Gearing up for our 5th season as the new owners of The Sportsman's Port. We have made many updates and will continue to do so. We take pride in a clean bath house, and want everyone to have a great time at our campground. Sometimes it's crazy booked up and other times it may just be you. Feel free to ask any questions you may have and we will answer them as soon as we can. We look forward to meeting lots of new faces and hopefully starting family traditions for you and yours. We have spacious sites that are all different shapes and sizes. Depending on the site it may have 20/30/50 amp service depending on the site. There are currently only three that have 50 amp service. Also some sites have a septic hookup. Water fill station is located near the bathhouse. There is a private dump station also available for use just ask.

The 40 Acre Wood

5 sites · Lodging40 acres · Shelby, MI
www.facebook.com/the40acrewood Before our forest was "owned," it belonged to the Odawa people. Once white settlers arrived and governments were established, land deeds were written. We traced those deeds back through the Oceana County Register of Deeds and found that larger tracts of land were owned by people from Chicago and California, which were later divided into smaller parcels. Interestingly, one owner lost the property after failing to pay back taxes of $3.50, shortly after World War II. It is likely that he never returned. In the mid-1900s, Ed Dewey was the owner. Today, we have a cabin on the east side of the 40 acres that was built by Ed, entirely constructed with oak. He had three sawmills there, each powered by the engines of old Studebakers. He cut and milled enormous oak trees, using the wood to construct crates for transporting cherries. Today, you can still see old oak crates on various farms, but they are slowly being replaced by plastic. Ed never finished the little cabin, and the story goes that he died there. The next owners were a couple from Inkster, near Detroit. Despite Ed leaving an acre of "yard art" all over, the place was used as a vacation home after a 50-foot long mobile home was placed near the cabin. As they aged, they sold off their property to us. First, we acquired the 20 acres where the Cozy Camper Cabin resides, then the 7 acres near Weaver Road and 44th, and finally, the remaining 13 acres with the cabin. We began purchasing the property in parcels in 1992 for $500 an acre and owned it all by 1998. From 1998 to 2008, we removed the mobile home, cleaned up all the yard art, refurbished the cabin, added a garage, and built a new shed nearby. The Hipcamp shed was originally built in 1999 and has been used for storage until it was converted into a unique little place in the woods in 2021. Over the years, our Forester has carefully managed the property. We have logged three times. The first round was to remove 75 huge oak trees. The second round involved culling mature poplar trees. The last time, we took out 276 mature oaks and beeches. A Woodsman spent a year cutting down the tops of the trees. Clearing these old growth trees revitalized the forest, as planned. Today, there are over two miles of trails running throughout the property. Some were logging roads, while others were carved out over time. The land is flat to the north but hilly to the south, as these are forested sand dunes. There are approximately a million trees on the property, densely forested with many large "mother trees" such as oaks, beeches, maples, and pines. The poplar trees are growing rapidly, as they do. Wild cherry, sassafras, beeches, oaks, and maples are also growing quickly and thickly. To the south, there are fenced-in asparagus fields and cherry orchards. To the north, on the other side of Weaver Road, is the privately owned Silver Lake Airport, which remains quiet most of the time. On the east side of our 40 acres, you'll find our cabin and buildings, and we kindly ask you to avoid wandering onto that side of the property. Signs will alert you when you get close. To the west, there is a 20-acre section occasionally occupied by some "Dunners." The area is famous for Silver Lake State Park and the sand dunes, located about 2.5 miles northwest of us. Our neighbors in that area have dune buggies, and they sometimes drive around their property, creating more noise than we prefer. It's possible that you may encounter this during your visit, so please be aware. Deer are abundant in the area, and in 2021, we spotted a porcupine for the first time, although we have occasionally seen evidence of their presence through bark-stripped maples. Raccoons come and go, while turkeys are frequent visitors at times. You can hear coyotes yipping away at night, and depending on the time of year and migratory season, you'll see lots and lots of birds. We're pleased to report that there is no poison ivy on the property! It is a beautiful place in the woods, not far from many entertaining activities suitable for both the young and old. Come and visit, but please be respectful of the land and our privacy while enjoying yours. Love Mother Earth while you are here and nourish your soul.

