Our family purchased this land for adventure. We would love to share our adventure with you. Groomed UTV/hiking trails on our property. Hiking access into Duck Egg county park with over 10 miles of trails to explore on 900 acres. Drive and park directly at our cabin nestled in the driftless. It is totally private on 140 acres. Watch the wildlife from the porch while enjoying a campfire. The cabin offers 2 queen beds on the loft, a futon and fully stocked kitchen. Outdoor bathroom with plumbing. We offer 2 campsites directly on the Bad Axe River with hike in or utv assist access only. Park at designated parking area. The campsite has fire ring and table and chairs at the site, firewood available for 10/night. 5 gallons potable water provided. Hike in or purchase utv assist to get gear to the site $20 both ways We also have a 'glampsite' which already has a 10x12 wall tent on a 12x20 platform, with a queen bed and all bedding included. 10 gallons potable water provided. An outdoor kitchen contains everything you need to lessen your packing for a total relaxed and spoiled camping experience, all paper products and cookware in stocked kitchen. Charcoal and grill, 24" gas griddle, 2 burner coleman stove with propane included. Glamp directly on the river. There is a separate picnic area with fire ring, picnic table and swing set for the kids! Pets are welcome! We do ask for a $20 pet fee at the cabin and glampsite as there is extra cleaning involved, thank you! Watch the stars at night and catch trout in the river by day! Heavin in the Driftless.

Bad Axe Tent Camping
Just what I needed.
Cory and Lynn's valley is beautiful! I loved listening to the babbling brook and watching the birds. I was greeted by a hummingbird the minute I got out of my van. It rained the first night we were there, so I was very thankful for the large tarp. I was able to set my backpacking tent, two of the provided chairs and a table under the tarp and just relax and listen to the pitter-patter of the rain. We walked the valley and napped in the hammock. I a restorative weekend.

Brye's Bad Axe Ridgetop Camping
The site is at the end of a dead end road and felt very private, though there is a nearby house that seems like it may be a seasonal residence with a sign that dogs/kids may be playing. The camp itself is between a lot of mowed grass and an ag field, which was perfect for our dogs to run around safely but doesn't necessarily feel like you're "in nature" if that is your goal. The trail down to the creek was steep and a bit trecherous after the rain (muddy!) and leads down to a faster moving/rocky section which made us a tad bit nervous since our dogs could have gotten hurt if they jumped in, but further upstream it was calmer. If the goal of your trip is to be by water, I'd advise going for one of the streamside campsites instead of the ridgetop since the climb is a bit limiting- but if you're going for privacy, a view of the stars, and a more open environment for games for dogs/kids to play, the ridgetop was nice!

Brye's Bad Axe Ridgetop Camping
We love tent camping at this beautiful site. It was nice and secluded and not so far out that we couldn't go to town for some shopping. The river was a steep hike down but so beautiful and relaxing with a little space to set a few chairs while enjoying the sounds of the river. Both child and dog approved.

Bad Axe Tent Camping 2
Great spot for a friend group
Lynn was very communicative in setting up a time to take the atv out to the site! I really enjoyed our site next to the water and appreciated that they had a mosquito tent with all the rain we got this summer. The outhouse is also very nice and walkable from the site.

Bad Axe Tent Camping
Found My Favorite Midwest Campsite
I can't stop raving about this campsite it was 10/10. Right on the water, beautiful trails and vistas with wildflowers (we were there in late July), so many amenities (chairs, tables, grill, shade tent, clean outhouse with sink, big pile of firewood, tools), mosquitos were almost nonexistent. Secluded, spacious, hospitable hosts, the list goes on. Felt very lucky to have the chance to visit and I can't wait to return! As all the other reviews say, definitely recommend the UTV assist. THANK YOU! One piece of feedback we had was that it would be nice to have a comprehensive list of what tools and resources are provided before arriving. We ended up bringing more than we needed because there was so much stuff already provided. (not at all a bad problem)
