Welcome to the Hemlock Ridge Homestead! This custom log home built in the early 2000's was a dream of mine since I was 8 years old. Our family lives here year round and absolutely love it. These sites are on a seasonal road so travel in and out can be impeded at times due to weather or external forces, such as tree falls, wash outs, etc. This is a self sufficient homestead in the making. Our garden has progressed greatly, and our fruit tree orchards are starting to produce. The free range chickens are fun and quirky, offering farm fresh eggs. We just opened our second site, the Prairieview Chalet 2024 summer. Both sites offer great amenities. The Acorn Retreat cabin includes a hot tub, gas weber grill and other amenities. The bouchee outhouse is shared by both sites and is cleaned regularly. The new Prairieview Chalet is an exceptional adventurers haven! It has all the things you want after a day(s) out in the wilderness, with amenities like a hot shower, fully stocked kitchen, linens and more. Our property reflects our love of the land and space. We are always making improvements, such as the timber framed chicken coop. We now have a ping pong table for our guests, and still offer farm fresh eggs. Our motto is to make every place better than we found it and hope our guests will do the same. This is a zen, quiet place to heal, reflect and refill your cup of life:)

Would stay again!
My friend and I stayed here friday-sunday at the end of October. We wanted a girl's weekend getaway and boy did we get it! The tiny home was very cute and eclectic in decorations. Arriving to a fresh from the chicken dozen eggs was phenomenal. We also pre-ordered firewood and the fire ring was set up and ready to go upon arrival. Unfortunately, we were in a fire ban and were unable to use it. April offered to refund us for the firewood. The hot tub was phenomenal the first night we arrived. I think we stayed in there for 5 hours enjoying adult beverages, talking, and listening to music. There was a nice partition on the side facing the house that provided privacy. The grill definitely came in clutch during the fire ban as we had planned to use the campfire for making meals. Having the hiking trails within walking distance from our site was phenomenal. Heads up to future visitors: the hike is no joke. Wear hiking boots especially if you're not use to the terrain. There is electric but only two outlets so keep that in mind. Thankfully my CPAP has a long plugin cord and made it from the kitchenette to the bedroom easily. My friend and I agreed we'd love to come back! Super friendly dogs on the property were a huge plus as dog lovers.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Acorn Cottage. We saw the northern lights, the most incredible performance. The location and set up was great. Unfortunately the hosts did not set up the propane for the furnace before we arrived so we were in the 50 degree cabin with a baby for over an hour before we figured it out ourselves. The water jug was not full and we had to go get our own drinking water in town as there were no instructions left for us on where to fill the water. I think it was probably just a long season of hosting and some things fell through the cracks but for $200/night I was a little disappointed. Overall a good stay though!

April is a lovely host and great person! We stayed here with our one-year-old and since the camp is closer to other sites than we realized, we did worry about our noise level. The outdoor bathroom was near and stocked with everything you need. The cabin was very clean. All around a good stay!

Such a beautiful and lovely place! It was the perfect place to spend our honeymoon and we hope to go back again soon. Definitely a great place to go if you want to explore the UP, perfect center point for everything.

Prairieview Chalet
April’s prairie view tiny house is the perfect place for a Marquette getaway; it’s cozy, well appointed & remote yet near great hiking & MTB trails (NTN Forestville North trailhead is just down the road). This tiny house was designed for cooking with a spacious kitchen as well as reading/snuggling with a cozy nook with a small wall-hung fireplace & loft bed.
