Awesome spot. Terri was super accommodating, her husband brought us over firestarter when he thought we couldn't get it started!!
Pond was beautiful, heard some cool howls throughout the night.

Weekend Trip to Willow Pond Haven
From the moment we arrived, we knew we had found a truly special place. Lisa's cabin isn't just a rental; it's a magical escape that feels instantly like home, only better. Everything about our stay exceeded expectations, and we can't recommend it—or Lisa as a host—highly enough.
The entire property is meticulously maintained and offers such a sense of peace.
Special mention: the amazing, clean pond. It was a sparkling centerpiece to the landscape! Whether we were enjoying our morning coffee by its edge or watching the sunset reflect off the water, it created the most tranquil atmosphere. It's clearly well-cared for, which made it such a joy to be around.

Weekend Trip to Willow Pond Haven
I had such a wonderful time glamping here! The place was beautiful, comfortable, and surrounded by nature — a perfect blend of relaxation and adventure. The peaceful atmosphere made it such a refreshing escape from the city.
Lisa and Scott were absolutely lovely hosts — warm, welcoming, and always happy to help. Their friendly approach really made the stay feel extra special!
I loved the friendly chickens roaming around, adding a cute countryside touch. The barbecue setup was great, and spending the evening by the firewood under the stars was such a cozy experience. Kayaking was another highlight — calm waters, lovely views, and lots of fun!
Overall, it was a relaxing and memorable experience. Highly recommended for anyone looking to unwind and enjoy nature in a fun and comfortable way! 🌞🔥🚣♀️🐔

How beautiful! What a lovely walk around and I got some fantastic sunset pics. There was traffic noise (as noted in the listing) which actually helped me sleep haha - I also slept well because I felt very safe. Lovely pond.

What a great little get away. Comfortable and the hosts are pretty awesome. They give you all the privacy you need and wood was cut and ready to burn for a camp fire. I would recommend anyone who is looking to go

Our recent stay at this cozy cabin was everything we hoped for in a family getaway. From the moment Lisa and Scott welcomed us, we felt right at home. Tucked away in such a peaceful setting, it truly felt like the perfect escape. The cabin smelled wonderfully of fresh-cut wood, the bed was so comfortable, and with camp lights, a heater, and a fire pit just steps away, our evening were so relaxing.
We loved all the little thoughtful touches—a spotless washroom, a drinking water jug, and fun outdoor games. The pond with its fountain, dock, and graceful willow tree quickly became our favorite spot. Nights by the fire with the pond lights glowing felt magical. We also adored the chicken coop—watching the hens being fed and collecting some super fresh eggs was such a treat!
Being just minutes from Durham and Hanover, with their charming shops, local restaurants, and a nearby park for hiking or fishing, made the stay even better. We can’t wait to come back!

This place is literally beautiful. We really had second thoughts before booking since it appeared too good to be true. But the way the host was responsive since the booking happened and until we were recieved by them is truly appreciable. I love that they went extra mile to put all the little details to make our stay extra helpful, specially the host helped us with starting campfire as we had no idea how to do it. Clean beds, clean washrooms. They provided us with water and grill. The cabin felt very cosy and smelled wonderful due to pinewood. They also went ahead and provided us camp lights and a heater. I haven't found a place like this on hipcamp until now, will definitely suggest. Thanks Lisa for going above and beyond.

Weekend Trip to Willow Pond Haven
Camping on Lisa and Scott's piece of paradise was amazing. Very serene. We were greeted upon arrival, such a lovely couple. Great place for a quiet getaway with access to their picturesque pond and property. They provide absolutely everything required for a successful getaway. Fresh well water provided was definitely a delight. Lisa reminded us she was always a text a way if needed. They have chicken coop that was quite entertaining while sitting around the fire.
All around I would definitely give Lisa and Scott a 12/10 for their piece of paradise. We will definitely be back.

This place was soooo beautiful. Semi private. Lisa and Scott go above and beyond to make sure your stay is perfect. The outhouse was extremely clean and has a sink for washing hands. The bunkie is newly built, smells SO GOOD. Spacious and clean. You can see the pond from the bunkie, few steps away. It's so clean and well kept. Has a dock to just zen out or float in a tube and take in the beauty of the property. They gave us fresh drinking water and re filled it the next day. Fire pit is perfect. The stars are insaine at night. Over all 10/10. Definitely recommend

Perfect little getaway for a couple days, hosts were nice and helpful when we arrived. We brought our grandkids and there was enough to do between canoe, paddle boat, mini playground, and farm animals. Nice spot to relax!

I recently stayed at this beautiful cabin with my girlfriend along with our dog. It was such a wonderful experience. From the moment we arrived we were welcomed by Scott and Lisa. We drove to the back of the property where our cozy cabin awaited. It felt like a quiet getaway in the woods. The cabin smelled like fresh cut wood and the bed(s) themselves gave us the best sleep ever. The fire pit was steps away along with the picnic table and restroom. It was the escape we were looking for and more! Been shown the property with the open pond, cascading water fountain and gorgeous willow tree hanging over, it felt like an enjoyment waiting to be had. Having access to kayaks and other water toys; our dog being able to play in the water made it all come together. At night we had access to the BBQ and firewood, the lights around the pond light up and we did escape to enjoy those little moments. The town of Durham nearby was about a 10 min drive where there are antique stores and consignment stores to ruffle through. We ended the afternoon with a hike near by the cabin … We found oyster mushrooms and chicken of the woods to cook over our campfire that night. Thank you for our getaway. It was amazing to check out to check in on what we were looking for.

Willow Pond Haven is a hidden gem! Cozy, spotless, and with a stunning pond view. The hosts went above and beyond — checking on us during our travels, greeting us in the rain, and making sure everything was perfect. A peaceful retreat we can’t wait to return to!

We had a lovely time in the Igloo. The location is beautiful and the water was clean and swimmable. The zip line and the slide were pretty fun too. We oiled have loved if the toilet was not beside the bed, it doesn’t smell lovely while in bed. Nonetheless we had a lovely time. Cleaning guy crept up on us before 11 am check out and scared the bejesus out of us. Maybe coming after 11 am would be a nice touch. The sound of the river while sleeping was a plus ! Bring a fan if you are visiting in the summer it is hot. The sauna is lovely and close to the water so you can plunge when it’s hot;)

Weekend Trip to Uxbridge Igloo
We had an amazing time at the Uxbridge igloo this summer. Our favourite part was the personal "lake" on the property that was perfect for swimming and cooling off after a hot day. They had a full BBQ and blackstone for cooking. The sauna looked cool but we never used it. Igloo itself is very nice, definition of glamping. Only issues were that the igloo gets really hot in the summer, bring a fan or two cause the A/C doesn't work. There also wasn't any utensils for cooking but they had everything else - working toilet, toiletries, blankets, pillows, towels, etc. We will definitely be back soon!!
