1972 Holiday Rambler Vintage Camper #3

It’s 1972 and Mick Jagger just ordered a Tequila Sunrise at a bar in Sausalito — and the 1970s were never the same. This fully renovated Holiday Rambler is themed around that iconic drink and the decade that invented it: Earth Day, the open road, and groovy Northwoods nights. Recently renovated with amazing views of the forest. Sleeps 4.

Unit Description

On June 7, 1972, Bobby Lozoff created the Tequila Sunrise at the Trident Restaurant in Sausalito. Mick Jagger ordered one, loved it, and the Rolling Stones ordered them at every tour stop for the rest of the year. That same summer, this Holiday Rambler was rolling off the line — American-made, built for the open road, groovy as the decade itself. This fully renovated vintage camper is curated around that moment as part of POV Resort’s Living History Museum of Camping — America’s first. The 1970s brought Earth Day, environmental consciousness, and a generation that fell back in love with the outdoors. Climb in and feel it.

Inside: a queen bed in the bedroom and a full futon in the living area — sleeping up to 4. Dining table and chairs for meals, games, and rainy days. Recently renovated with open layout and stunning Northwoods views. No appliances or running water inside; bathhouse is nearby, cleaned 2–3 times daily. Outside: charcoal grill, hammock, Edison string lights, picnic table, and private firepit. Shared gas grill station with provided tanks in the campground. Basic electricity for lights, chargers, fans, CPAP machines, and low-draw appliances. Propane space heater provided — bring or purchase 1 lb canisters. Parking for two vehicles; overflow at the bathhouse.

NO PETS ALLOWED.

History of Camping - 1970s

One in six families owned a camper — the decade of KOA, Winnebago, environmental consciousness, and the weekend getaway as American ritual

By 1973, one in six American families owned a camper. KOA had grown from one Montana campground to 600 franchises nationally. Winnebago was rolling motorhomes off assembly lines. The weekend getaway had become America’s dominant vacation form — fill the tank, load the trailer, find a site somewhere that wasn’t home. Rachel Carson’s Silent Spring had seeded a new environmental consciousness, pulling a generation back to the woods for belonging, not just leisure. Wisconsin’s Northwoods felt that pull acutely. This Holiday Rambler was built in 1972, its interior designed in the warm oranges and golds of a Tequila Sunrise.

#4 – 1952 Lighthouse Vintage Camper

#image_title #separator_sa #attachment_caption

1952 Lighthouse Vintage Camper #4

One of only 8 known to exist in the world — built in Chicago in 1952, the Lighthouse Double Decker is the most extraordinary vintage camper at POV Resort. Two private upstairs loft bedrooms, mid-century décor, and a two-story design that no one else was bold enough to try. Sleep in a genuine piece of American history. Sleeps 6.

Unit Description

In 1952, the Lighthouse Company of Chicago built something no one had attempted before — a two-story travel trailer. Not a loft, not a bunk. Two full private bedroom levels, stacked, rolling down the American highway. It was the postwar boom at its most audacious: bigger, bolder, better. Today only 8 of these are known to exist anywhere in the world. You can sleep in one of them.

This fully renovated double-decker is curated in mid-century décor as part of POV Resort’s Living History Museum of Camping — America’s first. Upstairs: two private loft queen bedrooms. Downstairs: a full futon in the living area and a dining and food prep room — sleeping up to 6 total. No appliances or running water inside; bathhouse is nearby, cleaned 2–3 times daily. A changing room is provided for convenience. Outside: charcoal grill, hammock, Edison string lights, picnic table, and private firepit. Shared gas grill station with provided tanks in the campground. Basic electricity for lights, chargers, fans, CPAP machines, and low-draw appliances. Propane space heater provided — bring or purchase 1 lb canisters. Parking for two vehicles; overflow at the bathhouse.

NO PETS ALLOWED.

History of Camping - 1950s

One of only 8 known to exist — designed by Richard Ten Eyck, at the height of the Northwoods resort golden age.

By 1952, the US Forest Service hosted four million campers a year. Three in five American families owned a car, gas cost 20 cents, and Wisconsin’s Northwoods was in its golden age — Chicago families returning to the same lake, the same cabin, the same firepit, year after year. Into this world came the Lighthouse Duplex Trailer: designed by Richard Ten Eyck, built in Chicago, unlike anything before or since — 28 feet of trailer, 48 feet of living space, a patented central staircase, two private upstairs bedrooms. One of only 8 known to survive. Camping had never looked quite like this.

It’s 1961 and the Margarita is making its way north from Acapulco. This intimate vintage Wolfe camper is your escape to mid-century Mexico — festive fiesta décor, a hammock for two, and the kind of Northwoods evening that doesn’t need a passport. The perfect couples retreat or solo adventure. Sleeps 2.

Unit Description

In the early 1960s, Mexico was the dream destination — glamorous, colorful, impossibly romantic. Acapulco was where Hollywood came to play, the Margarita was sweeping American cocktail culture, and the fiesta spirit was irresistible. This 1961 Wolfe camper captures all of it, renovated and curated in vibrant mid-century Mexican décor as part of POV Resort’s Living History Museum of Camping — America’s first. Intimate, festive, and entirely its own world.

Inside: a queen bed, food prep area, and changing room — perfect for two. No appliances or running water; the bathhouse is nearby, cleaned 2–3 times daily. Outside: a large two-person hammock, charcoal grill, picnic table, private firepit, and Edison string lights. Shared gas grill station with provided tanks in the campground. Basic electricity for lights, chargers, fans, CPAP machines, and low-draw appliances. Propane space heater provided — bring or purchase 1 lb canisters.

