Established in 1870 as a mixed farm for new immigrants to Canada to settle and begin their new life in Canada. In the early days the farm housed dairy cattle and pigs.

Our family purchased the farm in 1998 to raise our daughters. The farm is located beside Trish's home farm, where she was a dairy farmers daughter growing up. Dean was raised on a beef farm. Dean & Trish meet in University studying agriculture. We began a beef business, and marketed our farm products through our website, www.whisperingmeadows.ca until we sold it to a young couple in 2016. Dean & I care about the land and the environment very much. Over the years we have have worked with the local conservation organization to plant treed wind erosion areas, improve farm drainage and grow crops using no-till practices. In 2010 we were awarded the Pasture Conservation Award by the Canadian Cattlemen Association. We take great pride in our farm and ensure it is managed using the best farm practices available.

We had such a wonderful stay at Shiloh Barn! Jess and Mark were amazing hosts — super kind, welcoming, and always available if we needed anything. The glamping tent was clean, cozy, and had everything we could possibly need — utensils, washroom, tissues, even little touches that made it feel really comfortable. The barn loft upstairs with the string lights was adorable and such a nice place to unwind. We had a great time barbecuing, sitting by the fire pit, and stargazing late into the night. It was peaceful, romantic, and such a refreshing break from city life. Thank you, Jess and Mark, for sharing your beautiful place with us and making our stay so special. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet and relaxing getaway! Would you like me to make it slightly shorter (Airbnb’s review box often cuts off around 500–700 characters in the preview)?

Weekend Trip to Shiloh Barn Glamping

This was our second attempt to camp at Shiloh Barn. We needed to cancel our previous booking due to a family matter. Jessica was 100% helpful during the cancelation and rebooking process with me. Thankfully, we rebooked for this weekend. The weather was amazing. The property is beautiful. Well taken care of. Lots of amenities and nice touches for glamping so there isn't too much that you need to pack. The glamping area with the barn and large tent is at the back of the property. Very spacious area that you have all to yourself. Clean, well tended too, and extremely private. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely like to return. Thanks for being great hosts. Our only suggestion would be a picnic table, but we adapted by carrying out the small table at the barn to enjoy the beautiful weather.

This was a great experience for us and our 2 month old! Our first family camping trip was made much easier by the stocked kitchen, bbq, and a real bed - and the space feels very private. It was certainly cold at night this time of year but lots of blankets available and also made for way less bugs than we were expecting. We went hiking at Starkey Hill close by (free) which is a spot we know and love. Our host was very helpful and responsive and this trip made me feel so grateful people like Jess and Mark share their beautiful and well maintained property with others. I would consider a longer stay in future if there was a shower or a good lake for swimming nearby (not exactly something they can account for, Guelph lake is around but we don’t love swimming in it) but this was perfect for a couple of nights away from all the screens. And new scenery for our baby to cry in LOL. Thanks!

The best camping near Concord with horseback riding guide

Where to go

Boyd Conservation Area

The Boyd Conservation Area is a true urban oasis. Located within the headwaters of the Don and Humber rivers, the park boasts over 300 acres of natural habitats. This family-friendly spot offers picnic sites, hiking, fishing, and birdwatching. Leashed pets are welcome.

Kortright Centre for Conservation

Home to Ontario’s leading center for sustainable education and events, the Kortright Centre features over 800 acres of forest, meadows, wetlands, and wildlife. Visitors can head out on a guided nature walk, participate in educational programming (like naturalist certifications in the study of reptiles, birds, and insects), and attend special events for children and seniors.

Sibbald Point Provincial Park

Less than an hour north of Concord, Sibbald Point is a full-service provincial park with ample camping options, hiking, swimming, biking, and an interpretive trail. Pick radio-free campground for a true urban escape in summer, or try skiing or snowshoeing in winter.

Milne Dam Conservation Park

The Milne Dam Conservation Park was once home to a mill, a dam, and a thriving business community. Today, it’s a must-visit urban park that is well-regarded for birdwatching. Blue herons, woodpeckers, chickadees, blue jays, and mallards are spotted daily around the many hiking trails and picnic spots.

When to go

Expect large crowds around Concord during summertime weekends and special holidays, including Canada Day. The day-use facilities at Sibbald Point Provincial Park are especially crowded during long weekends and summer, so you must book your spot in advance. Concord-area parks and conservation sites offer limited services throughout winter, but many are open for skiers and snowshoers. It’s best to confirm opening hours before you go.
