Great weekend getaway

I stayed 2 nights at Matt’s campground, and my girlfriend and I had a blast! Matt and his wife were very friendly and communicative so all of our questions were answered. The campsite is very private and the property is stunning and peaceful. We were about a 20 minute drive from downtown Frankenmuth, which made it very easy to walk around and explore during the day. There is also a small market about 5 minutes from the campsite that serves delicious sausages and meats! Would happily stay here again!