History of Camping - 1960s

The decade camping doubled, the Interstates opened the continent, and Wisconsin’s Northwoods resorts reached peak generational tradition

By 1960, camping at national parks had doubled in a decade. The Interstate Highway System opened the continent, and trailers followed the asphalt everywhere. Wisconsin’s Northwoods resorts reached peak generational tradition — families who’d grown up coming north now returning with their own children, year after year. The Wolfe Fiesta and Siesta was built in this era of maximum mobility, when a trailer meant freedom to go anywhere, and some campers looked south to Mexico — for warmth, color, and a different kind of outdoor adventure than the pine forest offered.

#8 – 1949 Jim Dandy Vintage Camper & 1940s Luxury Tent

#image_title #separator_sa #attachment_caption

1947 Jim Dandy Vintage Camper 1940s Luxury Tent #8

It’s 1949 and the war is over. Soldiers came home, surplus canvas tents flooded the market, and Americans hit the Northwoods in droves for the first time. This site pairs a rare 1949 Jim Dandy vintage camper — the only one of its kind known to exist — with a companion 1940s luxury glamping tent, complete with the original owners’ photographs still inside. Two units, one decade, sleeps 6.

Unit Description

When World War II ended, America went camping. The same canvas tents that had sheltered soldiers were suddenly available at surplus stores for a few dollars — field-tested, durable, and cheap. Ex-military pilots became bush pilots flying canoeists into the Wisconsin wilderness. Paid vacations arrived. And families like the one who built this Jim Dandy packed up and headed north. This site pairs their actual camper — the only 1949 Jim Dandy known to exist, still bearing photographs of the couple who built and loved it — with a companion 1940s luxury glamping tent, together curated as part of POV Resort’s Living History Museum of Camping — America’s first.

The vintage Jim Dandy sleeps 2 on a full futon with a food prep area inside. Snug by design — that’s the authentic character of early American camping, and it’s the point. The companion 1940s luxury tent sleeps 4: a full memory foam bed with upscale bedding, two cots with luxury bedding, and charming period décor — dark inside for guests who love to sleep in.

History of Camping - 1940s

The only known surviving Jim Dandy — hand-built on a Model T, complete with original plans, receipts, and the couple who built it

World War II ended and Americans returned ready to move. For the first time, most employers offered paid vacations — and families drove an average of 600 miles, two weeks on the road. Wisconsin’s Northwoods resort industry boomed. This Jim Dandy Cabin Cruiser was hand-built by an American couple on a Model T chassis, using mail-order plans and a handwritten parts list. Their receipt — every item, every cost — hangs inside with their photograph. It is the oldest known surviving Jim Dandy. You’re not just camping in a vintage trailer. You’re camping inside someone’s life’s work.

#10 – 1920s Capone’s Luxury Tent (A-Frame Style)

#image_title #separator_sa #attachment_caption

1920s Capone's Luxury Tent #10 (A-Frame Style)

The island just off POV’s shore was owned by Al Capone’s doctor. Goons with tommy guns patrolled its outer shores. Gangsters hid out in these lakes during Prohibition, smuggling Canadian whisky south to Chicago. This A-frame luxury tent — the most secluded site in the campground — is decked out with historic Capone photographs and memorabilia. The lam never looked this good. Sleeps 6.

Unit Description

During Prohibition, the Wisconsin Northwoods were Al Capone’s backyard. The island just off POV Resort’s shore was owned by Capone’s personal physician, and it’s said that armed goons patrolled its outer shores while gangsters used these remote lakes to hide out and move Canadian whisky south to Chicago. The same lakes your kayak will cross tomorrow. This A-frame luxury tent — a replica of the canvas tents used in the 1920s and 30s, and perhaps on this very shoreline — is the most secluded glamping site at POV Resort, curated with historic photographs and Prohibition-era memorabilia as part of America’s first Living History Museum of Camping.

Private, wooded, and completely off the grid from the other campsites, it has a covered porch with a view deep into the forest — no neighbors in sight, just trees, stars, and the firepit glow. Inside: a queen bed and two full futons sleeping up to 6, plus a kitchen table. Outside: charcoal grill, hammock, tiki torches, two picnic tables, and a private firepit. Shared gas grill station with provided tanks in the campground. A POV Power Station powers phones, laptops, fans, CPAP machines, and low-draw appliances. Mulch ground cover — no mud. Propane space heater provided — bring or purchase 1 lb canisters. Parking for two vehicles; overflow at the bathhouse.

NO PETS ALLOWED.

History of Camping - 1920s

Capone’s Tent | Dillinger’s Tent | Baby Face Nelson’s Tent

By the 1920s, the automobile transformed American camping. Families drove to unmarked clearings, fastening tents to the chassis, rolling cots out on the forest floor. Wisconsin’s Northwoods became a destination of a different kind — Chicago’s most powerful gangsters found that remote lakes and pine forests offered something money couldn’t buy in the city: invisibility. Al Capone fished these waters. The island off POV’s shore was owned by a Capone associate. John Dillinger hid just miles from here. You’re sleeping in a replica of the tents they used — in the very woods they chose to disappear into.

1920s Dillinger's Luxury Tent #12 (A-Frame Style)

Tent sleeps 4, with space for a 2-person BYO sidecar tent. Sleeps 6 total on site.

Unit Description

John Dillinger knew what the gangsters knew: the Wisconsin Northwoods were the perfect place to disappear.

This A-frame luxury tent is a replica of the canvas tents used in the 1920s and 30s, curated with historic Dillinger photographs and Prohibition-era memorabilia as part of POV Resort’s Living History Museum of Camping — America’s first. One of the most secluded sites in the campground, with a covered porch overlooking deep forest and no neighboring campsites in sight.

Inside: a queen bed, full futon, and kitchen table sleeping up to 4. The site also has room for a 2-person BYO sidecar tent — sleeping 6 total.
