Stunning Northern Michigan wildlife with creeks and an old natural beaver pond, what a wonderful place to relax, and soak in the surroundings. Step out of the hectic stress of the everyday and take a moment at one of the many areas to soak up what you have disconnected from. Feel the wind across your skin, the Earth beneath your feet and the Sun shining down. Hear the birds singing, the trees swaying in the wind and what animal was that? See the deer frolicking, birds flying, trees growing and how nature all comes together. Smell the Earth, the Pine from the trees and the wild flowers. Take some time and wonder, lose yourself in Nature and get refreshed. Natural Rustic Camping, wake up to a beautiful sunrise, listen to the birds singing away, with the chance of seeing any of Northern Michigan’s awesome wildlife. Sunsets are spectacular with so many different colors, and on a Clear night look up at the stars without the lights of a big city.The House of Bear is located on a spectacular 97-acre, fourth generation working Tree farm in Northern Michigan’s Grand Traverse County.

The House of Bear

Bear was awesome and if you’re into rustic camping, this property was it! We chose the campsite that was overlooking the creek and it was so peaceful. Bear welcomed us with water and ice cream sandwiches and truly made us feel welcome. We will definitely be back!

The House of Bear

We loved camping at The House of Bear!! Directions were easy to follow and Bear was a gracious host telling us about the lay of the land and different recommendations in the area. The campsites were well maintained and the portapotties close by. The stars at night were beautiful and we saw so many birds, bunnies, and deer! The perfect spot close to Traverse City and Sleeping Bear Dunes!

The House of Bear

Great place to camp with dogs.

This weekend was my first time using Hipcamp. I’m not a big fan of campsites too many people, and not much relaxing. Me and my two dogs are always trying to find a nice spot to just relax and let them be off leash. Bears property did not disappoint. Camping here was great! There are several camp spots you can choose from with a good distance apart to make you feel like you are out there all by yourself. Host was very welcoming, willing to help if need be, and it was definitely a pleasure to meet them. Definitely would recommend.
