Glamping in Waterloo

Southgate, ON · 9 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging
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!

Our 2.5 acre property is located just outside the small village of Millbank. The large lawn area is great for camping, campfires, playing games and relaxing while watching the horse and buggies of the local Amish and Mennonites go ambling by in a manner that speaks to a time gone by. We have now added a Bunkie that can be booked for a more comfortable camping experience. The Perth Harvest Pathway section of the G2G rail trail is quite literally in the backyard. for hiking , bird watching and biking. We have an outdoor shower and large sink in a shed attached to the rear of our garage. It is easy to identify as it has a large white x on the door. We also have a few camping items such as a grill and a few cooking pots and pans in the small shed near the G2G trail

Welcome to Birez Cabin — a peaceful forest retreat tucked away on 40 private acres of trees and open space near Port Dover/Simcoe. If you’re craving a quiet place to slow down, reconnect with nature, and enjoy simple cabin comforts, this is the kind of place where mornings feel calmer and evenings stretch a little longer around the fire. Cozy heat via wood stove + diesel heater. Sleeps 4–5 with loft beds and a twin pull-out. Pet-friendly. Shared washroom nearby. Birez Cabin is a simple, cozy, "forest glamping" stay designed for time outside. Whether you're visiting for a romantic getaway, a small family and friends trip, or a quiet solo reset, Birez Cabin offers the space and privacy to truly unwind. Forest glamping = “a little roughing it”: This is a real nature stay, not a hotel or typically Airbnb; expect dirt on your boots, bugs (they live here), wildlife sounds at night, and the occasional weather surprise. If you need spotless perfection, full connectivity, and push-button comfort, you’ll be happier in town. What Guests Love: • Complete privacy surrounded by 40 acres of forest and nature with trails for walking, exploring, and stargazing • Sleeping for 4–5: queen bed + double bed in loft (stairs) + twin pull-out • Kitchenette: mini fridge/freezer, sink, utensils, bar seating for two • Fire pit evenings under the stars • Shaded gazebo + outdoor seating for slow mornings or sunset drinks • Wi-Fi available so you can stay connected if needed • Pet-friendly with room to roam This cabin comfortably sleeps up to 5 guests, making it perfect for couples, small families, or a peaceful weekend with friends. Good to know: • You are staying in nature, you may hear, see, and smell animals and bugs. • Loft beds are accessed by stairs. • The washroom is shared and located nearby. • To stay warm during winter, you will need to use a diesel heater and a wood stove. You should keep the fire in the stove going throughout the night. If you've never used these before, watch a couple of YouTube videos before arrival. WHAT TO BRING • Extra dry firewood • Drinking water • Food and anything for meal prep • Charcoal for grilling • Firestarters • Axe if you want to cut more wood • Extra blankets (especially for cool nights) • Bug spray, sunscreen, and garbage bags

You have complete privacy at the bunkie. However, if you need assistance our home isn’t too far away. Please note that it is an off-grid bunkie…which means no electricity! We do have lamps available in the bunkie, however bringing your own headlamp or flashlight is recommended. There is a cute, private outhouse w/ washbasin. We have an outdoor shower a little ways away from the bunkie site, with hot water. There is a double bed in the loft. The pull out couch on the main level also can be converted to a double bed.

"This place is magical!" Since moving here in 2004, Val and Brent have worked with the natural diversity of this 42 acre farm to create an ecological haven. Heartwood has always welcomed friends to experience the joys of a regenerative farm life -- our overnight farmstay program offers an adult-focused retreat experience. When you arrive, we’ll give you a warm Heartwood welcome, invite you for a glass of cider on the woodland patio, and provide enough of a farm orientation to be able to create your own adventure. Cuddle the piglets, explore our woodland and pasture trails, hang out in the barn for some farmyard therapy, pick fruit while walking the forest garden labyrinth, and if you're curious about the life of a farmer, tag along with Val to do the chores and dig deeper into the wonder of regenerative agriculture. We have three separate sites for our canvas platform tents. Sunrise Suite and Orchard Oasis are nestled between our pastures and orchards, offering farm life immersion. Spruce Sanctuary offers more seclusion and privacy in one of our farm's woodland zones. All of our tents come fully furnished with a super-comfy queen-sized bed, bedside tables, and furnished patio.

We purchased this farm in 1998 from the previous farmer who had owned it since 1929. The train line ran right by the gate where the Kota hut now sits and would drop cattle right there to be finished and sold later at the Toronto Stockyards. Our barn was built in 1890 with the old farmhouse located across the creek. Two creeks meet the Grand River on our farm. The bunkie is situated north of the barn and faces Willow creek. During the summer the creek gets quite shallow but there are a couple of pools that work nicely for a float with our river tubes. The river also has a small swimming hole. The bunkie is nestled between 2 hills which creates a natural little valley. Campers can take a walk around the property or use the nearby long walking trail. New this spring, campers will be able to enjoy the firewood sauna, located close to the bunkie and nestled in a private spot near the creek.
