This 64 acre property in the beaver valley has a rolling terrain that leads you through several different forests, with tones of spectacular views along the way The creek side trail, immediately takes you to another world. The fast flowing water trickling down through hundreds of mini waterfalls creates the perfect natural spa sound/environment. At night the darkness in the valley allows for a beautiful night skies. Spring and summer bring fire flies and all year round you get unbelievable big sky starry nights

Old cedar camp (midway)

94%
(17)
Tent site · Sleeps 2
This is in among the old cedars on the property about a 8 min hike up from the parking. It creates a unique experience being sheltered in these old giants by a flowing creek! This is the the perfect place to pitch a tent and enjoy nature at its finest. An outhouse is available on site, fires are permitted within local regulations, pets are welcome! This old farm gently slopes up towards an incredible escarpment with a Bruce Trail at the top. Right across the road is a Beaver River for fishing and paddling. There are several creeks flowing through the property. The main one flows through old Cedars with tones of mini waterfalls. Views of Old Baldy, Talisman ski club, the escarpment to the west and big sky for weather lovers. The wetlands right across from our property create an abundance of wildlife. A bird lovers delight!  There are several hiking trails on the property but for the adventurous hikers once you get to the top/east part of the property you enter into days of hiking trails. At the top of the escarpment, which is approximately a 45 min hike, consistently uphill, you will hit the Bruce trail. From here you can go south to old Baldy. This would be a full day hike but because of the remote location you will be hiking in areas that are rarely accessed.

Only a 5 min hike up to an isolated campsite right beside the creek gives you space for one tent and lots of extra space around the campfire. 2 camping chairs will be supplied. Water can be taken from the creek for cooking but nothing can be added to the creek (washing dishes can not happen in the creek). Outhouse is a 2 min walk down or 3 min walk up onto the property. Hiking trails are throughout the property or you can explore the Valley.

Although this is closer to parking this site is ideal for campers who are hiking, climbing, biking, kayaking, fishing or other activities offsite during the day. You will still get privacy, unbelievable sunsets and sunrises. Views of old Baldy and the stars. Fire pit, Muskoka chairs, water bucket for cleaning dishes and drinking water provided.

Overall we had a great experience, though there were a lot of ants and uneven terrain around our campsite which made navigation difficult. However, the host is very helpful, and provided us with supplies. Very available and ready to help whenever she can.

This was a genuinely appreciated camp adventure! Kelly was welcoming and casual. The site itself is beautiful with a flowing creek, large fire pit and a nice spot for a hammock. Lots of hiking trails on the property and adjacent with access to the Bruce Trail on the Niagara Escarpment.

Came through during a multi day cycling trip and loved the cedar creek campsite. Great views all around the property, more trails than we got the time to explore, and clean outhouse with water access. Beaver Valley is a beautiful part of Ontario and this is a perfect base to explore it from!

Cleanest bunkie I've seen. Good location on top of a hill. Outhouse. Firepit a quick walk away. No shower. Lot of green. No solar power. No power of any kinds. Just a solar powered lantern. Fully furnished with bedding. Screened front porch. Nearly perfect cellphone reception. A rugged cart is provided for moving stuff to cabin. Would go again.

I stayed at one of the tent sites at Beaver Valley Base Camp during a 2 day hike on the Bruce Trail Beaver Valley section. There aren't enough superlatives to describe my incredible tent-site stay on her beautiful property. The site had views to both sides of the valley and I listened to the relaxing sound of a nearby cascade on the Beaver River as I watched the sun set over the valley. The covered platform and camp chairs offered a great spot to relax and spread out my camping equipment. This spot had everything I needed for a great camp and I can't wait to return. Thank you Kelly for sharing this amazing place.

Our stay at Cedar Creek was lovely! Really well maintained grassy trails all throughout within view of Old Baldy Escarpment. It was so nice falling asleep to the sound of the creek, there were a fair number of mosquitos but that’s to be expected with the wet summer we’ve had. Was also nice as fire pit, benches, two chairs and a netted dining tent. Also was great being a close drive to Duncan Escarpment Provincial park, and a 20 min drive from Georgian Bay.

I enjoyed myself so much that I booked AGAIN the very next weekend. Kelly has such a stunning piece of property and the campsite was absolutely perfect for me. There was so much to see and do in the area and I had so much fun!! Two weekends in a row and I still cant get enough of the place that I hope to be back a few more times before summer is over. This place is now my favorite little getaway and I am so grateful to have found it, just wish I had found it sooner!! Thanks so much for everything Kelly, you're such a gem!!

Cedar Creek was the ideal place for me to spend two nights while hiking the Bruce Trail. Kelly was very friendly and helpful. It was especially nice to camp with a view of Old Baldy. I would love to camp there again sometime.

Nice little cabin
Wild Orchard Cabin
Great little cabin, plenty of room. Enough for spending a night comfortably… a little bit difficult to find since it has no address and you have to go by coordinates, little tip you will know when you are there when you see the name “behan” on the mailbox and a little ornament bicycle at the driveway entrance.

We actually stayed at a new campsite closer to parking that the host offered. Truly beautiful views of the valley, sunrise, sunset and stars, and it's in a meadow with wild flowers. A privilege to be able to experience it.

Nice property with epic view of Beaver Valley. The hike in to the campsite is really nice, but it is nearly 10 minutes uphill so plan accordingly. Campsite itself is simple and next to creek. Night sky views incredible if clear. No light pollution!

Kelly's land was super spacious and private, we even had a small cute stream right next to the campsite. The amenities provided were better than expected! It came complete with a well maintained outhouse close to the site, as well as dry firewood. The location is also ideal if you're a climber, with Old Baldy right around the corner and Metcalfe a short drive away!
