The perfect solo spot that had the cutest little trail back to a private site. Loved the camp toilet and wagon, it made everything so easy! Will be back 💕

Campground was a cozy getaway. Very quiet and convenient with accommodations like firewood and toiletries. Our host was friendly, helpful and communicative. Easily made for a relaxing stay.

Elizabeth is very responsive and a great host. The site is super secluded with lots of trees for shade and wide enough to set up multiple tents.

The site was private, but near to the house if anything was needed. It was a slightly longer walk than anticipated after a long day, but manageable and there was a wagon to help transport your things

A lovely experience! It was a spot covered by trees and when it rained overnight, barely anything was wet the next morning. The walk from the parking spot to the camping spot felt shorter than it looked on the map and was so green to walk into. Appreciate having firewood available on site!

We had a great time on Elizabeth's land. It was beautiful and secluded. Our pup loved it and we loved it. Not close to major highways, so it's pretty quiet at night. Would recommend for a getaway in the woods.

Campsite was a bit further than expected, maybe a bit over a quarter mile, but was very personal and quiet. Good amenities and sheltered within the woods.

This is a very great place if you want a more "roughing it" experience.
The couple who runs it were really great down to earth people. It's awesome that they are willing to share their Beautiful forest with people. It's a quarter mile walk which is not that bad especially if you travel light. I have a heart condition and a pacemaker and we have a 5yr old and had no problems. Returning to your vehicle is mostly uphill so plan your trips. The forest was great and alive at night. I was very surprised that mosquitoes were not horrible. We had family natural care repellent and BBW eucalyptus spearmint lotion and fine. The ONLY thing to watch out for is if you are highly sensitive to poison ivy. There was alot all over the northwest part of the land and around the camp site. We kept our shoes outside the tent and had no issues.
I hope to come back soon. It was a very quiet and peaceful place. So glad they are willing to share there little treasure with others.

I ended up getting to the campsite really late and it was pitch dark after doing some extra hiking earlier in the day. The directions given were perfect and a motion detector light at the trailhead was really helpful. I was the only one camping that night in the big clearing. It was a nice set up, especially as someone used to backcountry camping.

The campsite was incredibly private, large, and clean! If you are confused about the toilet situation, there is a little pop up tent with a portable toilet and some sanitary stuff in there. The hosts were super friendly and had some great suggestions for where we should go for the day. They also had some friendly dogs in addition to the horses and donkey. The site is about a 20 min drive away from a really cute touristy town on Lake Michigan for a nice day at the beach. We also went during berry season, and there was a pick you own farm really close by with some local goods to buy as well. First experience with Hipcamp and I had an amazing time at Elizabeth's place!

Our stay was great! It’s a nice little campsite tucked away just a short walk into the woods. The host family was kind and friendly, thanks for a great stay.

Loved camping here! Lots of fire flies and even heard an owl!
Fire pit is nice as is seating. Perfect ground for tent camping :) close to several sets of dunes. Host was friendly and helpful.
(Horses and chickens where also pretty and fun to see)

Overall, it's a great site, and it is very private. That said, some aspects of the trip could have been more clearly communicated and managed. Specifically, we looked for a site that had a picnic table available which was what the post said: I believe it said "available upon request" which we requested when we were about to arrive to only be notified that one was not available. A portable toilet was made available and we were grateful for it, but we were then expected to take the waste with us when checking out. To be fair, the host did offer to take this out, and she did, after telling her that our car was tightly packed. It would have been nice to set this as an expectation from the very beginning. We always expect to take out food and other miscellaneous waste, but not specifically toilet waste unless explicitly mentioned. Lastly, while some poison ivy is to be expected in a rural campsite, it was very abundant near the trails and campsite- there was actually some growing on the perimeter of the fire pit. I did not experience any symptoms from this, but my partner did end up with a rash after the trip. I think this site has a lot of potential, and the host was very nice to us overall.

We had such a a great experience. Elizabeth was very kind and helpful. The campsite was very private and tucked in the woods. An easy 20 minute drive from Warren dunes State Park.

Overall we had a great experience. The site was nice, secluded. Owner was friendly and provided a sturdy wagon for easy unloading.
Owner does have horses but once you make it halfway down the trail you won’t smell them.
My only gripe was regarding the “portable toilet”. Maybe it’s my fault for thinking it but I was expecting an outhouse or port a potty. We were fairly shocked to find a bucket with a bin of hygienic products. It is technically a portable toilet though.

Overall very great experience! Would definitely come back, the host is very helpful and kind. They do help bring your belongings to the site and the walk to the site is not bad at all!! They did also provide a toilet & some toiletry. There are horse you see walking to the site & a donkey! Very secluded site and great shaded area. The fire pit was lovely as well. Would highly recommend!!

We spent one night on Elizabeth's land. They were there when we arrived to help transport our stuff to the campsite in their 4-wheeler and helped us bring our stuff back the next day too. The land was beautiful and the people were amazing as well. The horses on the property were cute, calm and housed outside of ear shot from the campsite. 10/10 would camp again!

What a great great host and a camping experience. The location was very clean and comfortable. Plenty of privacy, but so close to the car only a third of a mile walk wasn’t bad at all. We also enjoyed many of the local activities and had a great time. Plan on making another trip back soon..

Had a lovely overnight camp tucked away at this hidden gem. Hosts we're super friendly, easy to communicate with and amazingly accommodating. The site is located approx 1/4 mile from where you park, nestled near the back of their gorgeous property. Very peaceful and quiet evening. 10/10 would recommend.
