    The Fields of Michigan , a glamping—glamorous camping—resort located just outside South Haven, Mich., and just two hours from Chicago, is an epic outdoor experience to add to your summer plans this year. Irene Woods, founder of the Fields of Michigan, has built a space for her guests to connect with nature and just be.

    The beauty of simplicity and high quality at every turn is what the Fields of Michigan represents from the moment you arrive. Whether you come for an adventure or to escape the city, The Fields team will take care of you the minute you drive up their country road.

    Nestled within a working blueberry farm, this “Grounded Luxury” is a truly personalized, hosted experience that brings its guests back to a place of comfort. It is different for each guest.

    The Fields of Michigan will transport you back to your childhood and possibly your camp days. It will bring you closer to nature and allow you to connect to life’s simple pleasures as you slow down and reconnect with yourself and others.

    This is the Field of Michigan’s fourth season, and each year has brought new additions. In 2019, “The Willow” was opened as a space for guests to gather and eat. This space allows for great conversations while experiencing Chef Cameron Cypress’ stunning creations.

    As we gathered around the table for The Chef ’s Dinner, a community was created and numbers were exchanged. This was the most unexpected gift of our stay—connecting with new friends and talking about what we had experienced that day in South Haven.

    Bikes are available to rent on the property as well, and Lake Michigan 3 miles away as the crow flies. In 2021, The Camp Canteen and The Spa Bungalows were added. The Spa Bungalows are nestled individually in the woods allowing you to truly connect with nature.

    A few additional things to know: The Fields of Michigan is pet friendly, so bring your sweet furry friends, if you so choose. Each tent has its own bathroom, shower, and bath amenities. Every tent has electricity, and there is no Wi-Fi, but you will get over it.

    We stayed one night but would recommend at least two to three nights to maximize your serenity. Regardless of how many nights you stay, once you experience the Fields of Michigan you will always return.
