This isn't like other gay spaces you've experienced.
It’s not one type of person. It’s not one kind of energy.
It’s people being real. Relaxed. Expressive. A little messy sometimes. Comfortable in ways we don’t always get to be elsewhere.

real. relaxed. expressive.
What People Say After They've Been Here
RIKI WHITE1 June 2026 Campsites are a little small but the staff is amazing and the vibes are immaculate! LIESL GENEVA2 May 2026 We love it so much here that we're looking into getting a seasonal spot. The staff is great, the people are super friendly, and the location can't be beat. You're 10 minutes from Saugatuck / Douglas / Lake Michigan in one direction and not much further to Fennville in the other. There are restaurants and shops in either spot, but honestly you don't need to leave the campground to have an excellent time. If it's the weekend, leave the kiddos at home as it's 21+. S D26 April 2026 We had such an incredible experience at this campground. It truly stands out as a welcoming, inclusive space where you can fully relax and just be yourself. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere felt warm, open, and community-driven. We visited during their Wellness Weekend, and it was such a fun, rejuvenating experience. There was the perfect balance of relaxation and connection, with activities that felt intentional but not overwhelming. One of the highlights was the partner's massage class led by Matt Winings. You can immediately tell how passionate and knowledgeable he is about massage therap - his guidance was approachable, informative, and engaging. Having personally experienced his work as an LMT, I can confidently say his 15+ years of experience truly shines through. The class added such a unique and meaningful touch to the weekend. They also did such a great job weaving in fun, lighthearted activities. The “Meat and Greet” anatomy trivia was a hilarious and clever way to bring people together - we were laughing the entire time while still somehow learning something new. And the potato bar was a total hit - so many topping options that everyone could customize their plate exactly how they wanted. It was such a thoughtful (and delicious!) touch that added to the overall sense of community. We stayed in one of the adorable waterfront cabins, and it was wonderful. The deck overlooking the water was peaceful and beautiful - an ideal spot for morning coffee or winding down in the evening (the firepit was another bonus). One of our favorite little moments was feeding the koi fish from the lookout spot - such a simple but memorable experience. Getting around the campground in a golf cart was a blast! It added a fun, carefree vibe to the whole stay, and a great way to meet new friends. Only downfall was the store not being opened during posted times. We were unable to purchase ice and firewood when needed. CAM HURLEY25 April 2026 What a wonderful place. I can't say enough good things!! ANGELA R23 March 2026 Great place to stay!!! A lot of great music and fun! ELIZABETH F9 March 2026 My new favorite! Everyone was awesome!!!
I didn't expect to feel this comfortable.
I showed up alone and left with friends.
It felt like I could finally just be myself.
It's hard to explain, but it's real.
Campit isn't separate from the community — it's part of it.
