76km from Rideau Lakes · 2 sites · RVs · Belleville, ON
A quiet retreat for self-contained campers. Come for the stillness. Stay for the soul-soothing beauty. Tucked away in the rolling countryside of Stone Mills, Ontario, Salmon River Sanctuary is a peaceful private off-grid escape where nature does the talking. Nestled along the quiet banks of the Salmon River, our sites offer a simple, spacious place to reconnect- with yourself, with loved ones, and with the land. With little to no light pollution, nights here sparkle in the open skies for stargazing. *Sorry, there is currently no fire pits or fires. Bring your canoe, kayak, or just float along the river. If it's a hot dry summer you may need to access water deep enough, down the river. Or you can read or journal by the river or simply enjoy the sounds of birds and breeze. There is a flat, cleared area for self-contained vans or RV's with access to the river. It's currently a rustic, no-frills setup- please pack in and out and be prepared for a true nature stay. *Currently no toilet or drinking water on-site. You must be self contained - all septic and grey water must leave with you. No on-site dumping. Whether you're seeking a stop over between destinations, solitude, a romantic weekend under the stars, or a quiet base to explore the surrounding lakes and trails, Salmon River Sanctuary offers a return to what really matters. Simple. Serene. Yours to enjoy:)

Weekend Trip to Forest Creek Farm
Camping on Paul's property for the night was breathtaking. Being able to camp in a quiet, secluded area backing onto a beautiful creek was exactly what I needed. Paul was super friendly and welcoming. He showed us where the site was and even offered the cabin for us to sleep in. Plenty of wood was provided. I highly recommend this place - it's perfect! I'm definitely going back again.

We had a lovely time at bon echo tiny village. It's our first time here with our RV camper. The site was nice and clean and the facilities are well maintained. We were at site 44, which is in the forest lane. It was only a min walk from the office, washroom and pool. The staff was so friendly and lovely. We're about 5 min walk from the dock and had a great time kayaking!

Weekend Trip to Perth Camping by the River
This was our third time here this season and we love it so much we booked another trip next month! Sitting by the river with our coffee and a book has become our new favourite way to unwind after a busy week. Our kids love being able to swim and paddle board right off the site, and they are still in direct sight line! Plenty of space to set up multiple tents, and the dining shelter came in handy on a wet morning. Tons of shade but some sunny spots, too, ideal mix of spaces. There is a bit of poison ivy around the edges of the site so take a peek around to make sure you know where it is. This has quickly become our favourite family get away and we will be coming back again and again!

3 nights at Sheridan Rapids Kayaking/Lazy River
We stayed for 3 nights at this beautifully maintained site that had everything we needed: picnic table, fire pit, dock with chairs, and a paddle boat! The road wasn’t too busy, the area was quiet, and the water was the perfect temperature! It was a bit awkward fitting our 26ft trailer in through the trees but we made it work with where it was. We will definitely book again!

Camping close to Sheridan Rapids was alot of fun. Great swimming near the bridge. The lazy river float was super fun - if the water levels were a bit higher it woulda been perfect. Walk to the water was a bit longer than expected, but still less than 10 minutes along a quiet road. Ryan was responsive and helpful. Thanks again!

Great stay! The property is gorgeous, wide open, and rugged. Rustic and full of history, the barn turned brewery is truly a work of art. The owners were attentive and helpful, offering fresh water for our dogs and endless space to run around. The highlight was plenty of friendly conversation and recommendations for the area. They also handed us a few of their brews we took on our hike in Frontenac, since it's only minutes away. Frosty Mugginz was definitely our favorite. We’ll for sure be back for the scenery and beer.

Our second time here and it definitely didn't disappoint. Don's place is amazing. The river was just the right temperature, the wild life was everywhere, caught lots of fish, lost a lot of fish but that's fishing. Lol. This is one of our favorite spots to come. Absolutely privacy. We will be back next year for sure. Thanks Don for another unforgettable camping trip.

The dogs and I had a wonderful stay at the private site on the water! The signs into site were very easy to follow with lots of space to park and turn my large suv around. The outhouse is close to camp but also offers privacy. The site has a few places where tents can be pitched. Theres two ropes for clothes lines as well as a covered picnic table. In the dining area there is also a homemade cabinet with locks. The water has a small current but was very enjoyable to swim in and not cold this time of year. There is multiple size grills to cook over the fire and three muskoka chairs a small table and additional plastic chair. There is a small loop that you can walk to do something on the property. It is secluded to your site as the other ones aren't on the loop path. We look forward to booking again! Don was very easy to connect with and ask any questions with fast replies.

Lovely private tent spot by the Tay river. Don created a little piece of paradise for folks to unwind, paddle, fish, watch Blue Herons, turtles, beavers, waterfowl, birds, fire flies… you name it. Had two great days at the Stewart Park Festival (5 min drive to downtown Perth) and breathtaking morning paddles on the Tay. Bring mosquito repellent.

My fiancé and I were looking for a weekend getaway and this was the most perfect spot. It’s easily accessible, private, and you have your own dock, pedal boat, fire pit, and picnic table waiting for you. It’s the most perfect way to spend a sunny and warm summer weekend. Close drive to small quaint towns such as Carleton Place and Lanark where we explored cute shops. Not to mention the firefly light show that surrounds the campsite each night! Host was extremely responsive and so kind. We just got back today and have already recommended it to friends!

We can stop searching: we have found our favourite spot! 100% private, a perfect site with sun, shade, and direct water access. There is no one around and the only sounds are traffic in the distance and the odd train. The loudest part was the frog choir! Don was a fabulous host, easy to reach and very accommodating. Having a big jug of water and chairs there already (3 muskoka style chairs) were a plus. We have already booked two more stays for the summer!
