This 50-acre property is part of a 130-acre farm and is currently an organic heirloom vegetable seed farm that is only 12 minutes from Ann Arbor. Part of it was formerly owned by the Egeler family who at one time owned quite a bit of Marshall Rd and this part of was owned by the Mersereau family. It was formerly a conventional farm, but we've converted it to organic production. The rolling land is 1/2 forest and 1/2 fields, making it a biodiverse hot spot for plants, animals, and fungi.
We really enjoyed our stay here! We had a concert in Ann Arbor and needed a place to camp for the night and this place was great! The property is big and we were all the way in the back of their property and there was no one else around. It felt like we were backcountry camping even though we were right in someone's backyard. The hosts were so kind and welcoming when we arrived too. They even invited us to join their bonfire gathering when we got back from the concert.
We loved our stay on Michael's land. It was so helpful to have firewood at the site and our morning views were beautiful. The portapotty was really clean too and we didn't mind the walk from the campsite to the bathroom/our cars. Site 9 is truly worth it! We got to see so many different birds and felt like the only people for miles around. We will definitely return!
