Your Hosts - Dan and Arlene Cool: “We served as missionaries in South America for over 20 years. Our first assignment was in Santa Cruz, Bolivia, primarily at a school for missionary children, teaching Bible classes (Dan) and helping to start up and run a hot lunch program (Arlene). After this we ministered in Paraguay for 10 years. Our final years of missionary service were in Chile where we founded a missionary training school to train Chilean missionaries. Latin American students that we helped train are now serving around the world bringing hope and the Gospel to needy people. Harvest Village helps to support the ministries of our former students. We are excited to enter this new stage of our lives and to share our family’s centennial farm with people interested in healthier living and farm vacationing.” Your stay at Harvest Village helps bring hope to the hopeless; We set aside $1 /per guest, per night, to help our former students who are serving as missionaries in some of the neediest places around the world.

This was my first time camping— ever. As a girl who grew up in/around the city, it was the furthest thing from my mind, until recently. I decided to stay somewhere that was away from the bustle of a city, but still had accesible amenities and Harvest Village was perfect fit and more. Though I was the only guest on the grounds during my stay, the sites are all well-spaced and private enough from each other. The shared amenities are clean and in working order— there’s a shared indoor lodge space that has sitting areas, as well as a bathroom with a toilet and shower. The shower is small, but it was a nice luxury while camping. There is also potable water on the grounds, either through the bathroom or the spigot/hose near the work-shed. Aside from the amenities, the farm was indescribably peaceful and enjoyable. Dan and Arlene were absolute gems of hosts— appropriately attentive, friendly, hospitable, and generous. The temperature dropped to the 30s unexpectedly the evening I arrived and, unfortunately, I hadn’t prepared for that weather, but they offered me extra blankets and things to keep warm at night. I also got to learn about the farm— Dan offered to let me tag along while he completed evening chores with the animals and Arlene showed me the garden— which was so lovely and eye-opening. Overall, 100% enjoyable stay and campsite. I intend to be back soon and hope to bring friends. And blankets :) thank you Dan and Arlene for helping make my first camp trip a blast!

RV Camper Site on the Farm

Rustic farm close to Cadillac and several smaller lakes. Cadillac winery a short jaunt as well. We enjoyed walking the property with Dan. Watching the animals get fed was a treat. His dog herded the sheep into the barn. So cool to watch. Shower was very small and took awhile to warm up. However, thankful it was clean and available.

We had a nice stay on our way to Northern Michigan. The site on the farm was lovely and peaceful. No eggs were available but we did have a Rooster help to wake us up in the morning! I wish we could have stayed longer, but we will definitely keep them in mind for future trips!

RV Camper Site on the Farm

If you have toddlers then Dan and Arlene’s place is a must! The children all loved seeing farm animals up close and feeding them. We enjoyed having a lodge to hang out in after spending time cramped in our van. The camp sites were sweet too. The farm breakfast in the morning was the final and perfect touch. We are so happy we went and now our son keeps asking to go back to the farm with the big farm house.

Dan and Arlene were so welcoming and accommodating to our last minute stay! Their farm is beautiful and peaceful. It was the perfect relaxing weekend getaway for my husband and I. Definitely order fresh eggs from their farm for your campfire breakfast!
