cutest thing. It had everything you could need and more in stock. It was so charming and comfy. The kids loved the loft and the river nearby. It’s a hike but it is a beautiful walk across the river and up to the cabin. They lay out the directions very clearly. It is all the right balance of adventure while keeping needs met. They were very kind and communicative. The only regret we have is bringing a lot of stuff we didn’t realize would be well supplied. We will definitely be back!

Getting to the location was easy. The tent provided us a lovely nature escape. The bird sounds in the morning was a great way to wake up. The lake was a close by and provided the perfect way to cool off.
