Heavens Acres has been a stop over since the 1850's for people travelling by horse from Toronto to Owen Sound. We have 100 acres surrounded by another 200 acres of conservation land. There is camping in the pine forest as well at the very back of the property where you will find a hardwood bush with trails. Please note that the hipcamp map shows a large body of water on the property, as does google driving maps. It is a marsh, not a lake. Google Earth shows it better. There is however, a creek and pond, but don't bring your boat. :) This is a "LEAVE NO TRACE" campsite, so please take all garbage when you leave.

This beautiful spot was re-forested with pine a number of years ago, and was sectioned off from the surrounding farmland, which is now maintained by the mennonite community. It is 8 1/2 acres of wetland and forest, with a mown perimeter, and cool places to tuck into the forest for the night. The current owner was a special educator, and now is slowly turning the land into her homestead. There is a beautiful, spa quality outdoor shower next to a tidy and 'fancier than most' outhouse, a strawberry patch as well as wild alpine strawberries all over the property, a big dog and a small indoor cat keep her company. Here is what the land offers: -Bunkie in the Forest: A sweet 8x8 ft. space with new bunk and mattresses as of April 2023 -Strawberry Fields bunkie: an 10x12 space with a loft with a queen memory foam mattress and a main floor with a full futon and a small table -Campsites: Meadow, Forest and River spots. Close to each other, but you'd never know it! All three are chill and serene places. The property backs onto a ten-foot swimming hole in an otherwise shallow part of the Saugeen River. -RV Spot: With electric hook up ideal for RVs 30 feet and under -a connection to the organization, 'Black Folks Camp Too'! Welcoming to all!!!!! So much to see and do in the area!

Tolkien readers know that Grey Havens is actually the last chapter of the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy. We embrace Tolkien's imagination. Readers and writers especially like our lakefront property. We especially encourage writers and readers looking for retreat. We facilitate relaxation and inspiration. Starting with our Little Free Library, each accommodation has a unique small Library inside . We have quiet, segregated spaces inside or outside for writing or reading. You can even purchase works by the host/author onsite. But we are not just about books. We also encourage water recreation activities: swimming, fishing, kayaking, canoeing. We have a free boat launch for your watercraft. We are on a small biologically special kettle lake, the source of the Styx River. Our lake water is flushed with cool underground water. For a description of the geology and biology of lake, consider the "Townsend Lake Cruise" on our unique eVessel, Swizzle Styx (book in the "Extras"). There is plenty of County Forest and Bruce Trailhead hiking opportunities also nearby. On our property are the following amenities: +Car parking (1/site; free) +Motorcycle friendly parking pads for touring riders (Free) +Wireless access (Free) +Spacious outdoor Privy used by all on site campers (All Free) +Dock and canoe/kayak launch (bring your own canoes/kayaks) +Patio/deck (20'x25') with fire circle, chairs and tables (burn only locally sourced wood by booking a "Firewood Bundle" OR a "Butane Cook Stove" in the "Extras") +A "Gear Wagon" (book in the "Extras") to transport your luggage, tents, gear and/or coolers from the car to the site you have booked. (And again on your way out also). Hip Campers have often asked for fire starting help. We recommend First Time/Novice Hip Campers consider the "Fire Workshop" extra. You get a "Firewood Bundle" a kit of firestarters and patient instruction on starting your first campfire. Grey Havens is waste wise: remove your garbage and cleanup your site to get up to $10 cleaning fee returned. Grey Havens was the final chapter in Tolkien's trilogy. We continue creating a paradise here. Hip Campers may wonder about the whale bench seen in many of our photographs. Ask your host about the story of our Whale Bench.

Tolkien Fantasy At Grey Havens

97%
(35)
52km from Saugeen Shores · 7 sites · Lodging · Markdale, ON
Tolkien readers know that Grey Havens is actually the last chapter of the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy. We embrace Tolkien's imagination. Readers and writers especially like our lakefront property. We especially encourage writers and readers looking for retreat. We facilitate relaxation and inspiration. Starting with our Little Free Library, each accommodation has a unique small Library inside . We have quiet, segregated spaces inside or outside for writing or reading. You can even purchase works by the host/author onsite. But we are not just about books. We also encourage water recreation activities: swimming, fishing, kayaking, canoeing. We have a free boat launch for your watercraft. We are on a small biologically special kettle lake, the source of the Styx River. Our lake water is flushed with cool underground water. For a description of the geology and biology of lake, consider the "Townsend Lake Cruise" on our unique eVessel, Swizzle Styx (book in the "Extras"). There is plenty of County Forest and Bruce Trailhead hiking opportunities also nearby. On our property are the following amenities: +Car parking (1/site; free) +Motorcycle friendly parking pads for touring riders (Free) +Wireless access (Free) +Spacious outdoor Privy used by all on site campers (All Free) +Dock and canoe/kayak launch (bring your own canoes/kayaks) +Patio/deck (20'x25') with fire circle, chairs and tables (burn only locally sourced wood by booking a "Firewood Bundle" OR a "Butane Cook Stove" in the "Extras") +A "Gear Wagon" (book in the "Extras") to transport your luggage, tents, gear and/or coolers from the car to the site you have booked. (And again on your way out also). Hip Campers have often asked for fire starting help. We recommend First Time/Novice Hip Campers consider the "Fire Workshop" extra. You get a "Firewood Bundle" a kit of firestarters and patient instruction on starting your first campfire. Grey Havens is waste wise: remove your garbage and cleanup your site to get up to $10 cleaning fee returned. Grey Havens was the final chapter in Tolkien's trilogy. We continue creating a paradise here. Hip Campers may wonder about the whale bench seen in many of our photographs. Ask your host about the story of our Whale Bench.

