I went looking for information on our Wisconsin State parks and what I found did not answer my questions. I couldn't tell if the neighboring sites were close, or if we had good brush between sites. It's hard to tell if your site backs up to another, and you definitely can't find the true waterfront campsites.
While campground tours are still a part of the channel, I have ventured out on more trails and expanded my travels to include some quick stops as well as a few National Parks.
I look forward to many more adventures.

All the old apple trees at Fayette are pretty cool too. They grow many places on the peninsula.
Thanks is for that information
another nice video THANKS
I went on a night walk along the beach while staying here the other summer. It was a nice walk until I shined my light down along the beach and saw a few hundred sets of eyes looking back at me. They were 'Sand Wolf Spiders' about the size of a half dollar coin and it was the mother load. The next day I went back out and apparently they burrow in the sand during the day. I also saw a large family with kids playing in the sand so I shook my head at the thought and left. The fun narrow access road keeps the oversized "glampers" out so it was an immersive stay, there's hardly any businesses or people living out on this peninsula so make sure you have what you need long *before* you make the 10 mile trek down the access road. Lastly reception is very hit or miss depending on your type of service. Very peaceful place and comforting to look back at homeland Wisconsin while we stayed.
Those may have been the spiders I saw glowing under a UV light. That's freeky
Love that place. We gotta get there.
❤
Thanks for sharing a piece of your spirit and making living in the Midwest a bit more enjoyable. 🌎🕊🌄
Gee, thanks
Question. I just received mine today and I’m charging it through a 40W brick into usbC port. Will it stop charging on its own or do I have to unplug it after the fourth bar stops blinking? I’m not quite sure as of now. The third light is still blinking, but I don’t wanna overcharge the battery if I fall asleep. Do I need to monitor this?
I wouldn't worry about overcharging it
I absolutely loved visiting Kitch iti Kipi! I never could pronounce it 😅 It was such a beautiful sight.
the door with all the nails in it memorized me when I saw it, awesome craftsmanship
❤
I have one of these. It serves me well in my 4runner. Very important detail on my 2year old version: the hub TURNS OFF WHEN THERE IS NO LOAD for a period of time. It states this in the manual and it is of great importance if you want to leave a fridge unattended. I wired my fridge directly to the terminals per tech support bypassing the hub.
I found the new one also turns off. Even sofisticated power stations have a time out feature. But some can set how long that time out is. Found this out with my ecoflow and fridge when I was using up this winter and other never kicked in
Thank you!
You're welcome!
The only issue is with this updated version, your limited to 80w solar input. The previous one was 100w
That is a drawback. But only for the hub. I'm sure if you bypass the hub and use a different solar charge controller direct to the battery terminals, you can up that.
@@SconnyWandering yep, your correct. I did buy the battery in your video, just without the hub. Made my own ports on a battery box, and wired directly. Maybe solar in the future, but for now, works perfect. Great video btw. I think more folks should look into that battery/module set up.
$176 plus free shipping and no sales tax, nice! Thanks!
That is a good price.
😞😞 I missed that sale .Correction, I was at Amazon, I got it for 176 also from them direct, TY !
Such a fantastic video. Helps to give you a much better view and understanding of each site before booking. Thank you!
Book early to get the choices
Thank you Sconny for your code $176 what a lovely deal
You are so welcome
Sconny lower the music. It’s too loud. It overpowers your voice. Otherwise it’s a great review
Fair point
I have put a live catch resetting mouse trap in my camper, it works well
another nice video THANKS
I’m glad you enjoyed it.

This is one of my favorite videos on your channel. 😊 Lovely way to start my day!
I am glad to hear that!
Any chance you’re going to revisit this park and do a walk through?
At some point. It's a lot not sites. Perhaps I'll look at it as a winter camping spot to get a good walk through
My wife and I were there back in October this year (2024)! Had a great time.
Thx. Just used your code and paid $176 total
So cheep for 1000 watt hours

My wife and I visited here one early summer day a while back. We hiked the trail to the upper falls, bought some ice cream and decided to hike the trail back that led deeper into the woods. The mosquitoes were thick. Swarms began to follow as the journey descended into madness. Be sure to prepare for this.
That’s a good heads up. Thanks for the heads up.
@SconnyWandering We began our hike early on a beautiful sunny day. We had our dog and had packed plenty of water. I wasn't thinking mosquitoes would be a problem mid-day. I had repellent, but left it in the truck. Apart from that, it is one of the most beautiful places I've ever visited.
It's been over 50 years since my parents, 2 brothers and sister camped there. We had 3 different campers. To the best of my memory first was a Nimrod pop up tent, then a big Apache camper, 3rd Moms favorite a Coleman camper.
Camping does create core memories
😂😂😂 the sweatshirts! Glad you found ‘em and gave a good laugh
Ohhh, I enjoyed this!! Beautiful sights and destinations! 😊

For hikers there is a booth with a line to the bridge authority. They will drive hikers across the bridge.
Good to know
Can you connect this battery to one without the hub -parallel? and charge it through the hub? I bought one with a hub. and bought another without the hub because I figure I dont need two hubs.. and now.. I am super confused
I am not completely sure. But if you do, it's going to take twice as long.
@@SconnyWandering thank you
@@SconnyWandering I am just going to connect them parallel.. even though one has a hub and one not.. and go through a MPPT charge controller.. which is what I was trying to avoid. and my husband was very excited that the 12v fridge can be charged with the hub.. but I am here complaints about that too.. and fridge is kinda important.. I may have to connect the fridge some other way as well.
Thank you! I enjoyed your video. You give off "Adventure with Uncle Dave" vibes.😊
I've been to Bond Falls in the fall, but I didn't know about the free camping. This is a beautiful area.
Good one Peter.
Peter are you going to go over to Wilderness State Park west of Mackinac City?
I had to skip that one this year. It's marked for another time
❤
another great review thanks
I am glad you found it helpful.
another nice video THANKS
You’re welcome!
Beautiful look at the area. I hope to get to visit here one day! 😊
So do you have solar panels and how do you store it in your van it needs are right
I have some folding ones. They store behind the drivers seat
If you are ever in the area again I recommend checking out Fisherman’s Island state park just south of Charlevoix. It’s all rustic but the site are widely spaced, there are even a few on the beach.
Thanks for the tip. Look nice
Slowest chairlift in the world. 🤣🤣🤣
I've been binge watching your Lake Michigan series! They are helping me plan my 2025 camping trips. Thanks for being my campground tour hero! BTW… as you know I love waterfalls too so it’s fun to see the cascades no matter how small! 😊
Glad I'm providing entertainment during your recovery.
Looking forward to watching the rest of your Shawnee NF campground vids because it’s an area I want to explore
thanks Peter.
I always liked that area. Gotta get back
Do you just travel full time or do you stop at home
Usually I take three days trips. This was a 10-day trip. Then, back home. If I was full-time I would have traveled slower.
Excellent video. Love these tours
Who are you finding are the camping population because I often thought if I had my own little space or yard or garden I wouldn't need to go camping I was just wondering if many people are in the same position or?
