45km from Collingwood · 9 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging · Southgate, ON

This beautiful spot was re-forested with pine a number of years ago, and was sectioned off from the surrounding farmland, which is now maintained by the mennonite community. It is 8 1/2 acres of wetland and forest, with a mown perimeter, and cool places to tuck into the forest for the night. The current owner was a special educator, and now is slowly turning the land into her homestead. There is a beautiful, spa quality outdoor shower next to a tidy and 'fancier than most' outhouse, a strawberry patch as well as wild alpine strawberries all over the property, a big dog and a small indoor cat keep her company. Here is what the land offers: -Bunkie in the Forest: A sweet 8x8 ft. space with new bunk and mattresses as of April 2023 -Strawberry Fields bunkie: an 10x12 space with a loft with a queen memory foam mattress and a main floor with a full futon and a small table -Campsites: Meadow, Forest and River spots. Close to each other, but you'd never know it! All three are chill and serene places. The property backs onto a ten-foot swimming hole in an otherwise shallow part of the Saugeen River. -RV Spot: With electric hook up ideal for RVs 30 feet and under -a connection to the organization, 'Black Folks Camp Too'! Welcoming to all!!!!! So much to see and do in the area!

Welcome to Laurenwood Farm! New for 2024: Due to health reasons the farm is fallow this season. It is still a quiet, peaceful escape to the country and you can enjoy all of the amenities but there will be no veggie boxes this season and there are fewer animals to visit. We do have some items available such as honey and syrup. The farm is a 100-acre working livestock and organic mixed produce farm with picturesque views, miles of wooded trails, and a beautiful little fish pond. Fresh organic veggies and farm-fresh eggs are available seasonally. Guests are welcome to wander the trails, check out the pond and gardens, and have a guided tour to experience meeting the animals. Nearby are several conservation areas and access to the Bruce Trail. Walking, biking or horseback riding is very pleasant on the quiet country roads around. There are many local fairs and festivals in the surrounding villages, such as the Beeton Honey Festival and Tottenham Bluegrass Festival. We have three different listings, a cottage, a barn loft, and a tent/RV site. We look forward to hosting you!

34km from Collingwood · 11 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging · Tay, ON

Welcome to Cedar Creek Forest Camping! Voted second best campsite in Canada in 2021 and ranked number 2 in Ontario in 2022. I have 97 acres of very private camping. The forest is a bird watcher’s and nature lover’s paradise. I have developed miles of flat groomed trails and a 3-acre pond (plus several bush ponds). The sites are spread around the pond and are close but not right beside it. There is an abundant amount of wildlife to explore: birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, insects and mammals call this home. There is a small swimming hole on the island but otherwise the pond is full of aquatic life. The sites and trails are maintained all year long and the forest is quiet and beautiful. I have planted over 3000 trees with the help of the Severn Sound Environmental Association. The forest is registered as a managed woodlot with the province and habitat preservation/restoration is the priority goal. Please DO NOT bring firewood for your visit. I have large bags of cured firewood that was sustainable harvested from the forest available. Invasive insects and disease can be transferred from imported wood. Guests are welcome to quietly explore the forest trails but are asked to stay on the trail. Many birds and animals nest in the forest. My campsite is family-friendly (and pet-friendly), and 420 friendly too. Guests can easily drive up to and park at all campsites. My camp site is tolerant and respectful of all humans, animals and things. The Yurtle structures were built from Hemlock trees that were cut from this forest and processed into boards, then engineered into unique camping huts. Large windows capture the glory of the surrounding forest and sun sets, while wood stoves warm campers on those cold days/nights. Guests are asked to remove excessive garbage and recycling when possible. Thanks for viewing and visiting, cheers and peace, Dave

Ivan’s land is immediately comforting and relaxing. The open spaces are soothing to the eye and spirit, and he knows how to let people enjoy it without imposing and also when to check in. As I left, I already missed the place, and started planning my next trip back.

Wow, now we understand why the reviews are flawless… because this site truly is perfect. We stayed at the Dam Spot for two nights and loved every single minute. The site was private, beautifully maintained with neatly mowed grounds, spotless, and just steps from the river. There’s something magical about waking up, opening the door of your camper, and being greeted with that stunning view right outside. It’s the kind of experience that instantly relaxes you and makes you never want to leave. Angela and her husband were so warm and welcoming when they stopped by with their pups, and our dog loved the visit too! We absolutely look forward to returning as soon as we can, it’s a little piece of paradise.

I loved camping with my Grand Caravan on Ivan‘s land at The Hive site. It was easy to access yet very peaceful. A great sunrise and sunset full of nature sounds. It’s a sunny site but perfect for going off to one of the Georgian Bay beaches during the hottest times of day. When I arrived Ivan also said I could camp further back in the fields if I wished. Ivan was friendly and helpful and there were wonderful fresh berries for sale. Everything was as described or as shown in the pictures.

Weekend Trip to Beaver Ranch

We had a lovely weekend at the Dam site at Angela and Luke’s farm with our travel trailer and pup. Very beautiful spot and lots of sun for our solar panels, crisp clean river to cool off in and lots of entertainment from the tubers going down the river. It was a long weekend so extra busy. Fire pit and great wood for purchase. We hiked in Allan Park conservation area and stopped in at a great micro brewery close by for a drink and bite. A picnic table would make this spot absolute perfection. Thanks to Angela, Luke, kids, and Nora and Lake the doggos for welcoming us, we will be back : )

We stayed at the dam site and wow, it didn't disappoint. It was our first time staying at Beaver Ranch and we would come back in a heartbeat. Angela came down to greet us when we arrived which was lovely. It was such a beautiful spot to just enjoy nature and relax. It was so hot during our stay being by the water was a huge bonus. It was fun watching the tubers coming down the river. Our 10 month old water loving lab had an amazing time swimming in the water while we relaxed in our chairs. We would definitely recommend and return to this beautiful spot.

Love camping in my tent over the weekend on Ivan’s property. He let me freely choose the site as long as I kept off the plowed areas which worked out really great for me. Neighborhood is nice and quiet. The lake and city is not too far away with hardware stores and restaurants. Will definitely come back in the near future

It was such a pleasure to be back at the “Dam Spot”. It’s been 3 years since our last visit and was just as amazing as the first visit. Angela and Luke made us feel like family,,, in a good way!!! Lol. My sister and brother-in-law joined us there with their camper and fell in love with the “Spot” too. We had some very hot weather, so it was nice to jump in the river and cool off, and Bailey our faithful companion spent a lot of time in it as well, cooling herself off. Setting the lawn chairs in the river was also very relaxing. This spot is quiet, relaxing, beautiful and the river beside you, can’t be beat!!!! Thanks again Angela and Luke!!! We’ll be back!!!