Rustic, Simple Basecamp

1 site · RV, Tent10 acres · Crystal Mountain, MI
Another Place consists of one rustic campsite suitable for 4 or less people (e.g. 3 or fewer tents, or one small pop-up camper). It is an extremely private, quiet, and peaceful place to serve as basecamp for your area adventures. The land is a mix of open/small pines, and then part of a maple forest that we share with the neighbor. There are light hills if you choose to explore the property, with a view of Crystal Mountain at the rear of the property (just stay on the trails!) This campsite has a firepit, picnic table, and newly constructed outhouse with a changing/or showering area. There is no water or electricity on the property, but some potable 5L jugs will be filled and provided for you. Other than that, please treat this as if you're rustic camping, and bring everything you need to be comfortable (water, food, trash bags, power banks, etc); this includes removing all trash and taking everything with you when you leave (please, leave no trace!) Another Place is just 2 miles from the Betsie River, exactly 5 miles from Iron Fish Distillery, 2 miles from Crystal Mountain and the sculpture park, a short 15-minute drive to many destinations along Lake Michigan, including the towns of Elberta, Frankfort, Arcadia, and Beulah (Crystal Lake). A 30-minute drive will get you into Leelanau Peninsula for wine-tasting, and a 45-minute drive will get you to Traverse City for endless adventures. There's truly no end to activities in this area.

Pine River Glamping Retreat

1 site · Lodging26 acres · Wellston, MI
The glamping tent is located in an existing campground at the Pine River Paddlesports Center. The campground itself is on 26 acres - the sites are all hedged around on 3 sites with woods and are generously spaced out from one another. It is a clean and quiet campground - you shouldn't be able to hear your neighbors, and they shouldn't be able to hear you. The tent does have electricity - there is one power strip that is enough to power a fan (provided in the tent!), and to charge phones. There is a queen-sized bed, but please bring your own bedding. Inside the tent is also a 'coffee nook' - complete with a one-burner propane stove, tea kettle, pour-over coffee system, and water pitcher. Potable water is available at the tent site (there is a water spigot outside). Outside of the tent there is a fire pit with an adjustable grate for cooking, a picnic table, and a locking trash can that we change daily for you. Our bathroom building is a short walk from the glamping tent. It is a modern restroom with a men's and a women's side, complete with hot, running water, flush toilets, and coin-operated showers. We are located in the Manistee National Forest. Our campground borders the National Forest. On site, there is a beautiful 1/4 mile deer trail walk through the National Forest that leads to a great overlook of the Pine River. Also on site is a frisbee golf course that is free to campers.

The best camping near Orchard Beach State Park guide

Overview

About

Perched on a bluff in the city of Manistee, Orchard Beach State Park serves up killer views of Lake Michigan. From there, you can run down to the beach for a swim, hit the trails or stroll into town: A historic lumbering spot boasting preserved Victorian architecture that now offers trolley tours and shopping, Manistee oozes local charm. Boat launching is available, and fall fishing for salmon and coho is a sensation. If you’re more into paddlesports or metal detecting, that’s cool, too. With modern camping and lodging, Orchard Beach State Park is a comfortable, unique location for enjoying coastal Northern Michigan. And that’s no bluff!

When to go

The ideal time to visit Orchard Beach State Park is during the summer months, from June to August, when the weather is warm and the lake is inviting. Fall also offers a spectacular display of changing leaves. Winters can be harsh with heavy snowfall, making some areas inaccessible.

Know before you go

  • Check the weather forecast before your visit to pack appropriately for Michigan's variable climate.
  • Ensure you have a Recreation Passport for park entry; it's required for all vehicles.
  • Trail maps are available online; download one to plan your hikes in advance.
  • For safety, always stay on designated trails and be aware of local wildlife.
  • Facilities like restrooms and picnic areas are available, but it's wise to bring essentials like water and snacks.
