Summary AI-generated from real reviews
We have stayed at this site several times and it never disappoints! It is clean, well kept, and so peaceful. We look forward to camping here several times a year when possible!! :)
Our third year here. Full hook up with a rustic feel. Fire pit by the river, listening to the water and the night noises is the best.
Great weekend with friends and the hosts are nice, efficient, and easy to work with!
Wonderful weekend tent camping, spent with our two dogs! The river was so peaceful (just watch the rocks with fur-kids paws). Ultimately felt secluded and would definitely come back! The host was very responsive and kind.

We had an AWESOME time. The weather held till the end and we enjoyed cooking, swimming and spending some very peaceful days down by the river. The skeeters were almost non-existent. We love this site. And would recommend it to anyone. Our thanks to Megan for being an excellent hostess.
Great site! Very peaceful and a wonderful view of river. Good fishing and water fun.
This was such a beautiful site! The pictures of the camping area does not give it justice. It’s so spacious and very open!
The ambience with the lights at night.. the soothing sounds of the river.. LOVE!! The dogs couldn’t have enjoyed it more either. Our golden had a morning swim as soon as we opened the tent! Definitely coming back again.

The site was lovely, very close to the river, and quiet and secluded. It was peaceful and serene, and just what we needed for the short time we were there. I caught my first Michigan smallmouth bass right there. We saw several deer, and tons of birds.
Also, our dogs loved being off-leash! They're well behaved dogs, but at regular campgrounds, even good dogs have to be on leash at all times.

I am so happy to have such a wonderful place to camp close to home. Only an hour away. Megan is so helpful and very happy to answer questions. We rented kayaks this stay. My daughter went with me. What a blast. Love our river floats. Bonfires amazing. I think what I love so much is that we have such a large area and private. So close to nature and birds. I think I’ve got a place forever 😊

This spot is great and we would recommend it to anyone looking to get away, but not too far away.
The camp area was clean and mowed and the quick walk down to the river site was perfect. Worth the trip and the reasonable cost. Bringing kayaks would have been the way to get the most out of this location. Very cool!
The area was so beautiful! I loved being right at the river and getting to watch all of the different creatures! Being surrounded by nature was such a huge plus!

Huge site, proximity to river is nice. Megan was very helpful and accommodating. Plenty of sun and shade. Proximity to the road was a little off-putting, but there’s very little traffic, and plenty of space to hang out well away from the unpaved road.

As a host, we appreciated Megan’s communication and flexibility. The campsite itself was well kept. The space directly adjacent to the river was idyllic with a picnic table, a fire pit, maybe even space for a smaller tent. The sound of the rippling water was so peaceful. The river was shallow and quite rocky along the campsite. We kayaked and had a great time.
The area with the parking pad was very spacious and provided opportunities for shade throughout the day. It was closer to the road than expected, but there weren’t many passing cars during our stay.
We took a short walk to the Sherman City Cemetery. There was also a historic church within walking distance (viewable from the outside only).
Definitely recommend for a short getaway or group camping trip.

We absolutely loved tent camping here! The campsite is right next to the river, making it incredibly peaceful, secluded, and quiet. It truly feels like a hidden gem. We couldn't recommend this spot enough and will definitely be coming back. The host was also fantastic—friendly, welcoming, and great to communicate with. We can't wait for our next visit!

Such a beautiful and relaxing place to get away. We stayed 2 nights and it was incredibly peaceful. The hill down to the river side area is VERY steep and it is a bit of a hike. We managed to get all of our gear down there with a wagon and several trips, as we wanted to stay by the water. We went in the river and caught a bunch of fish! Megan was very helpful when I couldn’t find the site. And even checked on us during our stay. I pre ordered 10 bundles of firewood and it was plenty for 2 nights. Walked away with 1 mosquito bite (we used thermacells). Looking forward to trying some of the other sites Megan has to offer! Thank you for sharing your place with us!

We were on the trailer. Was very easy to get in. Property was very nice well kept up. We enjoyed how peaceful & quiet it was. Was nice not having to keep my dog on a leash, he enjoyed just running around. Sitting by the river was great. The rock made it hard to walk around it . But we ha a great time, would go back again. Thank you for a great week.

We spent the 4th of July weekend at Whispering Waters and couldn't have been happier with our stay. The property is exceptionally clean, well maintained, and the lawn is nicely kept. It feels private and peaceful, making it a great place to unwind.
The river is the highlight. Sitting down by the water and listening to the gentle sound of the current is incredibly relaxing and was one of our favorite parts of the weekend.
We were a little concerned about mosquitoes and bugs since it was early July, but we were pleasantly surprised. There were very few mosquitoes, and the overall bug population was much better than we expected for this time of year.
If you're bringing a dog, they'll think they've found paradise! Our dog Charlie claimed the place as his kingdom and had the time of his life exploring, relaxing, and watching over "his" campsite.
Megan is a fantastic host. She was quick to respond, helpful with any questions we had, and made sure everything went smoothly. It's obvious she takes pride in the property and wants her guests to have a great stay.
We left already talking about coming back. Whispering Waters is a hidden gem, and we highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet, relaxing camping getaway.

Perfect site right on the Chippewa River! We kayaked, swam in, and fished the river. It was very relaxing having a fire pit right on the water’s edge. Megan and Adam were very kind and helpful! The only down side was the neighbor’s barking hound dogs. They were barking about 50% of the time we were there. There was nothing the hosts could do about it so no fault of theirs. I didn’t see any other reviews with this complaint, so maybe it was a fluke? Regardless, wouldn’t sway us from booking here again. Thank you for a wonderful time!
This site was incredible! We had a beautiful time along the river and really felt like we were in a private oasis.
Megan was very curtious and communicative- excellent host. Would recommend this site to any camper looking for a river stay in mid michigan.

The site was amazing. We loved the quiet location and entire layout. The river access was well kept and beautiful. The hookups and upper camping area were also clean and comfortable. The hostess stopped by to check on us and all was well. Our two large dogs also loved the site and it was great to have a place we could share a bit of freedom with them

My husband and I loved tent camping on the Riverwalk site! Very private and serene. The site is only a short walk from the parking area. Also saw a plethora of wildlife during our stay. We appreciated how well kept the grass was and had no mosquitos or ticks the entire time.
"Megan is an exceptional host, and her property is the ultimate destination to unplug and unwind. As a busy family of five, this has become our annual tradition and one of our absolute favorite places to disconnect, get the kids outdoors, and enjoy some much-needed R&R. I cannot recommend this beautiful property enough!"

How private it was. Loved the surroundings. The walk to the river was amazing. Loved the lights at night. Definitely a place I’ll be going back to again.
We loved our stay at Whispering Waters. The site is beautiful, clean and spacious. River access was great, although you need to be in somewhat decent shape to get in and out of of the water due to current and rocks. It was no issue for us!
Megan and her husband were great hosts, will visit again!
