Quiet unplugged time

Canvas Tent on Stewiacke River

I loved this tent on the river! It was clean, the area was quiet, and the view was peaceful and picturesque. A bonus is there are lots of trails and waterfalls around. Be prepared for no cell service. The mosquitos were nuts, so the bug tent was greatly appreciated, but definitely recommend packing lots of bug repellent! Will definitely be back and recommend this place to friends looking for a quiet unplugged time away from everything.

Pristine and relaxing experience

Canvas Tent on Stewiacke River

Such a relaxing space! After a fun short drive down to the site I popped into the tent and immediately felt like it was a mini home-away-from-home. Not only was the tent in pristine condition, it was equipped with all my camping needs so I could enjoy my dinner and night at the campfire. The sounds of birds added to the ambiance, which was topped by the fireflies glowing as night fell. I’d love to come back for another getaway!

There was room for tents, the yurt was large and inviting, and we were provided a kitchen tent as an area to cook. The river was very pretty, and we would definitely recommend this as a place to return to in the summer!

Missing Barn Farm!

Canvas Tent on Stewiacke River

Such a beautiful and romantic experience on the Stewiacke river! This private site came with EVERYTHING you could possibly need when camping, as well as anything you may have forgotten. This was the perfect spot to unplug from the busy world and reset in a tranquil environment with my SO. After visiting Benjamin Bridge winery in the valley, we settled into the camp with a cozy fire onlooking the river. The sunset was immaculate across the farm fields, and the birds make the perfect alarm clock for a relaxing and easy morning. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a secluded swim spot/paddle board location, or summer retreat from the city! Makes for the sweetest getaway!! Thank you to the friendly and accommodating hosts for sharing this special spot, the farm fresh eggs, and the wonderful recommendations to visit some local waterfalls! Burnside falls and fantom falls did not disappoint!

If you’re looking for a peaceful and scenic camping spot by the river, where you don’t even have to set up a tent because everything is already there, this is the place!! The location is perfect with the river flowing right by, the surrounding fields and farm land provide a perfect setting. There is also room for an extra tent if the land owners allow it. One of the best things about this campsite is the range of activities available, whether you’re into kayaking, hiking or fishing there is something here for everyone. The river is perfect for fishing, if you’re feeling more adventurous you can take a kayak down the the river or hike down at your own pace. The facilities at this campsite are also top notch. There is a clean and well-maintained “thrown” only a short walk from the site. There is also a well stocked store minutes down the road where are you can get everything you need snacks and necessities. Also check out Bevs country diner for some pretty good fried chicken from what I hear. Farm fresh eggs are also available on site. This place was perfect. Can’t wait to come back.
