Brye's Bad Axe Ridgetop Camping
Great site!
This is a beautiful site that is spacious and private. There was some confusion about availability of firewood, but Lynn resolved it quickly and helpfully.
My son got sick so we were only able to stay long enough to cook dinner, but it was a great site. I would definitely come back again in the future.

Bad Axe Tent Camping 2
Peaceful Getaway
What a peaceful little nature getaway! I loved campsite #2. I checked out the other sites and they looked amazing as well. I loved being right next to the trout stream. Thexwater was cool, clear, and resfreshing and there were a lot of visible trout. We were able to forage some wild parsnips, mint, and watercress to go with dinner. My son loved collecting firewood from nature too. Lynn was extra helpful. The hike in and out was fun and added to our experience. We didn't realize how much extra stuff they were going to have at the site, but we were grateful for it all, especially the shovel, the axe, the potable water, and the wash bin. We will definitely go back again.

Bad Axe Tent Camping
Just what I needed.
Cory and Lynn's valley is beautiful! I loved listening to the babbling brook and watching the birds. I was greeted by a hummingbird the minute I got out of my van. It rained the first night we were there, so I was very thankful for the large tarp. I was able to set my backpacking tent, two of the provided chairs and a table under the tarp and just relax and listen to the pitter-patter of the rain. We walked the valley and napped in the hammock. I a restorative weekend.

Brye's Bad Axe Ridgetop Camping
The site is at the end of a dead end road and felt very private, though there is a nearby house that seems like it may be a seasonal residence with a sign that dogs/kids may be playing. The camp itself is between a lot of mowed grass and an ag field, which was perfect for our dogs to run around safely but doesn't necessarily feel like you're "in nature" if that is your goal. The trail down to the creek was steep and a bit trecherous after the rain (muddy!) and leads down to a faster moving/rocky section which made us a tad bit nervous since our dogs could have gotten hurt if they jumped in, but further upstream it was calmer. If the goal of your trip is to be by water, I'd advise going for one of the streamside campsites instead of the ridgetop since the climb is a bit limiting- but if you're going for privacy, a view of the stars, and a more open environment for games for dogs/kids to play, the ridgetop was nice!

Brye's Bad Axe Ridgetop Camping
We love tent camping at this beautiful site. It was nice and secluded and not so far out that we couldn't go to town for some shopping. The river was a steep hike down but so beautiful and relaxing with a little space to set a few chairs while enjoying the sounds of the river. Both child and dog approved.
