I’m truly glad I discovered this place. My friends and I found so much more than we expected. The Mitziville team was incredibly welcoming and accommodating — thanks to them, I was able to organize a surprise birthday celebration for my husband and bring together our big group of friends.
We were absolutely thrilled with our spot: a spacious area with several fire pits, a provided toilet, and picnic tables. It felt private and peaceful since the nearby sites were set far apart. It’s one of those rare moments when you stumble upon a hidden gem. The nature was stunning, and the grounds were beautifully maintained.
We’ll definitely be back — our group has been looking for a place like this for a long time

First time here and the host was very welcoming. We picked a spot close to the water but there was no car access to the site so we had to change it at the last minute. The host was very accommodating and made the changes without any issue. We like the site we chose and would come back again.

Compared to most campground sites this is a nice private spot. The quiet river makes a beautiful view and I appreciated the free kayak available with the site. Check in was easy and friendly. There is a public area beside the site which meant there are occasionally people near by but it wasn’t a problem. At other times it was very quiet.

Lisa's property was amazing! Lots of room, beautiful view of everything. Saw deer every day! Loved the outhouse, we are used to privies at Algonquin but the outhouse was way better - especially with the rain we had. She was great with communication and even checked to make sure we were ok after a big gusty windy rainy period of time. We will definitely be back! Thanks so much Lisa.

This was one of our favourite Hipcamps. The lake was busier than we are used to but it was a long weekend so totally expected. We appreciated the private feel of the campsite being nestled in our little corner and we customized the site with tarp shelters and a hammock to lay about in the afternoons. The night sky was gorgeous with the moon and the sound of waves to keep us company. One should keep in mind that there are elevation changes at the site that could prove challenging for some. I was able to portage our canoe down to the water and back up to our vehicle but the pitch through the trees and down to the beach could prove tricky. Overall, we liked the secluded, civilized-rustic feel of the space: not Crown Land but sounds of the forest gave it a wild feel.

We loved camping at Mitziville'sland. It was our 2nd time this summer. The camp sites are big enough for 2,3 tents. Our kids love the beach and water activities. ( kayaks, paddle boats included) There is also nice trails for hiking.
Shower on site. About 30 min away from Huntsville.. Definitely recommend and we'll be back.

Lisa was super friendly, communicative, responsive and welcoming before and during our stay! The site and surrounding fields, forest and lake were spectacular and we had the entire grounds to ourselves. Couldn’t have made a better first impression and the site was beyond our expectations. Will highly recommend to others in the future.

Our stay at the Robyn's nest was very enjoyable! Ronald and Robyn are great, friendly hosts that have maintained a beautiful property. Not only have they provided a fully functional washroom on site, but they take the time to clean it regularly. There are also many things to do nearby. We will definitely be back to spend more time here!

Great spot to camp. Great hosts !
Easy directions. Flat site to camp on after a short steep hill access.
Deer, wild turkeys, loon & more
Right across the road from a beach where you can swim and a white water racecourse where you can watch people playing, and or racing in the rapids.
A clean washroom as well.
I short drive in to town makes it one of the best places I’ve camped.
Thank you, Robyn & Ronald !

My family and I loved camping at Mitziville by the Lake. We loved it so much that we went twice this summer because we enjoyed it so much. The beach is walking distance to the camp site and the water was very warm both times we went! The campground is very taken care of and the service for garbage pick up was great. The beach is also very clean, lots of seats and canopy's free to use and not to mention the canoe/kayaks are all free to use! Everyone is very courteous with these as well.
One down fall I will mention is that there are "no rules" here so if you are going with small children expect there to be noise. Both times we went there were large parties going on with very loud music until about 4 am. My kids were fine with it but some may not, so be cautious when booking. This is not a very private campground as the sites are cramped together and not very large but we have no issues with that. I would suggest if you are looking for a more private and quiet camping experience to look elsewhere or to check out their other sites that they offer which are look very private.
10/10 recommend, my family and I will be back next year and can't wait! We already know exactly which site we will be booking!!!

We had a really good time camping here. There's another site but it's not close enough that you can hear or see them. We enjoyed being able to take our kayaks out into the lake although we didn't catch a single fish or even see life in the lake.

What a treasure! From such a warm welcome by Ronald and his wife, the beauty of the land that we camped on and the raved about bathrooms (yes they are soo clean!)
Hubby and I wanted to stay longer as this HipCamp is nested between Horseshoe Lake and Minden's Wild Water Preserve- literally at the end of the driveway!
Lots of activities /games available on property for you to use at your leisure.
The ambiance from the rapids was dreamy
We will be making another visit soon!

The best waterside camping near Gravenhurst guide
Where to go
Lake Muskoka
Surrounded by charming cottages and campsites, Lake Muskoka is known for coldwater swimming and steam-boat cruises. Dive into the lake for a swim or take out a canoe, kayak, or jet ski. Anglers can set up for fishing—the lake is home to trout, largemouth bass, and walleye. Walk along Huckleberry Rock Lookout Trail around the lake. Winter campers can also snowboard and ski in designated areas like Gravenhurst Nordic. Nearby campgrounds and RV parks with electric and water hookups make it easy to access the lake (some are situated on the lake itself). Many feature equipment rentals and supply shops as well.
Jevins and Silver Lake Conservation Reserve
Jevins and Silver Lake Conservation Reserve brims with ponds, wetlands, and bogs as well as rare flora and fauna like the five-lined skink—the province’s only native lizard. It also features the Jevins and Silver Lake Trail that’s popular with hikers and backpackers who want to explore red oak and white pine forests. In winter, the trail is used for snowmobiling.
Hardy Lake Provincial Park and Trail
Hardy Lake Provincial Park is full of forested landscapes, lakes, and trails, like its popular three-mile Hardy Lake Loop Trail. It is moderately challenging with its descents and steep ascents, but the effort is worth it to see outcrops and sprawling lake views. Camping is not permitted in the park, but there are nearby campsites and RV parks that have amenities like electric and water hookups. Look for year-round cabin rentals near the park too.
When to go
Gravenhurst is great for camping year-round—though peak season runs from late spring through early fall. Spring temperatures in Gravenhurst range between 0–20°C. Many campers like to visit in September to attend local harvest festivals and enjoy warmer weather averaging around 18°C. Although campers will find a quieter woodland scene during winter, there’s still plenty to enjoy like skiing and snowmobiling. Winter temperatures range from -15–2°C.
