Quick camping getaway
Excellent stay! Karen was an exceptional host. Enjoyed the property and the bathroom set up to allow for showers. The fall colors were stunning. Enjoyed the canoeing as well.

Beautiful setting
Everything was amazing! I only wish with only 1 bath house that there was a porta John or something in the rustic part. 4 different rentals sharing 1 bathroom can be a bit difficult

Wonderful campsite on the Near River
We loved our stay at this location! There are two sites and a cabin (separated by a path through the woods) but we had the privilege of having the whole place to ourselves. The bathroom/shower is quite nice and even had a heater for cold northern nights. The host was wonderful and quite attentive when we had questions. The ground is plant covered and the dirt is easy to put stakes in. Lots of little fish in the river. We didn't catch anything large, but my boys had fun!

Beautiful Camp
The property is beautiful and in a great location for exploring petosky. Karen was very nice and helpful. She also owns a canoe livery across the street which could be a fun thing to explore while staying here.
