Weekend Trip to Collinswood Retreat
Gives a vive that you are actually in a jungle inside of a tree house. There is a bus turned into a cabin, which will remind you of the movie “into the wild”. Great experience overall.

Weekend Trip to Collinswood Retreat
Staying in Poppy was a very pleasant experience! We arrived late, in the dark. We were struggling to find our spot (albeit, I did not look at the instructions carefully). Pat came to find us at the entrance, and helped escort us to our stay.
They also provided some extra water (due to the water line being shut off because of cold temps) a heater and some heating bottles to keep us warm. The location is very beautiful, with some cool amenities available throughout the grounds.
All in all, Geri & Pat are very welcoming, thoughtful and we would love to rent out the whole grounds in the future!
Thanks again!

Weekend Trip to Collinswood Retreat
Loved poppy bus, had a great experience living in here as it is my dream to eventually do this. Enjoyed how there was so many hiking trails everywhere. We spent an hour or more looking and exploring. The whole place here is so much to take in. I especially loved interacting with the friendly horses. I plan to bring my extended family next spring.

1 night at The Secret Sanctuary
An amazing private, quiet and clean hidden gem. Denika and her family were more than amazing and hospitable. The aspen tent is well equipped and very neat.
I’m adding this spot to my favourite list and encouraging everyone to catch a break at this place.

We really enjoyed camping here for our friends 30th! The bus was really awesome and a great theme for a little weekend getaway. The property is fun to explore with many nice little trails to walk down, and the view of the stars at night was fantastic on a clear night. Thanks Pat & Geri for a great weekend!

We loved our stay at Rosebud Cafe! Such a cozy place with a stunning view. It has everything you need for a comfortable camping experience. The hosts are super helpful, and you can really feel that they love what they do and truly care about their guests. Thank you so much — we’ll definitely be coming back!

Great experience! Very helpful and kind. I really liked how they set up the toilet with a sink nearby, so convenient! The llama and the dog they have were absolutely lovely as well.

This was my second time camping here and I think it’s officially my favourite campground. :) Geri and Pat are so welcoming, plus the sites are private with beautiful surroundings. This morning I saw the horses coming through the property too which was a huge bonus! With the Bowden Sunmaze close by, not to mention that this site comes with a bundle of firewood and water, I can’t recommend this place enough. With winter coming soon I hope to plan a weekend in the treehouse or other buildings soon!

Our hosts were very accommodating! We stayed at Woodbend for the night. It came with a bundle of wood, campfire pit, hammock and an abundance of property to explore! There is so much to see while walking around from the horses to the unique cottage/sleeping accommodations!
I would recommend their place to anyone who is looking for a beautiful place to unwind while travelling!
Thank you again for everything 💖

This is, I believe, my fourth stay! It's a magical place that I look forward to visit every year. The Happy Hut and Treehouse are so cozy, every little detail is thought of and you are looked after so well! The trails are amazing for long walks, the views spectacular, loved meeting the horses again this year. And Geri's massages are a must! See you again in 2026!

We loved camping at the Secret Sanctuary! We brought our own glamping and got the breakfast delivered to your site as an add on. Absolutely delicious! The whole experience and vibe of this place is really something special. We were looking for a getaway close to the city that offered privacy (which is hard to find these days) and were not disappointed. We want to bring the whole family next time we come! The hot shower and compost toilets were great, the trails and nearby lakes were awesome for exploring, and Denika and her family were so friendly and helpful. 5 stars! Also make sure to check out the store for amazing salves, delicious teas, and cute pottery!

The weekend was wonderful. The glamping tent was beautiful and the bed was cozy warm. The morning breakfast was amazing. We enjoyed sitting around the campfire being visited by a llama! We walked the trails and hugged a tree. Great time. Thankyou you Denika and family.

My family of 5 stayed at the Shady Nook for 2 nights. Our campsite is huge, more than plenty of space for my younger kid do play in , very peivate. Lots of space to walk around the place. We played basketball, volleball and frisby. We saw horses in the area. The washroom was cool. My 5 year old always had fun while in there. He would wear the crown everytime we use the bathroom. My daughter and I enjoyed the sauna and the hot shower with a view. My daughter told me before we left that she is going book on a weekend in October as a birthday gift for herself. She wants to do the sauna again and the massage. We noticed that there were only a few mosquitos and we weren't slapping ourselves trying to kill them unlike other campgrounds we went to and we've been to many. Also, the hosts are friendly, approachable and easy to contact. I would recommend this place 100%.
