We absolutely loved the suspended tent experience and secret paradise on Alex's land. It was heaven. Super private, so much space and little corners to enjoy peace, beauty and nature's rhythms. Alex is an amazing host, even the wildlife on his land are happy, playful and fun. We enjoyed watching the otter family swim all day, who made sure to get our attention multiple times. We felt safe, supported and left very inspired. We are grateful and very blessed for this experience. Thank you Alex :)

We had an amazing stay at this campsite over the weekend! The location is perfect, peaceful, scenic, and exactly what we were hoping for. Alex was incredibly welcoming, helpful, and made sure everything was set up for a comfortable stay. You can really tell they put care into the place. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely recommend this spot to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway.

We really liked the campground. It was spacious and private. Couldn’t even hear the other campgrounds around us. The little beach was enjoyable. Please note that you can’t drive up to the site and you need to use a wagon to bring your stuff (about 5–10mins going uphill) and there’s only water at the entrance of the campground. Also, if you hear howling at night, it’s the huskies next door and not wolves. Would definitely go back!

Our family really enjoyed the camp site and the beautiful private forest Alex shared!
We booked camp site #3. The site is clean, ground is even. It is close to the beach. You feel like you have the whole forest.
The lake and the beach is wonderful. The water is clear, and you can barefoot stand on the lake. Alex also provides caneo for the guests. Our beagle leant to swim in the lake !
Alex is very friendly, responsive, providing clean instruction accessing the campsite. Chatting with Alex, made you feel like you are visiting a friend.
We definitely will come back to this campsite when we visit this area.
Alex, thank you for hosting us.

Victor was an amazing host! Always there if we had any questions, very welcoming. Give us a tour when we arrived, his wife Julia cooked us a typical Ukrainian rabbit stew which was excellent. Would definitely come back!

Very calm, peaceful, private. Loved it. Beautiful small lake with a beach with free kayak, paddle boat etc. campsites are far apart so there’s so much privacy. We didn’t see a single other person from our campsite the whole time.
Alex is a nice host and very welcoming.
Only thing is you have to walk quite a ways to your campsite (site 4 5 and 6 being the furthest). They have plenty of off road trolleys to carry everything though.

Alex has a beautiful property. The campsites are very secluded, so you definitely enjoy being out in nature. He provided good, strong wagons, so it was easy to get all the gear to the site. There was no running water at the site, but we appreciated the 2 port-a-potties that were available, the brook nearby was good enough water to wash dishes with and he said there was a hose at the back of his house that he said we could use.
The beach was so fun - such a relaxed environment, with clean water to swim in, watercraft available for use, chairs and umbrellas. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Can’t say enough about how much I loved this place. Plenty of beauty and privacy. The lake is so clean and refreshing. Perfectly shallow for children. Alex is a gracious and accommodating host and a very interesting man as well!

2 nights at Anastasia’s Domain!
My sister and I had a wonderful time! Granted it was incredibly hot, but the cool swimming pond fixed that during the day and the fan in the cabin eased the heat at night. The cabin had a BBQ, camp stove, and firepit. Plates, utensils, kettle, cups, mini fridge, etc. Even the composting toilet was conveniently next to the cabin with motion sensor lighting. No stumbling around in the dark at night. You can't park at your cabin but the owner will cheerfully haul you and your gear to it, in his zippy UTV. There are also some gorgeous big dogs that roam freely around the forest grounds. If they see you, they may pop up for a quick pat, then mosey on their way. It was enchanting.

A beautiful campground with an excellent beach. We stayed at site 3, which was close to the beach and very spacious. Alex was an excellent host who is always available to answer any questions and provide local information on area attractions and amenities. Highly recommended!

The lake was beautiful, clear and warm. The campsite is clean, very spacious and far from the others. You can hear the nearby "wolves" yipping at nighttime (sled dogs). Raccoons respectfully passed through our campsite each night and stole food we left out by accident.
Alex was an excellent host, very fun to chat with!
Our dogs felt very welcome and enjoyed the lake as well.
The walk in is easy unless you have really heavy items. There are wagons to wheel stuff in, but there is a small section that its still a little difficult with heavy items!
Bonus: no mosquitos!

Weekend Trip to secret paradis
I had an absolute blast, Alex is an amazing host! I felt so welcome, a home away from home 🩵
The views are breathtaking. I stayed on the private site with the suspended tent which was pretty neat. I loved the fact that there was 2 fire pits, one to cook and one to enjoy ! I walked around the site and it was perfect, fresh air and and beautiful fresh water stream to admire.
A big thank you to Alex for being such a beautiful person and host, 💯% recommend 🥰🩷

Our stay was so amazing! Great sites with a lot of privacy and within reasonable walking distance from the parking (and provided carts to help carry things). The lake and beach are beautiful (kayak, canoe, chairs provided as well), great to spend the day at.
And Alex is a great host with a very nice family and very cute dogs ☺️
We definitely recommend this place 🫶

The best private sites camping near Brownsburg-Chatham guide
When to go
Camping at the municipal campground and private campgrounds in the area is seasonal, operating from May to October, though national parks and reserves around Brownsburg-Chatham do offer winter camping. The best time to take advantage of the activities here is definitely during the summer (mid-July through August will be warmest), though the fall here can be really pretty too. Coming before mid-June can be chilly and wet—less than brilliant for camping.
Know before you go
- The public library in Old Brownsburg Village offers free public internet access and computers for use.
- Being so close to Montreal means that cellphone reception is usually pretty good in this area, but campers should expect it to be spotty (or disappear) deeper into the parks and reserves around Brownsburg-Chatham.
- As this municipality only offers a convenience store, you should grab groceries in neighbouring town Lachute or elsewhere before setting up camp.
- You’ll find it difficult to explore this region without your own vehicle.
