37mi from Vanderbilt · 4 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging · Harbor Springs, MI
Over 7 acres of gentle sloping meadow with views of Lake Michigan, beside a growing family farm and homestead. Our gently sloped meadow and shady pine grove are perfect for campers seeking more private, quiet camping, and the Upper Room invites you indoors, while enjoying the outdoors. In the pine grove, a freestanding deck overlooks Lake Michigan, with views of Beaver Island and Great Lakes freighters. On clear nights you can glimpse beams from a handful of lighthouses. The pine trees offer shade and protection from weather without blocking the breeze (and the pine duff creates a spectacularly soft ground for sleeping on). Or set up your tent on the hillside--open your flap to Lake Michigan's famous sunsets, or face south to see a blanket of treetops. Near the barn, your RV has a flat spot to park at the base of the "Southern Slope" meadow full of wildflowers and monarch butterflies. For guests wanting more creature comforts, the Upper Room Glamp Apartment has all the amenities--television, queen bed, dry kitchenette, and access to the main house bathroom and shower. All options have access to fire rings and views of countless stars on a clear night. You'll be staying minutes from multiple beaches for swimming, boating, fishing, and rock-hunting. Our sites make a great HQ for day trips to Mackinac Island, Beaver Island, Mackinaw City, Petoskey, and Charlevoix, or a way-point on Fall Color Tours or drives up the Tunnel of Trees on M-119. The famous Legs Inn and Petoskey Brewing Company's 2nd location are only a mile away, Moose Jaw Junction is close, and one can walk to the Crow's Nest Restaurant. From here, it's only a short drive to downtown Harbor Springs for additional fine dining and shopping. We are a young family of four, starting a family farm, and we are eager to share our homestead with you.

This peaceful, quiet homestead sits at the end of a dead-end road, bordered on both sides by the Black River and located close to the Atlanta State Forest and other recreational, hunting, and sporting areas in the region. At the campsite, you’ll find an appreciation for nature and the abundant wildlife that traverses the farm, along with dark skies, starry nights, and even the northern lights. It may remind you of your own family farm or your grandparents’ place up north. By becoming a guest on the property, you’re helping me accomplish my lifelong dream of restoring the old family homestead and preserving its history. Thank you for your visit — I encourage you to relax, breathe in the fresh air, and use the campsite as your launching point to explore everything this region has to offer.
