We really enjoyed our stay on Jessica’s property! It’s nice and secluded, yet close to Boyne City where you can get the nice cozy town feel. The property itself is really quiet and pretty, with hiking all around. It was a nice stay!

Private and Beautiful Campsite

Tent

10/10 camping spot. I would 100% go back. This spot was incredibly beautiful, not to mention very private. Jessica's directions to the spot were easy to follow. I definitely recommend this site to anyone interested.

Overall we had a good experience but there were a few issues. We had an extremely hard time finding the site, we weren’t sent the directions until after the morning after we arrived. Once we got there, the field where the fire pit is was not mowed at all. Grass was up to our knees & growing over the fire pit. Some other reviews said you can hear neighbors and they were right. We heard neighbors partying until around 2am our first night. A neighbor also came by with their ATVs looking like they planned on using the land, they ended up leaving but it was a little strange. During the day we heard ATVs pretty much non stop. We had our dog with us and he had a hard time settling down with the all noise. Again, we had a good time but not as relaxing as we were hoping for.

Great spot for hammock camping. There was some noise from a neighboring property, but far enough away that it didn’t detract from the seclusion at all.

Overall a good experience! Host provided detailed instructions to the spot that had no address. Meadow with fire pit was overgrown but tent set up in the pines worked well.

This spot was perfect for us and our three dogs to relax. There was a large open spot for them to run and play. We enjoyed a quick walk through the pine trees. The drive in was a little bumpy and a few spots requiring extra caution if you have a small car. We did find a tick on my dog and myself afterwards so I would take extra precautions with that. Other than that loved the place. There was plenty to do nearby.
