There was a very innovative tent camper manufacturer headquartered in Lapeer, Michigan some years ago that sold campers under the Apache brand name. The guy was pretty much a genius at making tent campers that set up and down quickly while being lightweight and easy to tow. Then in the 1970s, came up with "solid-state" camper with folding ABS panels instead of canvas. For some reason, the idea of buying a camp property reminded me of these campers.

We will continue to look at camps when we return from week in northern MN. Here is pics of one we have out eye's on now. Not far from the log cabin one we bid on. Has well, septic and wired for generator. Tractor is included. (would sell)

I think someone has too much sentimental value tied up on that property. However, time will tell if the market thinks so.

It will be interesting to see how long the $695K price lasts.

Not so sure, we have some off the lowest per acre prices here in the Ozarks, but just hunting property (raw land) has jumped by leaps and bounds. 10 years ago you could buy at <1000 per acre for 50+ acres now they are asking 4500 to 5000 per acre.

700k for 178 acres abutting wilderness is not unreasonable, even if I think it is highway robbery.

Its about location. We've only bid on proprieties X distance out of town.

No water other than a hand pump but no septic. This is why we offer less that they asked. Outhouse has a nicest looking building there...

The write up and pictures sure make it look nice.

I chuckled at this one though. Is that person looking through the binoculars backwards?
