Private getaway
This was a nice private getaway. Our dogs loved the stream and it was cozy on the Stormy days. Really clean and plenty of room. It was nice being about 45 min away from Ludington and just over an hour to the sleeping bear dunes. I Just wish there was more fridge space. I definitely hope to come back some time.

Peace in the Firest
My kids had one of the trailers on the property and my dogs and I had the other. We met in the middle for bonfires, board games and grilling. We walked in the woods and explored the creek. We had beautiful weather and my dogs had a blast. They arent able to run around outdoors much where we live and it made me so happy to see them enjoying themselves. It is a beautiful place and gave me the wuality time and oeace that I needed.

Bitely, MI Weekend Away:
Hello, We booked two nights and only stayed one night. The pictures of the little play area next to the stream was misleading. The atmosphere was great and the camper was clean. Great location, but we have two young boys and they were looking forward to playing in the sand next to the stream.

If you’re looking for a retreat, this is it
Not only did we have perfect weather staying up here, the location was perfect. Hearing the critters throughout the morning had to be one of my favorite parts. Very private location for simple family getaways or romantic nights outdoors. I’m am already planning my fall stay. I can’t even imagine how the fall leaves will look.
