With a name like TentCraft, people count on us for all things tents. Pop-up tents, inflatable tents, permanent tents, pavilion tents, tailgate tents, frame tents. Whatever event tent you need, we've got you covered.
Literally.
Don't let that statement fool you, though. You might be thinking — hey, you guys make tents, and I need a tent for my camping trip next month. Can I order a camping tent from you? Oh, friend, I'm sorry. As much as we love camping, and as much as we wish we could make you a kick-ass camping tent, we can't. That's just not in our wheelhouse. Call REI, they'll get you all set up for the wilderness.
Moving on.
While we may not manufacture camping tents, we do love using them. You see, us TentCraft folk are mega outdoorsman, which means we're pretty much experts when it comes to camping in the wild. When you live in northern Michigan, where recreational opportunities are bountiful and there's a constant bonfire aroma wafting through the air, a campground basically becomes your second home.
From stunning lakeside sites to heavily wooded coves, there's something for everyone to enjoy, expert or not. We've rounded up our top picks for camping bliss to help you plan your next visit to Michigan. Take a look, and happy camping!
