Wild Woods

Please come enjoy the nature sanctuary of Wild Woods. While we're less than 20 minutes from Petoskey, Alanson, Indian River, and Wolverine, the vibe out here is pure Upper Peninsula backcountry. This is an established homestead, and I'm continuing to grow and improve it. Explore my 10 acres of diverse habitats, or venture out onto the miles of trails that begin just a quarter mile down the road at the Wildwood Hills Pathway Trailhead. From there, you can hike, bike, ride, or drive for hours on maintained trails, seasonal roads, and ORV trails. You can even reach Weber Lake, most businesses in Wolverine, and Indian River without traveling on a main road—except to cross one. The trails are full of berries, mushrooms, and beautiful scenery. Be sure to check the state trail information before heading out. While some trails are designated for hiking, horseback riding, or dirt bikes only, most are open to off-road vehicles if you're feeling adventurous. I've been exploring them in my hybrid AWD Ford Maverick, and it's handled them just fine. Depending on your camping style, winter camping may also be an option for snowmobiling, cross-country skiing, or snowshoeing along the same trail system. I only ask that you respect the land, the animals, and the wildlife. Duck eggs may be available for purchase upon request, and I hope to offer more farm products in the future.

Full Bucket Farmstead

26mi from Fisherman's Island Campground · 4 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging

Over 7 acres of gentle sloping meadow with views of Lake Michigan, beside a growing family farm and homestead. Our gently sloped meadow and shady pine grove are perfect for campers seeking more private, quiet camping, and the Upper Room invites you indoors, while enjoying the outdoors. In the pine grove, a freestanding deck overlooks Lake Michigan, with views of Beaver Island and Great Lakes freighters. On clear nights you can glimpse beams from a handful of lighthouses. The pine trees offer shade and protection from weather without blocking the breeze (and the pine duff creates a spectacularly soft ground for sleeping on). Or set up your tent on the hillside--open your flap to Lake Michigan's famous sunsets, or face south to see a blanket of treetops. Near the barn, your RV has a flat spot to park at the base of the "Southern Slope" meadow full of wildflowers and monarch butterflies. For guests wanting more creature comforts, the Upper Room Glamp Apartment has all the amenities--television, queen bed, dry kitchenette, and access to the main house bathroom and shower. All options have access to fire rings and views of countless stars on a clear night. You'll be staying minutes from multiple beaches for swimming, boating, fishing, and rock-hunting. Our sites make a great HQ for day trips to Mackinac Island, Beaver Island, Mackinaw City, Petoskey, and Charlevoix, or a way-point on Fall Color Tours or drives up the Tunnel of Trees on M-119. The famous Legs Inn and Petoskey Brewing Company's 2nd location are only a mile away, Moose Jaw Junction is close, and one can walk to the Crow's Nest Restaurant. From here, it's only a short drive to downtown Harbor Springs for additional fine dining and shopping.

Hosting May - October. Earlier and later weather permitting. My husband Dan and I purchased this property 7 years ago and have totally restored the land, home and barn from its prior condition. We are mostly retired and live here with our two standard poodles Mila and Indiana. The property is 5 acres, mostly meadow with a maple grove as well as a wooded ravine. We have planted various fruit trees, cherries, apples, peach as well as pears. We also have a small grape and berry patch which is next to our vintage trailer. There is also an old abandoned trail through the forest that makes for a nice walk. Our location is convenient to Traverse City, Alden, Belaire, Kalkaska as well as the equestrian center and the casino in Williamsburg. There are various places to eat/drink within close proximity as well as places to purchase fuel, groceries and liquor. Old Mission and Leelanau peninsulas are a convenient drive where you can visit the many vineyards, orchards, shops and enjoy the beautiful vistas of the lake and bays, or shop some of the unique stores and galleries. There are many off road vehicle and bike trails that are not far away as well. As well as boating on beautiful Torch Lake and the chain of lakes. A day trip to Sleeping Bear dunes is well worth the drive. We would be happy to make suggestions on activities, dining, entertainment during your stay. We currently have three sites which are on seperate areas of the property. Lake View site is a Vintage 1985 Avion travel trailer which as been completely renovated with all new systems. It is located with a western view of Lake Skegemog and next to our grape and berry patch in our back yard. Maple Grove site is a new Coachmen Catalina Destination series RV. It is located on the front side of the property next to the maple tree grove. Lavender Lane is located in front of our barn with a view of our small orchard and the forest, close to the walking trail. All our sites are fully outfitted with quality linens, towels, dishes and cooking equipment. All of the units have Air Conditioned and heat. New this year is our chicken coop and run.
