Weekend Trip to Meech Creek Falls
Neil has a great place 30 minutes away from Gatineau! U get plenty of privacy on his property. We've enjoyed the sound of the water crrek at night. There is a wood heater inside the tent so the temperature was not too cold in mid october. There is a grocery store 5 min from the camp.... Very convinient. Would recommend!

We found Burkes Barnyard on TikTok and were very excited to visit. Everything was exactly as advertised. Beautiful clean sites, wonderful hosts, farm fresh eggs available, and the animals are so much fun with chickens and ducks wandering through our campsite. Everything was perfect and we will be returning in a few weeks.

3 nights at Meech Creek Falls
This is a sweet little spot. The waterfall and river are epic. Loved relaxing in the comfortable hammock too. The glamping tent is spacious and well kept with a comfortable bed and all the extra bedding one might need. It’s nice to have the shaded outdoor sitting area that’s screened in. We did not use the sauna, but the shower is ice cold- just a heads up- no warm water. The tap water is excellent drinking water. The compost toilet situation is about what you’d expect- definitely no frills. While the fridge and laundry did not work at the time we were there, Neil was accommodating by providing daily ice and offering his machine. He was very responsive to all communication and overall we enjoyed our stay.

We had a great time tent camping! Such a cute and unique place to stay. The farm stand and goodies for sale/rent were great additions. We loved feeding the animals and walking the trail on the property.

From the moment we arrived at Burks Barns Barnyard Camping, Melissa and Gary made us feel like part of the family. Gary greeted us with a warm smile and a welcome jar of honey from his very own bee farm — such a thoughtful touch!
They went above and beyond to make our stay special, especially for our 6-year-old. Gary took the time to give him a close-up introduction to the farm animals, which absolutely made his day. Watching him light up while meeting the animals — from the friendly pigs to the curious chickens and proud roosters — was an unforgettable memory for us all.
The campsites were spotless, well-kept, and thoughtfully equipped with little extras for our comfort, making our stay as relaxing as it was fun.
If you’re looking for a camping getaway with genuine hospitality, beautiful surroundings, and a true taste of farm life, look no further. We can’t wait to come back again!

1 night at Meech Creek Falls
Meech Creek Falls is our new favourite getaway! Neal is a wonderful host, very friendly with a detailed tour to help us feel at home and make best use of the space. Very private and quiet, with amenities that are as creative and charming as they are convenient. We loved how easy it was to spend almost every moment out of doors enjoying the beautiful surroundings. This is a setup where you won't have to worry too much about the weather, as it would be quite adaptable to different conditions. The waterfall is not just beautiful but tons of fun to climb and explore, with a few great spots to wade in for a swim and sunny banks to rest on. Tent was cozy and clean with a comfortable mattress. Sleeping to the noise of the falls cannot be beat. We will be back for sure!

My son and I loved camping on Sarah’s land with our family over the weekend . we were at campsite two it was absolutely mesmerizing. The directions were very clear that you can’t get lost on which campsite is where. They have an amazing variety of things at their farm stand. And the fact that you get chickens and roosters to come right up to you and have a personal interaction with them at your campsite is amazing it was one of my son’s favorite parts being there over the weekend and going from absolutely terrified of them once we first got there to 10 minutes later being one with the chickens😂. There were other campsites with other amazing people. My son got to make some amazing memories with other kids at the campsite next to us. And the fact when it’s night the stars are absolutely beautiful to look at while having a smore over the campfire. And the fact you can sesh at your campsite without any worry’s about the kiddos being up your butt the whole time, they were on there own little adventures through either there wood path or going into the inclosure to take a look at their ducks, turkeys & their pigs pumpkin and Louis definitely an opportunity for the kids to have a one on one interaction with them . We’re definitely coming back next year for more adventures to come !

It's private, beautiful and you will have everything you need from wood for the fire to fresh eggs. I was gifted a jar of honey when I got there and all my questions were answered very fast, as I had never been to the area before. I would and will go back in a heartbeat! Beautiful place and hosts.

Had such a wonderful glamping trip here with my son and puppy! The site had everything we needed, it’s clear how much care and love has gone into creating and maintaining this beautiful place. The sound of the creek running by all day and night was soo peaceful, and we all slept very well. There’s also lots to do in the area, making it a perfect little getaway when you want to escape the city without going too far. Ten out of ten recommend to anyone looking for a cozy, relaxing, and memorable stay!

The best camping near Renfrew with horseback riding guide
Where to go
Algonquin Provincial Park
One of the oldest protected public parks in the world, Algonquin Provincial Park is home to more than 2,400 lakes, 750 miles of rivers and streams, 14 interpretive trails, and eight campgrounds. Whether car camping at one of the popular family-friendly RV sites or canoe camping in the backcountry, this is an exceptional destination for fishing, hiking, wildlife viewing, and birdwatching.
Bonnechere Caves
This unique geological feature is one of the best sights in the area. The caves were formed by the power of the Bonnechere River over thousands of years and now feature funky rock formations and mesmerizing underground waterfalls. Visits are by guided tour only from spring to autumn. Those visiting in early October might spot bats getting into position for early hibernation.
Bon Echo Provincial Park
Bon Echo Provincial Park offers one of the most unique attractions of any Ontario provincial park, home to Mazinaw Lake and its surrounding rugged cliffs, which feature ancient Indigenous pictographs. Campers can take boat tours to see them up close and then hike to the top of the cliffs for an incredible view of the lake. The park also has excellent swimming, fishing, canoeing, kayaking, and biking.
When to go
Most provincial parks and outdoor attractions near Renfrew operate on a seasonal basis, from mid-May to mid-October. Campers should note that evenings can be pretty cold in May and June, and again in September and October. The mosquitoes and blackflies of Algonquin Provincial Park are legendary in their ferocity in late spring and early summer. Renfrew’s annual Renfrew Fair in September brings live music, carnival rides, and livestock showcases to town, while early October is the best time to admire the autumn colors around Algonquin (which gets very busy with weekend daytrippers).
