Private sites
95% of recent Hipcampers say the sites felt private.
This property has 4 camp spots. Sites 1 and 4 have a boat landing. All sites have shades trees that can hold hammocks. All sites are right next to the lake. Site 3 has a dock that all can use. There is excellent swimming with a sandy bottom at the south end of the lake. The lake is stocked with perch in 2024 but has walleye, northern, bass as well. It is also close to many lakes that are good for fishing. I have a 14' fishing boat with trolling motor, a paddle boat, 2 kayaks, and canoe for campers to use for free. Firewood is available for $5/day. There is some hiking on the property and much near by. Biking is also good with small lakes nearby to visit. The camping here is very peaceful with wonderful views and the wildlife is awesome! 120 volt power is at all sites and 220 can reach sites 2 and 3. There is warm showers and flushing toilets. Also all sites are drive through on hard ground grass. Grates are provided for cooking over the fire. There is Wi-Fi internet that reaches sites 1-3

Site 3 - Camping on private lake
Beautiful site
This place was Amazing!!! It was beautiful, peaceful and private. The host met us and let us pick a site. There was one other Group camping at the same time But the sites were so private we hardly ever saw them! The use of the kayaks canoes and battery powered boat was a definite plus. We took some nice evening paddles around the Lake. The bathroom was clean and then good working condition. Shower was refreshing. I love the outdoor shower. We will definitely come back if we’re in the area again.!

Site 2 - Camping on private lake
Relaxing get away space
Jim’s camp site and lake was exactly what we were looking for. It is peaceful, secluded and has the basic amenities one would want. An outdoor shower, toilet and plenty of firewood. The grill grate at each site is also handy for cooking meals. The host is laid back and happy about life. He finds joy in sharing his property plus some of the hidden secrets there. Would stay again and likely will!

Site 1 - Camping on private lake
me and some girlfriends camped here for a week and WOW! The private lake was amazing for swimming and floating, and taking out the paddle boat and fishing boat that Jim provides. Jim was very laid back with us, he let us set up wherever and hooked up the power for us. it’s a super pretty place to stay and connect with nature, and Jim is the best! he was very laid back, relaxed, and beyond helpful! (not to mention his super cute pup that visited us most mornings). We left 2 days early and Jim even refunded some of the money, which was totally unnecessary but very much appreciated! Overall, amazing place to stay and an amazing host! we will be back!

Would recommend!!!
Camping was amazing! There were large area camping sites with great views of the lake, outside showers and shack for bathroom along with a public camper to use for shower and bathroom as well! There was kayaks, a canoe, and a small motor boat free to use! Host was very nice and and generous with dropping off dry wood periodically, a hammock, and setting up a mini fridge for food supplies.

Site 4 - Camping on private lake
This place was awesome! The sites were big, grassy, and very pretty. The host was super friendly and gave us access to kayaks, hammocks, and a little boat for fishing. Unfortunately, we were only there one night and it was super windy so we didn’t get to play with the toys much but I would definitely go back.

Host is so easy to work with!
I was unable to make my reservation due to a work issue and a weekend of rain. Jim was extremely flexible and even refunded some of my fees. He did not need to do this and I am grateful for his generosity. I will book with Jim again for this reason. Thanks Jim!
