Private sites

Rural property that once was a combination of a dairy farm and commercial woodland. It is rare in that it has a 40 acre field, a 5 acre island, a year round creek and over 2,000 feet of river frontage and nearly 40 acres of woods. Learn more about this land: There are over 80 acres of woods, fields and an island to explore. The property has over 2,000 feet of frontage on the Chippewa River. There is also a year around creek that flows through the property to the river. Currently there are three separate sites that are suitable for camping on the bank of the Chippewa. Each site is primitive and has lots of privacy. There are five trails that go through the woods as well as follow the bank of the river. There is a stairway that descends to the river. The river at this point is rather pristine. There are no houses on the camping side of the river and just a few on the opposite side. The river along the property is great for wading, swimming, canoeing/kayaking and fishing. There are over a dozen lakes within a 20 mile radius of the property. Less than 3 miles from the property there are snowmobile and four wheeling trails that connect to trails that extend over 300 miles. The property is less than 15 miles from the headquarters of the Ice Age Trail that stretches from near Superior to near Madison, Wisconsin.

Site 1 - Maggie's Merry Mirror
I definitely recommend this place and site #1 it's our 3rd time coming and never fails to disappoint! Hosts are incredibly kind and welcoming and over the top with keeping guests happy! I love that we don't have to pay for the fire wood there is plenty and plenty to go around! I also love that they keep extra fire wood under a tarp incase of rain so it stays dry. In the past we've used this tar to hang up when it was pouring rain out all day ...came in handy! It was very buggy that time and Dennis was sure to spray our site to decrease the flies and skeets. I do not mind the beautiful little 3 minute walk down to the river side camp site and our dogs get to be free and enjoy the trails and river as they want. I spent this third time here for my birthday with friends and Dennis and Kathleen are extremely accommodating for our friends as well! Such a beautiful property and I absolutely love coming here! Clean site and well furnished with seating and tables along with a steel grill topper for the camp fire to cook on. I will continue to come back here for future camp get away adventures! 1000% recommend!!! I've been to about 10 hipcamp sites and this is my FAVE!!!!

Site 2 - Maggie's Merry Mirror
A gorgeous place! We had site 2 booked but switched to site 1. The hosts were incredibly kind and welcoming. Our dogs loved the place and were able to comfortably explore off-leash the whole time. We were treated to a nighttime chorus of barred owls calling in every direction, and woke up facing a gorgeous sunrise over the river and the sounds of wild turkeys, sandhill cranes, pine warblers, and northern flickers. A hidden gem for birders. Would love to stay again!

Site 5 - Maggie's Merry Mirror
Dennis was an awesome host with a beautiful property. He covered our firewood (that he provided) before we got there because of the rain, just a stand up guy. We stayed at campsite 5 and definitely recommend for a bigger group, had an absolute blast here and we plan on being back!

Site 3 - Maggie's Merry Mirror
One of the best hosts I’ve camped with the sites are perfectly isolated, but comfortable with multiple trails in the area. Truly a great experience and one of the best price points I’ve seen rental wise

Beautiful property. The campsite was nicely maintained and set back in the property with a nice walk through the woods to get there. It felt very private. A short walk along the creek to the river was also a nice and unique part of the site. Our dogs got to play and enjoyed it very much.
