ONE LITTLE KNOWN FACT: David & I are both bike folk. Our first date started out as a conversation over a fax machine (I was ordering parts for my Honda for VTR 250). A passionate discussion about 4 strokes vs 2 strokes led to dinner, which led to a second date, and here we are 17 years and even more bikes between us later. We’d spend our weekends riding or trailering them to far flung reaches of Michigan & Wisconsin. Ride every Toys-For-Tots in freezing-ass snow.

DUCK! This little room has the shortest ceilings, smallest square footprint and dullest knives– (but somehow, the most amazing meals have been coming out of its little door for years). A credit to the chefs who have crossed its threshold, and proof positive that a master can create anywhere, with anything. #PantryCloset
“GOOD MORNING, CAMPERS!!” Following in the footsteps of Meatballs, M*A*S*H & Moonrise Kingdom – our vintage PA system has just arrived. Get ready to awaken your fellow campers with a sunrise bugle reveille crackling over speakers backed by enough voltage to carry across the whole 25 acres. (RULE: The camp director hat must be worn while operating)
“I’d rather be shut up in a very modest cottage with my books, my family and a few old friends, dining on simple bacon, and letting the world roll by as it liked, than to occupy the most splendid post which any human power can give” – Thomas Jefferson ///// We found so much inspiration in those few words that they led us to find our own little 100 sf abandoned cabin (for $500) – breathed life back into her – and gave her a new home at camp. @cbobfoto. #Elbowgrease & #Blindfaith

Something big is on the horizon here at Camp… (We got the phone call almost a year ago & have been in mad planning and production since) Stay tuned & get ready to hit the road with us. Details rolling out this week. #SportmansDream by @seanmacd
1948 at the fishing dock. (we love it when we find old shots of this place back in the day) it reminds us that it’s ok to keep things simple. And that we are still able to enjoy the same stuff that our grandparents did.
Meet the newest addition to our camp mascot squad “Hank”. (And Charlie’s new bff) a three week old eastern gray squirrel – that lost his mommy and we found camping out in our kitchen, sustaining himself on table scraps. If things go as planned, he’ll be your lunch pal next time you visit us :) #LonelyFurballFound
