Great stay

We camped with a couple friend of ours here at the Skinny Dipper cottage. We enjoyed our time together. Our toddlers especially loved the playground and open space to run, along with the fishing dock just across the creek. We’ll be back.

Decent property but misleading post

My impression was our cabin would be lakefront which is what i put in the search. While the property itself is lake front, our actual cabin was not and there was no view of the lake where we were. I found this misleading and I'm not sure this was mentioned somewhere but it certainly wasn't the impression i was under by the listing, pictures etc Otherwise the stay was as expected, kitchen could be stocked a little better such as a wine opener. It's the little things. We had a nice time all in all but are not likely to return.

Summer Getaway

Owner was super friendly and responsive to our needs. We filled the cabin to capacity but spent all our time in the lake, grilling, or by the fire pit. Rained a couple day but who cares. Brought kayaks with us but the guys used camp-supplied boats for fishing. The beach is tiny...just big enough to get to the water. It was a lovely vacay.

wonderful stay

Overall everything was perfect. The lake was perfect for kayaking and the kayaking rental rates are ridiculously awesome! The only downside is that the well-water smells so bad that it makes the cabin stink, and they should invest a little more into making the cabins feel cozy.

I enjoyed my weekend at this property. Being on the no wake section of the two lakes, allows for an experience without the watercraft moving all around you.

Mostly good!

Very cute clean well maintained cottage. Bed was VERY comfortable. Huge drawback was the water, smelled like rotten eggs. We brought our own but no one could take a shower and washing dishes was awful. Lake was great, fishing and swimming with kids was awesome.

Hey there!

Welcome to Camp Blue Canoe and thank you for checking us out. We are the family behind this beautiful, nature filled getaway we call paradise! Our tribe, the LaGiglias and the Regans, is all in the family. Bustling with 4 adults and 7 kids between our two households, we understand the daily grind, the everyday challenges, and frankly... the need to sometimes just got out of Dodge. The first time we walked this amazing 13 acres of Pure Michigan, we were completely sold. The rolling green hills, the waving forest trees, and the majestic Little Pleasant Lake instantly captured our family's hearts.

Our goal is to create that home away from home for families just like ours. We hope everyone staying at Camp Blue Canoe can wind down, take in the fresh air, and forget life for awhile. We are committed to making your stay as enjoyable and memorable as possible and creating a relaxing environment. Stay tuned, we have huge plans for this place and hope you will come along for the ride!

Cheers.... Salute.... Cent'Anni.... Céad Míle Fáilte,

John, Mel, Joe, & Sarah

Why they chose this property

Escape to nature! With only one other house on the lake and no motor boats buzzing around, you are really out in nature with all the comforts of a cottage. We are also only 3 miles from Three Rivers where you can find lots to see, do, or buy supplies.

What makes this property unique

A quiet nature get-away without going too far away. :-)
