About this campground/ rv resort rental

Welcome to the peace and rippling sounds of the North Branch of the Manistee River just outside your decked-out, glamping tent door!

Rippling Bluff is exceptionally charming, but with an extra unique feature, one of the two tents is a Stargazer Stout tent, making this site highly desirable! The Stargazer tent, peak is a window where sleeping under the stars is comfortable, tucked away in your warm and comfy real bed!

The second tent is also a 16-foot Stout tent but without the peak window. Each tent can sleep four people, and the site occupancy is 8 (the base price is for two people each additional person is $12/night. If your party includes more than 8 guests, including children, you must talk to the host before booking. PLEASE BE ACCURATE WITH THE AMOUNT OF GUESTS YOU WILL BE BRINGING!

This site can accommodate up to 8 people. Each tent has one full bed and two comfy cots (outfitted with a cushion, sleeping bag, and pillow). REMEMBER to state your guests accurately.

I had a fantastic stay at this glamping site! Chad and Aimee really know how to go above and beyond for their guests. While I was alone at the campsite, I felt very comfortable and safe. The walk to the river is very easy. Definitely enjoyed reading my book in the hammocks they provided. When I discovered the bathroom/kitchen off shoot area, I was even more impressed with it still feeling like I was camping, with modern facilities. I loved the crafts and coloring books— it made me feel like a kid again. Thank you thank you thank you! I had a blast and I will be back soon!

The most stress-free version of camping there is! Peaceful, whimsical, private stay. I'm a single mom and took my 6 and 9 year old to explore MI. This was the perfect base camp for us. The kids loved exploring and relaxing in the hammocks by the babbling water. Thank you!

We are avid rustic campers and had to come to the TC area for our 14 y/o. We loved the idea of camping without the process of packing all of our gear, setting up and tearing down. This was perfect. Everything you would need for a rustic camping experience with the added benefit of actual beds, a real bathroom and shower ( the outdoor shower is amazing!) and very well thought out decor and creature comforts. The property is beautiful and Chad and Aimee were easy to communicate with and very accommodating. All and all our family ( 2 boys 11&14, and my wife and I ) had a great experience. We highly recommend and would return.

This place could not have been set up more perfectly! Chad & Aimee thought of everything to make our stay totally relaxing! We showed up with our food and clothes and they provided the rest. The site had more than we had imagined. Hammocks, fire places, cute lights led the paths, clean bath house and so much more. Each site has its own little area of peace and quiet as well. They were also great hosts and made sure we had a great time (it rained almost our entire stay and they helped give us many options to make the most of it!) We will definitely be heading back again!Thanks Chad and Aimee! You did an amazing job!
