John provides a beautiful property to camp on, and a nice way to wrap a day of bike packing. The area is quiet and serene, with a beautiful sunset and sunrise. Having an outhouse, and stations with snacks and fresh water was very convenient. I will definitely camp here again if I'm bike packing in the area.

The location is very close to Goderich and the beach. We stayed one night but will rebook for longer periods next time. Melanie is nice and generous. She let us pick raspberries and gave us 2 zucchini’s to take home. Thank you for the warm welcome. Blessings, Aimee and Fernando

She went out of her way to make sure we had every comfort we needed—right down to helping us charge our phones. The campsite itself was beautiful, well-maintained, and thoughtfully equipped with clean washrooms, a defined path, table, and chairs. The setting was perfect for stargazing, enjoying a cozy bonfire, and simply relaxing in nature. Overall, it was a wonderful stay and we truly appreciate Melanie’s warmth and attention to detail.

If you are a bikepacker and you are riding the G2G (Guelph to Goderich trail) or you are anywhere close to Millbank... This is your place! The camping spot is basically beside/part of a resting area halfway of the G2G, which is managed by John and his family. Worth to mention: John is part of the board of directors of the G2G also which speaks about his commitment and dedication to his place and everything related with the G2G: lots of space to choose where to set your tent, toilet-water-shower-firewood available, easy to socialize with the (many) trail users, John is always ready to provide answers/suggestions to your requests... Moreover, you don't always have the chance to sleep beside a cemetery... Million thanks John!!

I’ve have come to Cardinals Nest twice and both times I have loved it. The cabin is beautiful and spacious, and hosts have all basic amenities you need in it. They also have started adding water jugs to the cabin which was super helpful. There is a nice stream for puppers to play in and a ton of room to roam/ hike. Cabins are spread out so you don’t feel cramped. Very highly suggest !

The best camping near Goderich with showers guide

Where to go

Point Farms Provincial Park

Point Farms Provincial Park sits on a bluff with stunning views overlooking the water. Set up camp at one of the pull-through sites for car camping, RVing, or tent camping with electrical hookups and a short walk from water taps, comfort stations, free WiFi, and laundry facilities. Boating, biking, and birding for yellow bellied sapsuckers and orioles give campers plenty to do. Campers who plan to hunt should make sure to snag a small game hunting license for year-round hunting in the area.

Falls Reserve Conservation Area

Almost entirely surrounded by a loop in the Maitland River, Falls Reserve is an exciting family camping experience with a gorgeous natural backdrop—small waterfalls pouring over rocks with swimming holes below. Watch birds migrate in spring and fall, or take a hike through the dense 300-year-old oaks. Many campsites at Falls Reserve’s three campgrounds feature fire pits, picnic tables, and electrical, hydro, and water hookups with sewer access. Campers can pay for a day use pass at Fall Reserve’s entryway gate autopay box, or get a park membership pass for visiting any time of year.

Goderich Lighthouse

Guiding ships to safety since 1847, Goderich Lighthouse has a unique square shape that beckons visitors and locals alike to picnic and view stunning sunsets from 100 steps high. Hikers will enjoy Viewpoint Trail, culminating in a collection of original, historical cottages. Camping near the lighthouse includes glamping options close to Maitland River and Lake Huron’s shores.

When to go

Camping season around Goderich begins in May with Victoria Day and runs to October. Summer months are a popular time for camping and outdoor recreation, with average temperatures topping out at 24°C. With days stretching longer into nights, staying during summer also means the area’s notable sunsets are visible longer. For smaller crowds and cooler temps, plan to visit in spring or fall.
