5 private acres on the Betsie River. 3 miles to Crystal Mountain. You can walk through the woods to get to the river. Fish from shore or find several spots to get into the river to fish. Close to Iron Fish Distillery. 20 minutes to many Lake Michigan beaches. There is a flat yard for tents and a gravel pad for an RV. 30 amp electrical hookup and water spigot available. You have the spot to yourself. You can see a family cottage through the woods, but it is about 80 yds away.Wooded land is bordering the Betsie River. Secluded private road. You do have to walk down a hill and through the woods to get to the river.

Beautiful Campsite in the Woods
Our family had a great time camping on Randy’s land. It is a beautiful spot in the woods. There is plenty to do in the area. It’s also a great place to hangout at camp. The stars are amazing at night. We appreciated the electric and water hookups as well as the picnic table and grill for the fire pit. We will definitely be back!

Lovely and Secluded
It’s a wonderful place for privacy, which seems to be hard to find. Nice large grassy area with some shade. Randy was very helpful and quick to respond. We will definitely be coming back!

Camping on Randy's land was great. Perfect for our family. Was private and well kept. He even had some amenities like a cooking crate, picnic table, patio table and chairs, out house and water and electric hook up. Very nice land, had a wonderful time.

We recently stayed 4 days at Randy’s camp site. One of the standout features is the incredible level of privacy. The campsite is spacious, isolated and surrounded by woods. We were particularly impressed with how quiet the site was. The campsite is equipped with a private fire pit, grate to bque on, outdoor patio set and picnic table all of which were well-maintained, clean, and thoughtfully designed. Randy clearly put a lot of care into creating a space that feels inviting, comfortable while maintaining a rustic charm. There are many lakes around this Area and only about 45 minutes from the Sleeping Bear Dunes. We definitely will be back!

Best site we stayed at all week! The area was very well kept, secluded, lots of room, close to the river, firewood available for purchase on site, etc. I could go on. Highly recommend!

Fantastic will be back!
We stayed with our camper and couldn’t have been happier. The site is gorgeous, spacious private and it’s a nice short walk down to the betsie river. A lot of excellent fishing opportunities nearby. This was our first time using Hipcamp and we will DEFINITELY be staying at this site again. Thank you thank you to the wonderful host
