Chad and I are long-time residents of Kalkaska County. We are also avid kayakers, runners, and overall nature enthusiasts. We are blessed with an amazing property on the North Branch of the Manistee River! It isn't the main branch of the Manistee River, BUT it flows right into it and offers so much more privacy, quietness, and peacefulness. With the 8 acres, it's perfect for glamping camping! The amazing bath house is complete and was thoroughly enjoyed this past season by many glampers!Do you love to camp but hate dragging everything with you for a weekend trip to northern Michigan? Want to fish a prime Blue Ribbon Trout Stream? Do you love being on the river and enjoy nature? Do you love all the essentials of home but don't want to have pay a fortune to enjoy the outdoors? It's the beautiful North Branch of the Manistee River that flows into the Manistee river where fishing, kayaking, canoeing, snowmobiling and snowshoeing is abundant and relaxation is always available! With your own private space that includes a real bed with warm blankets, outside fire pit, outside seating, grill, cooler, all kitchen necessities, towels, and numerous other amenities. All of this right on the banks of North Branch. Come enjoy the peace that is waiting for you! Welcome to the peace and rippling sounds of the North Branch of the Manistee River just outside your decked out glamping tent door! We now only have ONE site on premises, which means YOU will be the only one on site (occasionally owners will be on site - camper is parked on property of 8 acres). Please read reviews! There are TWO tents at this site that each contain a real full bed and two twin cots with pads - please read reviews! This is an amazing experience that will allow you to experience the outdoors with all the necessities of home! The real full bed is outfitted with warm bedding for the cool summer nights.   Each tent includes one full bed and two cots.  The site includes, pots and pans for cooking, paper and plastic ware, cooking utensils, glasses, percolator, towels, clean fresh sheets, cleaning supplies, gas grill, a grill for the campfire, a chimnea seating area, hammocks, and many other essentials! This site offers just about anything you would need for glamping/camping! For more than two guests we will offer two adults size cots outfitted with a sleeping cushion, pillows, and a sleeping bag.

This adventure will provide a fun filled glamping getaway where you can interact with nature up close, kayak the river, fish the stream, or any other outside activity, where you can end your day with a sit by the fire at night and a beautiful star filled sky from your bed at night!
