Private Waterfall In The Forest
Upon our arrival, the host welcomed us politely, but the campsite we received was clearly not ready for guests. There were many half-cut trees and large rocks on the ground, and it was almost impossible to find a flat area to set up our 4-person tent. The site was steep, uncomfortable, and obviously unprepared for camping.
We asked to change campsites, but were told everything was full. The host only cut a few logs, which did not solve the issue. Even with proper camping gear such as an air mattress and sleeping bags, we could still feel the uneven ground, rocks, and tree pieces underneath. Because of the discomfort and back pain, we had to shorten our trip and leave after only one night.
Another major issue was that our reservation clearly mentioned a private waterfall campsite. However, the site we received was more like an unprepared swamp area with dried trees blocking the view. Later, when we tried to visit the waterfall and lake, other guests informed us that the area was private to their campsite.
We then saw the actual private waterfall campsite, and it looked nothing like ours. It was clean, flat, and properly prepared.
The fire pit at our site was also placed on a steep slope where nobody could comfortably sit. In addition, the listing mentioned drinkable water on site, but we had to walk to reception, and there was no water available on the first night.
Overall, it felt like a random unfinished campsite had been added for booking. It was not suitable even for

Very beautiful camp site to be honest! One of the best i've seen. I would definitely come back.

I had such a great experience at this campsite and would absolutely come back. The grounds are beautiful although a bit muddy since the snow just melted. The views are stunning in every direction, and the sound of water running down the rocks adds such a peaceful, calming vibe to the whole experience. Sleeping in a tent next to running water is such a peaceful, grounding feeling. The gentle sound of the water flowing over the rocks creates this natural white noise that instantly relaxes you.
It’s also super dog friendly, which made the trip even better. They had plenty of space to explore and were just as happy as I was. There are picnic tables set up throughout, making it easy to relax and enjoy meals outdoors as long as weather permits.
Parking is very convenient and close to the sites, which makes unloading and setting up stress-free. I also really appreciated how clean and practical everything was, garbage bins are easy to find and well-maintained up the road. A huge bonus is that there’s a Metro grocery store just 5 minutes away, so if you forget anything or want to grab fresh food, it’s incredibly convenient.
Overall, it’s the perfect mix of nature, comfort, and accessibility. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a peaceful and well-equipped camping spot!

One of the most breathtaking natural spots you’ll ever find. Camping right beside a private waterfall feels truly magical, and the hosts were exceptionally kind and responsive throughout our stay. This is an experience you won’t want to miss.

Amazing location! The sound of the rushing waterfall is mesmerizing and melts away stress. The location is so amazing it counteracts some of the downsides of the campground. As it is newly opened these may just be growing pains. Please note there is no room for large tents. We have a tiny 2 person Marmot and were still unable to find a flat setup location.

Private Waterfall In The Forest
Its a great and unbeliveably cute camp site. We had a blast camping there though we were lucky to be alone. It was a dream come true. Not sure how private the experience would be under full load though as its quite an open area.

We couldn’t have asked for a better spot! Just as other reviews said, this place is truly a gem. It has everything you need - waterfalls, a lake, potable water, toilets, and even reliable data reception. Xavier was incredibly accommodating and hands-on, which made the experience even more commendable. We’ll definitely be coming back for more adventures here! 💚

We had an absolutely breathtaking time. Astrid & Xavier were phenomenal hosts. Attentive, knowledgeable, kind, friendly, available, and considerate. We have never camped anywhere like this. The location is beautifully situated, nestled under the trees, under the stars. We swam in the waterfall, paddles across the river, and watched the rain gently come down on the rocks atop the waterfall. It is truly a special place. Thank you again Astrid and Xavier! We can’t wait to come back again and again! A truly peaceful and magical time.

We loved this property so much! It’s stunningly beautiful with amazing water access on the river and a lake. The amenities made camping easy: fire ring at the tent site, toilets, trash & recycling containers, plus the kayak & paddle boards available to rent. We saw deer, an ancient looking tortoise in the water, all kinds of birds, frogs, and fish which delighted the kids. Xavier was really kind and helpful. One of my all time favorite campsites!

Each camp site has its own charm, with a private view of a body of water (whether it be the waterfall, the river or the lake)!

A wonderful place to camp. We had a private spot facing the waterfall. The camping spot are well spaced out, the views are spectacular. The hosts were very nice and welcoming. It’s a bit more of a roughing it style, the road in is rough, outhouse bathrooms, the terrain is a little difficult for large tents. . But that is what makes it beautiful, it’s not an RV parking lot. We are already planning on going again.

The campsite was absolutely stunning, with several spots to choose from—each offering a beautiful view of the river. I would recommend it without hesitation!
The road from the 315 to the site is a bit bumpy, and water is only available at the reception (just a short walk away). But honestly, those are such minor inconveniences that I’m really stretching to find any negatives.
It’s also wonderfully dog-friendly—my pup had the best time exploring and enjoying the outdoors alongside us.
The hosts, Astrid and Xavier-Loup, were incredibly accommodating and welcoming. Thank you both for everything—you made the stay even more enjoyable!

Beautiful piece of land, small, with only a few sites, but great if you want something quieter and more natural. Our site looked over the waterfalls which was absolutely beautiful and it also masked over any other sounds, creating more seclusion in nature. We paddle boarded down the lake and into a lovely stream but the best parts were the views! Great little place to camp and relax.

Super terrain, vue directe sur l'eau peut importe le terrain. Lac calme, possible de faire canoe, kayak, paddle board, etc. Il y a 7km possible à faire sur l’eau. Le host a pris le temps de nous montrer chaque terrain disponible pour qu’on puisse choisir où dormir (différentes vue : lac, chutes).

This was the best experience camping coming from my husband who camps quite frequently. This was my first time camping and I was beyond happy and comfortable. The site is very large but private. There is a scenic waterfall by campsites to the left and a gorgeous lake to the right. There are no mosquitos or flys from the waterfall. There are canoes and Kayaks available on site. The owners are lovey couple who ensured we were happy and had everything we needed. We are coming back next summer 100%. We have already told our friends and family about this gem of a place.

Thank you so much for the stay! The hosts were very kind and welcoming throughout our stay. The campground is beautiful. Many campsites available with direct waterfall views or calm peaceful lake views. We enjoyed our stay very much and will definitely be coming back. Parking near every campsite made our stay even easier.

Le site est magnifique. La communication était claire et simple, et les installations étaient bien entretenues et adéquates. Je suis allée en maman solo avec mes deux enfants de 5 et 8 ans, et nous avons toujours trouvé de quoi s'occuper: baignade, canot, observation d'oiseaux, randonnée, grimpe sur les rochers...mais il faut tout de même être bien disponible pour surveiller puisque les sites sont aux abords d'une rivière qui a un fort courant. J'ai passé un trèes agréable séjour.

Loved that we have a relatively private site, the proximity to the waterfall and the abundance of trees and wood for fire.
Xavier was very welcoming too!

One of the best camping spots I’ve ever visited peaceful, beautiful, and absolutely magical. I had the entire waterfall to myself! The host was incredibly welcoming and professional, even giving me a personal tour when I arrived and sharing his phone number in case I had any questions. I’ll definitely be coming back
