My boys and I camped at site 1 while exploring the peninsula. It was nearly perfect. We had privacy, easy access to everything and even met a new friend, Hudson! Both my boy LOVED Hidson and wanted to take him home. Was a great stay! Thank you

This was such a nice spot to camp. One of the best and most accommodating Hipcamps I've ever been to. Stayed here the night before getting a ferry in Copper Harbor to Isle Royale. Beautiful! Well kept. Great hosts.

This was our first trip to Michigan, and we couldn't have picked a better place to stay! The campsite was peaceful, private, and thoughtfully set up, with a nice mix of sun and shade, a picnic table, a fire ring (no grate), and beautiful sunset views. The potable water was convenient, and the outhouse was the cleanest we've ever used—it looked brand new! Evan was a wonderful host, greeting us when we arrived, showing us around the property, and then giving us complete privacy for the rest of our stay. We loved spotting fireflies, hawk moths, and chipmunks around camp, and the friendly dog was a sweet bonus. The site is also just about 10 minutes from town and close to a beautiful beach. We had such a wonderful long weekend and would highly recommend staying here!

Spectacular! Can't wait to return. Sites 1-3 are in a tent-only sanctuary by the water, a ~1 min walk from parking. In early July there were no annoying daytime bugs, minimal (for the UP) mosquitoes at night, and no biting flies! Upon arrival, Evan was quite welcoming, & after a brief tour we had that area of the property to ourselves. The new bathroom has fantastic views of the sunrise & smells only of fresh lumber. The location also makes for great day trips to Horseshoe Harbor, Bete Grise, Brunette Park, & other natural gems in the Keweenaw.

We had an awesome stay. The location was beautiful, clean and perfectly suitable for us tenters. It’s also very central if you intend to visit houghton and anything north of there. The lake, and the sounds of birds and frogs was particularly wonderful. The host was kind and professional. My wife and I are excited to stay there again.

Great place, had it to my self most of the week. Good location for exploring the Keweenaw. Nice views. Sites 1-3 are on a pound. Each site has an increasing view of the pound as you go from 1 to 3. 2 and 3 are walk in sites, I was in 1. Evan is a great host.

Site #4 was amazing. Away from everything, quiet, clean and beautiful. Evan was an excellent host super helpful and hospitable. We were thankful to find such an excellent property and host to stay with. We heard wolves, coyotes, and owls. The night sky was amazing. We'll definitely return. We had an F250 and a 11ft trailer and had no issues whatsoever navigating the campsite.

Grateful to Evan for sharing land on his picturesque homestead with us! We spent 2 days exploring the Keweenaw Peninsula and this was an ideal home base. We would definitely stay again.

Really neat property. Evan met us when we arrived and rode a utv to where we needed to park. The cows chased us as we went passed their fence, because every animal loves my girlfriend, probably because they thought Evan was going to feed them. 🤣 The site are well designed. 3 had a great view of the good sized pond he has on his property. The location is ideal for people that are interested in rock hunting. 30 minutes from gratiot park. 10 minutes from Calumet waterworks park. 10 minutes from McClain state park.

We loved camping on Evan's land! His land is private and tucked back by a lake. We were greeted by a wild turkey when we arrived at our campsite which was really cool. Campsites were set up really nice with a fire ring and picnic table. He also has an out house and running water from a well for guests. Tent sites have plenty of room but parking might be an issue depending on site. We really enjoyed our stay!

Excellent host. Nice spot. Young trees and shrubs at the campsite. If you need to hang a hammock or tarp it's not possible. Otherwise it's a great place to camp. I definitely recommend it.

This is a beautiful piece of property and our site was perfect in every way! We stayed at site 4 with our Off Grid Trailer for 4 nights. The site was spacious , very secluded and private and even though we had a a fair amount of rain one night it drained extremely well. Loved the two and cows in the pasture next to our site and to our surprise there was even some apple trees on our site that were in season that we were allowed to indulge in! Thanks Evan! The outhouse that is available for guests to use was very clean. The hosts were polite, courteous and respected our privacy during our stay. Thanks Evan for being a great host and we will definitely book this location again if we are ever back in Michigan!

This homestead is beautiful! We are greeted by 2 cows. The brown faced steer kept staring at me (got a little self conscious) and they are adorable, but don’t pet. The site is private and quiet. Evan is a gracious host and helped us find our way to the site. Easy access to all the sites. The outhouse is very clean! In a clear night you can see all the stars. Would definitely recommend and stay here again! Thank you for sharing.
