Juniper Rock Forest Camping

53km from Belleville · 1 site · Tent · Kaladar, ON

Learn more about this land:Hello, campers! We have a wilderness campsite on 112 acres of pristine Canadian Shield in a dense forest. Our home is located on the acreage however you can choose your own magical spot. Please note that if coming from the city - you will experience a lot of mosquitoes and other forest life. Bug repellent and mosquito or gazebo tents are excellent items to bring to protect from bugs. This is NOT a glamping site, and ZERO amenities are provided. That means you need to know how to go to the bathroom in the woods, bring your own water, and camp stove.There is a great video by Recreational Equipment, Inc. (REI) on youtube to help you with going to the bathroom if you are unfamiliar. I also have the link if you need it. Kaladar is a small hamlet located at County Road 41 and Highway 7, otherwise known as The Lost Highway. Once upon a time, there was The Kaladar Hotel at the corner, with an interesting history. Now there is a general store with necessities, including groceries, gifts, gas, and more. Campfires are permitted, pets are welcome!

Salmon River Sanctuary

43km from Belleville · 2 sites · RVs · Belleville, ON

A quiet retreat for self-contained campers. Come for the stillness. Stay for the soul-soothing beauty. Tucked away in the rolling countryside of Stone Mills, Ontario, Salmon River Sanctuary is a peaceful private off-grid escape where nature does the talking. Nestled along the quiet banks of the Salmon River, our sites offer a simple, spacious place to reconnect- with yourself, with loved ones, and with the land. With little to no light pollution, nights here sparkle in the open skies for stargazing. *Sorry, there is currently no fire pits or fires. Bring your canoe, kayak, or just float along the river. If it's a hot dry summer you may need to access water deep enough, down the river. Or you can read or journal by the river or simply enjoy the sounds of birds and breeze. There is a flat, cleared area for self-contained vans or RV's with access to the river. It's currently a rustic, no-frills setup- please pack in and out and be prepared for a true nature stay. *Currently no toilet or drinking water on-site. You must be self contained - all septic and grey water must leave with you. No on-site dumping. Whether you're seeking a stop over between destinations, solitude, a romantic weekend under the stars, or a quiet base to explore the surrounding lakes and trails, Salmon River Sanctuary offers a return to what really matters. Simple. Serene. Yours to enjoy:)

Weekend Trip to 29-Acre Artistic Forest Retreat

Natalie and Seth's barn was overall a great experience! We enjoyed all the extras that were provided to us: entertainment system, well stocked kitchen, etc. The art pieces were also a nice addition too. We all slept great and warm. Our only complaint would be that the toilet smell was a little difficult to tame for us. The sawdust helped a bit but still had a faint smell in the downstairs living space so we had to vent out the barn every few hours to get some fresh air. Hope to come back soon! Thanks Natalie and Seth!

I recommend this place to anyone wanting seclusion and beauty. The price was also right for what we got and loved the cabin and fire place as well. P.S you got a very nice solar unit! Thank you!

Beautiful land. Great trails. Easy access from the road. Good amenities on site. I didn't expect propane and fire wood to be included in the rental, so I was very pleasantly surprised.

Our favourite favourite hip camp we have stayed at in Ontario. Host was super friendly and beyond accommodating. This farm is a beautiful quiet oasis. If you love star gazing, bonfires and a woodfired hot tub this is your place.

Weekend Trip to Cabin in the Woods

A beautiful, serene place to unplug and unwind. The fall colours were lovely and Natalie is truly the most thoughtful host. The bird watching is excellent and a cozy meal by the fire…perfection. Thanks again, Natalie!

Weekend Trip to Cabin in the Woods

Natalie's bunkie is a truly magical place! The cabin itself is so cozy and thoughtfully provisioned with everything you could need all season round, from practical supplies like cutlery and cookware and a wood-burning stove to keep you warm on cool autumn nights to board games and paperback books and even a portable DVD player for makeshift movie screenings, if you can peel your eyes away from the view of the starry night sky. The bunkie sits on a scenic body of water and a waterfall that make for great canoeing and swimming or admiring over morning coffee, and the rest of Natalie's property is bursting with whimsical art installments as well as gardens, fire pits, fairy lights, and fields of flowers. My partner and I have visited twice - in the summer and the in the fall - and have found each season and each stay so uniquely gorgeous and relaxing. If you are looking for a place to retreat from the noise of the world, the bunkie is perfect. Natalie is so warm and welcoming and has put so much care and attention into providing people with a home away from home.

Weekend Trip to Organic Flower Farm

Another fantastic camp stay at this beautiful farm! We loved our new spot on the property just as much as the last one. From the moment we arrived, the hosts welcomed us back with open arms, making us feel right at home. The magic of this place is all thanks to the incredible hosts who treat every guest like family. We had a great time visiting with the farm animals and enjoying the peaceful atmosphere of their barn. The provided firewood was a thoughtful touch that made our nights around the campfire so much easier. The amenities are excellent; the outhouse was impeccably clean, and the dishwashing station made cleanup a breeze. This is truly a special place! <3

This location was everything and more that was described. The lot was bigger than expected and the setup was amazing. While it was just the 2 of us there were many little spots within our site to sit and take in the nature around us. From the bumble bees to the massive amount of birds to the amazing beaver. The spot was very well stocked. We definitely over packed. My only complaint was we weren't there long enough. We will definitely be going back.
