Karen the host was amazing, helped us with all we had asked for. The kids enjoyed fishing the river and the kayaks trip, just across the road off the camping site, was amazing - beautiful nature and pretty relaxing experience. Highly recommended!

This was a very peaceful stay away from the bustle of Petoskey, but only a petoskey stone’s throw away (haha). We launched our little kayaks from our site and enjoyed our surrounds! Thanks for an easy stay!

Beautiful spot on the river

Our campsite was a beautiful spot right next to the Bear River. The host, Karen, was very friendly and let us know where we could access amenities like the bath house, water, and coffee/tea bar. The bath house is very swanky! Love how it is decorated, and it was very clean. Thank you for a great stay!

A gem for campers

We really enjoyed the camping spot at the property. for a place that was basic camping, not having electric hookup it was kept very nice and had a beautiful showerhouse/ bathroom to use. We had a great time using it as a home base as we went on our fishing excursions. The host was wonderful. I would highly recommend it and we will be booking again in the future for sure!