2 nights at Pinehaven Camping And Cabin
We had a great time staying at Camp Kyle. Natalie was very friendly and inviting. The Cabin and outhouse were very clean. There was an outdoor kitchen available with propane burners/grill. Great for heating up or making a meal. A large fire pit and plenty of outdoor space surrounded by a beautiful landscape. The wood stove inside the cabin was a perfect addition as we were able to stay warm during the night. Thank you for sharing your land with us.

Awesome site, very clean and beautifully maintained. As well as very unique! Such a cool low stress campsite, not too far from home, but far enough from any noise or city. Host was great and very responsive. 10/10 would recommend and hoping to stay again!

My children and I loved our stay at Rick's place. Tha cabin and airplane are in great shape and nestled in the middle of the woods. Rick was a good host and everything was as we expected. The wood stove in the cabin kept us warm in mid November, and the airplane was big enough for two kids with winter sleeping bags. It was a memorable trip. Thanks, Rick.

Lovely little cabin. Well-insulated, and has a wood stove. Doesn't take much fire to warm the place up. The main cabin has three single-bed cots plus a single bed mattress in the loft, but know there is very little headroom up there. Probably more suitable for a child. There's a table and four chairs. The plane has room for an adult or a couple of kids to set up sleeping bags. Very quiet. Didn't hear a thing aside from the wind in the trees. Just what I wanted for a Hallowe'en camping weekend. The outhouse is clean and as nice as an outhouse can be. Watch out for the dogs on the way in. They're friendly cuties, but don't seem car-smart, so drive extra slowly.

We loved Gillian and Jim’s property. Our stay could not have been better. Their hospitality and kindness went above and beyond. Their attention to the little things made all the difference. They aim to please by exceeding all expectations, more than any other host we have experienced. The three of us were very comfy and had lots of fun after dark by the fire and inside playing games. We got lucky with clear skies and sun. The stars were out and the sun in the morning was glorious. We only had time for one night but it felt like so much more. We will certainly be booking again and highly recommend to anyone looking to connect with Nature and relax.

Firstly, Rick was the best host. Informative, responsive but left us to our own devices. My partner and I were looking for somewhere functional and secluded and this property hit all the marks. We stayed there with our 3 large dogs and were able to explore trails onsite that were easily accessible and intuitive. There's also a great clearing in the marsh where we were able to catch some shooting stars! The first night we stayed in the smaller cabin, which was a dreamy little slice of rustic bliss. Second night we stayed at the unique plane crash site - overall has more space and access to the plane worked as a perfect refuge to shelter from the elements, while conveniently placed steps away from the warmth of our campfire. Clearly both sites are treated with care, clean and filled No doubt, will be back.

Renee & Randy your property is beautiful. We loved walking all your trails with our dogs. The thought you both put in to the little details like the dog library was so cute. The sunsets were gorgeous and we loved sitting on the floating dock every morning to drink our coffee. If anyone is looking for a get away weekend to disconnect this is the place to go!

This is one of the best places I’ve stayed at so far! The location can be a little tricky to find, but Jim and Gillian give clear directions. Once you arrive, it’s just a short walk to your cabin surrounded by nature—and that’s really what this place is all about. You’ll have everything you need: water right in front, a cozy campfire, and even some games to make your stay more fun. The best part is the full privacy, since there’s only one cabin on the property, making the whole place yours. Jim and Gillian are so kind and helpful, which made the experience even better. I already have plans to go back—so don’t think twice, just go for it! ✨❤️

We had a great stay at the cabin! Our dogs got to hangout off leash with no worries of others being around. Nice and quiet. Easy to find and the host was very easy to get a hold of. Tons of spots to hang hammocks and pitch tents. The small towns around are also fun to explore.
