We built our home 30 years ago on 8 acres of hay field. Everything you see on our property was put here by us!! We have had dogs, a couple of horses, cats of course and chickens too. The horses, dogs and chickens are gone but we still have cats...and we have a pond off our deck with about 50 goldfish and a couple dozen frogs!! Our kids are all grown and we are left wondering what is next. For the past 12 years or so we have had at least one or two camp outs a year on our property with just friends. Then we started thinking "why not invite others?" We know how difficult it can be to get camping reservations in the area....then I bumped into a Hipcamp Host who told me about this.... so here we are! We are animal and nature lovers and our gardens are here for you to enjoy. We'd love to give you a tour and tell you all about every plant if you are interested. Or we will ignore you and let you do your own thing in our 'backyard'! We offer rustic boondocks camping or set up nearer to our buildings and we can supply you with power....110, 30 and 50 available for a small extra charge Welcome to Traverse City and welcome to Camp David!! I have a Facebook page with lots of fun and interesting things to do and see as well as great restaurant recommendations for Traverse City and beyond, on my travel page...Towhead Travels....on Facebook. Please look me up! ******NEW IN 2023****** We have an outhouse on site!! Firewood (oak) is available to purchase when you get here.

Beautiful night in Traverse City

Gail was very communicative and helpful in meeting us upon arrival. She was responsive to questions and in sharing their beautiful Camp David. The site was well situated overlooking beautiful fields. The sunset and sunrise were both enjoyed. There was only a short walk to the restroom.

Quiet and Sweet

Gail was a lovely hostess! She made sure I had all the info I needed to camp comfortably. I had a nice, flat space to set up my tent with shade in the morning, but full sun the rest of the time. Each site was visible from the others, but it was a quiet community of folks. I had a fire ring, and Gail brought a milk crate packed full of seasoned firewood, kindling (including a bundle of newspaper) and a bucket of water for $5. The port-o-potty was easily accessible, there was trash and recycling available on-site and a hose for filling my water bottle and having a pseudo outdoor shower (just out in the open!). The land was well maintained, very easy to find, and everything was accessible.
