Our space offers a unique getaway experience; Hartford, Michigan is a rural area with room to camp, hike, hunt, and fish (if you are interested in hunting, please make sure you have a proper license to do so and let us know ahead of time).

Closeby, you will find our family farm on 110 acres where we humanely and organically raise our animals and make old-fashioned pure maple syrup. If you are interested in learning more about or experiencing our farm, we invite you to visit during your stay at our space!

Yearound, say hello to our farm animals - oxen & chickens! In February & March, we invite you to join us in tapping trees and collecting sap for maple syrup. In wintertime, we allow our guests to use our snowshoes and enjoy ice fishing on Duck Lake. In the summers, you will love driving to Lake Michigan’s beaches and enjoying the sun and the sand. Or stay in the area to fish and in the evenings, make s’mores in the private fire pit just outside your space. There are many local wineries in the area as well, so our space is great for a bachelorette or bachelor event.

We allow our guests to use our watercrafts; paddle-boat, kayak, & paddle-board. We also have bicycles that guests are allowed to use during their stay.

Other things to note
We do not have a charger for electric vehicles.
