    Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.
    Off-leash friendly
    Pets can be off-leash at this Hipcamp.
    Hey there! Thanks fer takin’ a peek at Camp Happy Pond! I hope ya find this here landin’ pad as cozy and invitin’ as we do up here in the north woods—perfect fer makin’ some good ol’ memories, dontcha know! This Summer 2025, we’re gonna be hammerin’ away at a little cabin, so I’ll block off some weekends here and there ‘til she’s done. But don’t ya worry none—in the meantime, we’re fixin’ up the site real nice-like (levelin’ the ground, fillin’ in them soggy spots, ya know the drill), so it’ll be even better for campin. Pardon our mess, —it’s all for makin’ things comfier for ya! If ya got any wonderin’s ‘fore ya book, just holler at me—I’d love a good chat! This here’s where we hang out on them warm summer nights and crisp fall evenin’s. You’ll be the only campers on 30 acres, surrounded by nothin’ but wild, empty land—close to the road but tucked away private-like. No bumpin’ into other folks out here! We’ve made heaps of memories ‘round the campfire and trompin’ through the trees. There’s plenty of room for us to roll in our 18ft Ice Castle for campin’, plus space galore fer tents if that’s yer style. The pictures show our setup, but just so ya know, the Ice Castle ain’t part of the deal and won’t be sittin’ there when ya come. We got a trail that loops ‘round the property—not a cakewalk, mind ya, but real nice fer stretchin’ yer legs or takin’ a spin on a wheeler. If ya bring a wheeler, just keep it respectful —this is our family’s memory-makin’ spot too. You can get to Happy Pond through our trail system—it’s way back there, ‘bout 70 acres deep at the tail end of our land. We zip back there on the four-wheeler, and there’s a little boat waitin’ if ya wanna paddle out on that 10-acre lake. Pretty peaceful! Nothin’ beats cookin’ grub over the fire, playin’ some yard games, and listenin’ to them frogs chattin’ away at night from the low spot on the site. My kiddo can poke around in the water lookin’ at critters for hours. There’s tons of rivers and lakes ‘round here too—fishin’, hikin’, foragin’, golfin’, ATV ridin’, and all sorts of summer fun, eh. Campers get this whole 30 acres to themselves, surrounded by the wild, untouched woods and all the critters and plants that come with it. Copper Falls State Park’s just a 14-minute jaunt north (8 miles)Hey there! Thanks fer takin’ a peek at Camp Happy Pond!

    Quiet little spot
    Tent
    Spent a couple nights looking for a secluded spot and stumbled across Camp Blue Rock. Was not disappointed! The spot was large enough to fit my tent, screen tent (much needed as the flies will torment you to no end this time of year) and suv. Prices was reasonable but make sure to read that there is no running water, bathroom or electricity so pack ahead with that in mind. Copper falls was nearby and was a great spot to hike around. Will definitely be back
