So Peaceful

Perhaps the most private rental property I have ever stayed at. Never heard another living soul the entire time I was there. From someone who lives in major city, this was heaven on earth. Yet, the town & market were less only 5 minutes down the road, so incredibly convenient. Fantastic place to just get away from it all.

Group camp

We were meeting friends from around the states and this was a great spot for a large group. Exactly as described in a very private location. We had 18 people in our group, a 35 ft fifth wheel, 4 tents and a pop up. Plenty of space for everyone

Wonderful stay!

This was a great way to conclude our family road trip of touring some highlights of Michigan. The campsite was everything we imagined, plus more. Keith was a great host and the setup had everything we needed. The private location was topnotch and close to the Porcupine Mountains. Wish we could have stayed longer! Definitely recommend staying here!

A beautiful long weekend

We stay here every summer and will continue. This private campground is perfect for our family. We fished off the dock, played yard games, board games in the screen porch, sat around the fire, and roasted marshmallows. Our kids are worn out after a long weekend of camping and adventures in the Porcupine Mountains. Thanks for a wonderful stay!

Amazing Experience

This place is very nice and even better than the pictures. I expected excellence based on description, pictures and reviews. Our experience was beyond all expectations! The property is nestled far enough away for a quiet and relaxing experience but still close to marina, shopping, etc. I would stay here again.

Awesome secluded getaway

This property is amazing. The grounds are well maintained and very organized with so many little touches! Screened porch with a little fridge, indoor and outdoor games, a dock for fishing, picnic tables, Alexa with Amazon music, lots of space for friends. The camper was very well stocked and super clean. Being on the river was great. We saw eagles and sand hill cranes. Very private setting. The kitchen even had an air fryer and a presto pizza cooker.

Fantastic vacation in RV

Our family (2 adults, older teen and small dog) had a great vacation at this extremely private RV along the Ontogonan River. We lucked into some cooler August temperatures during our stay. While we only caught and released a "sunfish" (& saw other fish) and heard coyotes nearby (like, surrounding us?) the guest book mentioned catching sturgeon etc off the dock and sighting a bear during their stays. Wild turkeys peek into the campsite and run along the road leading to the campsite. The two evenings that had mosquitoes at the private dock were the best for fishing. We would return and perhaps ask friends to camp at the empty campsite on the property next time. The history museum and local restaurants are exceptional. The local grocery store is well stocked with all brands including organic and other specialty foods and water (we didn't like the taste of the potable water at the campsite). The RV is fully stocked with tons more necessities than a hotel kitchen. We wanted extra towels for our dog and for the RV floor for boots and found some at the huge dollar store near the grocery. If you have never stayed in an RV, you should stop into a dealership and do a walk through. The steps into this RV are steep and the door opens outward over the steps. The screen door hooks to the outer door, and you need to be quick. There is little floor space. The bathroom is small. Convenient hooks line the walls, but be prepared. The views are incredible and the bed is very comfortable.
