Why Campground & Resort Owners Trust Ken Weaver to Sell Their Michigan Properties—-

Thinking of Selling your Michigan Campground??

Selling a campground, resort, or recreational property in Michigan is not the same as selling a house. These properties are businesses, lifestyle investments, and income-producing assets all rolled into one. They require specialized marketing, industry knowledge, and a broker who understands both real estate and operations.

That’s why so many campground and resort owners choose Ken Weaver of Traverse North Realty to market and sell their properties.

With over 20 years of experience and more than $150 million in closed sales, Ken has built a reputation as Michigan’s premier broker for campgrounds, cabins, resorts, and recreational properties.


1. Niche Expertise in Campgrounds & Resorts

Ken Weaver doesn’t just sell real estate — he specializes in:

  • Campgrounds
  • RV parks
  • Cabins & cottage resorts
  • Waterfront resorts
  • Outdoor recreation businesses
  • Investment and lifestyle properties

These are complex properties with unique income streams, zoning considerations, licensing requirements, and operational details. Ken understands how buyers evaluate:

  • Seasonal income
  • Occupancy rates
  • Expansion potential
  • Waterfront and recreational access
  • Infrastructure (utilities, roads, septic, docks, etc.)

This expertise allows him to properly position your property for serious, qualified buyers.


2. Targeted Websites Built for Buyers Searching for Campgrounds

Ken doesn’t rely on generic real estate platforms alone. He operates multiple niche websites that attract buyers specifically searching for Michigan campgrounds and resorts, including:

  • CabinsAndCamps.com
  • ResortsMIch.com

These sites are designed to rank for campground and resort searches and reach investors, operators, and lifestyle buyers looking for:

  • Turnkey campgrounds
  • Family-owned resorts
  • Riverfront and lakefront properties

This gives your property far more exposure than a standard MLS listing alone.


3. Powerful Social Media & Video Marketing

Ken actively markets properties through:

  • Facebook
  • YouTube

  • Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices network

Video walkthroughs, drone footage, and business-overview content help buyers understand:
