Private RV sites: Great Lakes

Farm stays and lake-country lots across the Great Lakes states — Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, and Minnesota. Hosts are working farms, orchard country, and families with land near the water, from the Indiana Dunes to Michigan's fruit belt and Minnesota's lake districts.

$35–65 / night · typical host rates Electric + water typical Fits rigs up to 45 ft

Typical hookups

30-amp electric and water are typical at farmsteads; sites nearer the lakes more often have 50-amp and occasionally sewer. Well water is the norm — bring a filter if you're particular.

Rig size notes

Open farm country takes 45 feet without drama. Lake-town streets and older cottage roads are the pinch points.

Good to know

Lake-effect snow changes plans October through April on the eastern shores. Summer weekends near the water book out — reserve ahead or aim midweek. Indiana hosts and guests: this region also links our nine detailed Indiana local guides.

Own land here?

If you have a flat spot, a barn with power, or acreage near Great Lakes, you could be earning from a rig or two parked on it — without running a campground.

Our first local guides: Indiana

We started in Indiana, so it has the deep local guides — county-by-county notes on hookups, rig sizes, and local quirks. More state guides follow as hosts join in each state.
