2 nights at Cute Cabins - Ready to camp
We had a wonderful weekend in this cozy cabin in the woods.
The place is peaceful and perfect to disconnect from everyday life. The cabin is really cute and comfortable, and we felt at home right away.
It was exactly what we needed for a romantic getaway, far from the city noise. We left feeling rested and already wanting to come back!
Thanks to Luc for making our stay so enjoyable.

Weekend Trip to Dobedo Camps
It was our second time staying at Matthew’s camp and yet again we have nothing but good things to say! He was very accommodating to our later arrival and helped bring our things to our site.
This time we stayed at Eagle’s camp and the view did not disappoint. We had a wonderful time and enjoyed the clean, and well stocked amenities. Thank you again Matthew and we look forward to another trip out there!

After driving on the private road for 10 min, we arrived at a charming rustic Log Cabin, which can sleep up to 7 people, a basic kitchen ( 2-burner hotplate, fridge, sink; dishes, pots and pans, cutlery available). There is a beautiful view of the lake, which can be accessed via a short path down the hill. There was a dock, 2 kayaks and a canoe. which kept our young teens busy. Also a nice fire pit, with extra rocks to sit on.
Matthew is a very nice, welcoming and accommodating host.

2 nights at Dobedo Camps
My fiancé and I had a two night stay at Camp Raven in the beginning of August to celebrate our anniversary. As someone who grew up in the city and has never experienced camping in any capacity, I was as excited as I was nervous. Luckily, thanks to how naturally beautiful and welcoming this reserve of nature is, along with Matthew’s kindness and empathetic hosting, coming back to Camp Raven is something we’re very excited to make a tradition out of!
The highlights for me have got to be: The amazing quality of the lakes, the boating (kayaking and canoeing), the campfires we were able to make right next to our lodging, the hiking trails surrounded by trees, and the view right from our cabin/lodge!
I’d highly recommend Camp Raven to beginners like myself, as well as experienced campers. The various activities mentioned above, Matthew’s kindness and professionalism, along with the vast and beautiful nature reserve is sure to be an overall incredible experience for anyone.
I feel very thankful to have found Camp Raven and look very forward to coming back soon!

Excellent experience. Very quiet and private spot by the lake, all the amenities work great and are in immaculate shape. There were absolutely no mosquitoes. Highly recommended.

2 nights at Dobedo Camps
Stayed in the Rock Face guesthouse with two friends of mine, we were lucky enough to have the whole site to ourselves which was lovely! For those whole are curious, there was intermittent cell reception just in case you'd like to text your loved ones but not fast enough to do much else, which is the way it should be imo. Gorgeous piece of land and Matthew was very kind and gracious for our whole stay. Would highly recommend a weekend getaway here if you're in Montreal or the nearby area.

We stayed at hawk camp which has a great view and comfy bed! The forest walk down to the water was lovely, we saw lots of frogs and toads. The common kitchen area has everything we needed for cooking. Matthew was a very nice host! We recommend this place, not too far from Montreal!
