Cozy Camper on the banks of the Manistee River.

One of the biggest draws of this location is its proximity to the Manistee River. Known for its winding, crystal clear waters and rich history, the Manistee River is a favorite among kayakers, canoeists, and anglers alike. Just steps away from the camper, you can relax by the riverbank, listen to the gentle flow of water, or cast a line and try your luck at catching dinner. Ever so often mist rises off the water, creating a serene dreamlike view that’s truly unforgettable. Glamping at its finest.
This is the “Glamping” experience you have been looking for at its finest. Nestled on the banks of the Manistee River surrounded by wildlife. Peace and quiet surrounded by nature and the flowing river.
Centrally located in the heart of Michigan this location offers a variety of activities for everyone. We are close to hiking, ORV trails, ATV, mountain biking, canoeing, kayaking, swimming, fishing and everything northern Michigan has to offer.
