Like most folks who’ve been bitten by the water ski bug, I dreamed of having my own lake and when I met my life partner Harald, an elite slalom skier, my search began in earnest. By a combination of good timing and good luck, I was able to make that dream come true and in the spring of 2014 I acquired this land with the hopes of building my dream water ski lake on it. 7 years later, we have a thriving water ski club and are constantly making improvements to the site. We now have decided to add some sites for rent to share this incredible property with others outside the water ski community. Site #1 is a small cabin that sleeps 3 and site #2 is a small houseboat that has been converted to a bunkie. Onsite activities include use of a canoe and paddleboard. Use of a kid's swingset and olympic trampoline. Swimming and fishing. Pets are welcome, campfires are permitted.

So lovely! Amber, husband and all staff were incredible, welcoming and hospitable. We loved staying right with the animals and enjoyed exploring and interacting with the animals independently as well as being invited to feed the animals apples & even bottle feed the babies (I assume we got lucky and this isn't always an offer). The living space is also wonderful. Comfortable, clean and stocked with all that you need. Would recommend this to anyone and stay again anytime!

2 nights at T's Pond

Pro: - nice host - electricity as well as full fridge. - Porta potty was a flush type so the smell was minimal - watch water skiing from front of cabin and there is nice shade there in the evening - there is a full screen sitting area with lawn furniture. great for keeping bugs off. - Fairly quiet site as long as water ski was not taking place - you can drive up to the Cabin - The pond is very close to main road to go into town. About 20min away from costo and bass pro shop. Con: -Fridge doors opened towards the wall making fridge access extremely limited - Cabin is tiny. when the couch is pulled out into a bed there is maybe 4 spots you can stand. - Cabin is "roughing it" I would have brought a cleaner and wipes to give it a quick wipe down before use. - No walking trails on property - Porta potty is a little ways away so be prepared to walk if you need the bathroom. - There is no latch on the Cabin door. either you lock it from the inside or the outside. it makes it hard if one person wants to nap in the afternoon.

Weekend Trip to Grindstone Creek Farm in Burlington

Our stay at Grindstone Creek Farm was absolutely wonderful! The property is peaceful, beautifully kept, and offers a true countryside escape while still being close to Burlington. The accommodations were spotless, cozy, and thoughtfully prepared for guests. The hosts were incredibly welcoming, made everything easy from check-in to check-out. If you’re looking for a quiet getaway surrounded by nature, this farm is a gem. We’d happily return and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area!

Wonderful houseboat retreat! This is a perfect spot for a peaceful getaway. The view is absolutely stunning --sitting by the water in the morning or evening is pure joy. 🌅✨ The houseboat itself is very clean, cozy, and thoughtfully arranged. It has everything you need: fridge, freezer, stove,light, dishes, and A/C. A frying pan and at least one blanket would be nice additions, but overall, the space is well-equipped. The outside area is just as lovely — quiet, private, and ideal for enjoying coffee or relaxing by the fire🥰 The sofa looks so nice, but unfortunately, it’s very uncomfortable for sleeping--even though we brought extra mattress Overall, this place has a special charm. Great views, privacy, and thoughtful touches --we will definitely come back again! 💛

Weekend Trip to T's Pond

My husband and I stayed here for a long weekend and we absolutely loved it!!! If you want to get away somewhere where you don't see many people, this is the place to go! Although they waterside, it was quite quiet. We brought a 2 person floatie and sat in the water with that while watching the boat go by. We would 100% stay here again. Only criticism is that the porta potty is a trek away and the bbq was quite dirty so we didn't use it. We loved it there and the host was very quick to reply to my messages. I recommend this place 100%!!!

1 night at T's Pond

T's Pond was the perfect place for us to stop on our trip to Niagara Falls! We enjoyed our time there and had fun swimming and watching a few skiiers on the lake. I did what a few other Hipcampers recommended and put our sleeping pad for tent camping on the pull-out couch. It was super comfortable that way. The only concerns I had was that the fridge and toaster oven weren't cleaned out from previous Hipcampers. Also, make sure any food you put in the fridge is in sealed containers! Everything I had in sealed containers was fine, but anything outside of sealed containers ended up with a really weird taste and had to be thrown out. Overall I would say it was a good experience and I'd be happy to go back :)

We really enjoyed our time at the little houseboat. The site is really private and had everything we needed. We enjoyed sitting by the fire, using the BBQ, the paddleboard and generally just chilling out by the water. The houseboat itself is lovely and cozy. Teresa is an excellent host and was available to answer and questions we had. Overall it's a great way to spend some time by the water and get out of the city. Would highly recommend.

Where to go

Niagara Falls

Journey north to Niagara Falls for action-packed attractions and iconic views. Often considered the eighth wonder of the world, Niagara campers can explore everything from boat tours to theme parks and water walks. With full hookups, picnic tables, and fire rings, Niagara Falls campgrounds and cottage rentals provide easy resting less than 10 minutes from the action. Outdoor adrenaline chasers can swing above the Niagara Gorge on a high ropes adventure course or soar through the sky on a zipline.

Point Abino Peninsula

Forests, sands, and wetlands inspire exploration at Point Abino Peninsula. With its diverse terrain and waterfront views, Point Abino welcomes campers to adventure through sand dunes, swamps, and tree-covered trails. Featuring the National Historic Point Abino Lighthouse at its tip, history lovers can learn about this early 20th-century fixture that is still active. A short 10 minutes away, Point Abino camping falls within the surrounding campgrounds, cottage rentals, and RV resorts offered in Sherkston.

Fort Erie

Tucked on the southeastern tip of the Niagara Region, Fort Erie is a friendly neighbour to Sherkston and the U.S. border. Boasting beautiful beaches along the Lake Erie shoreline, the town provides campgrounds with full hookups, dry campsites, lodging rentals, and waterfront views. Enjoy a swim at Crescent Beach or wander the walkways of Old Fort Erie Beach Park just moments from historical landmarks. Old Fort Erie features an original fort built in 1764, which played a pivotal role in the War of 1812 and Seven Years’ War.

When to go

Sherkston camping offers action and adventure year-round. Summer weather reaches average highs around 27°C bringing sunshine and warmth. Late spring to early fall is perfect for campfires, tenting, and water sports. Heat and moisture from Lake Erie do provide the perfect playground for bugs—spray and protective clothing is a must. Winter winds bring cold temperatures dropping below freezing day and night. Winter campers are highly encouraged to consider rentals with heating or to have extensive cold weather camping experience. Be sure to plan ahead to get the most out of your stay in Sherkston.
