This place will be ALL YOURS! Completely SECLUDED, PRIVATE and GORGEOUS! No sharing with other campers or guests, we ONLY book to ONE Group at a time to ensure you have the BEST possible stay.
As stewards of one of Canada’s most vulnerable ecological corridors, our mission is to protect and celebrate the rare biodiversity of the Costal Carolinian forest while inviting others to experience land and water in harmony.
We practice light-touch agro-tourism, regenerative foraging, and place-based learning—offering immersive experiences that deepen our shared connection to nature.
Every trail we walk, every plant we nurture, every bird we protect—it all begins with ecological respect and the belief that conservation is a lived relationship.
The Land
Perched atop massive 80-foot clay cliffs overlooking the warm, shallow waters of Lake Erie, our Foraging Farm is home to some of the most pristine shoreline left in Southern Ontario.
From the sun-soaked sandy Private Beach below to the rare Carolinian forest above, Birdwell Bluffs is a sanctuary for humans and wildlife alike.
Our soil is rich in natural clay, believed for generations to offer skin-soothing and detoxifying benefits. In summer, the lake warms to a silky embrace, perfect for swimming, floating, or simply watching the eagles circle overhead.

Weekend Trip to Spring Arbour Magic Forest &Trails!
We came during the winter and stayed in the bunkie for the weekend, and it was so beautiful and the wood stove kept us warm all night! Getting there was very easy, they even made a track for us right to the bunkie since the snow had been bad the days prior. Felt very secluded and was a perfect weekend! Would definitely recommend to anyone!

Weekend Trip to Macksville Acres
Great little spot, small, cabin. Great for two people. There is a 2nd level Bunky but it might be a little tight to sleep in. Recommend for two people Max. Very rustic, yet well built cabin. Wood burning stove was easy to use. Note pit toilet ia open to elements. Quiet, location, sweet little forest. Lots of great birds to see including woodpeckers in the surrounding forest.
Went in November for a micro sabbatical would be nice to go back in the summer. Host very attentive, and considerate. Highly recommend.

1 night at Cosy Log Cabin
My boyfriend and I absolutely adored Ben’s cabin. It was so beautiful and we had the best time. The host has went above and beyond to give us guests a great experience when staying here. We were just so amazed by the property. And the touch of Christmas was the cherry on top. We plan on coming back at least once a year. We especially loved the seclusion, peace and quiet, and being right in nature in a luxurious cabin. This is the absolute best place for a relaxing trip. It definitely exceeded our expectations. And Ben is a very friendly and attentive host, and responds quick with any questions or concerns.

Second time at this adorable cabin. Very well stocked but also minimalistic. Great place to extend the camping season if you don't have a hot tent. As always really enjoyed the wood stove and the quiet and calm of the open field. Really melancholic sitting by the fire and watching the geese migration at sunset

Weekend Trip to Spring Arbour Magic Forest &Trails!
Spring Arbour bunkie was a magical experience for my husband and me. Although we were alone in the forest on our mid fall trip, we felt such a sense of peace cozied up in the glow of the wood stove. What a thrill to go up for a scenic ride in Erik’s ultra light two seater plane. We really lucked out finding this hipcamp. The instructions were excellent and the hosts very responsive.

2 nights at Spring Arbour Magic Forest &Trails!
Location and Accommodation: 4.5/5
The bunkie was great. Very cozy and comfortable. It was fantastic to have access both the forested area, and an open field for watching the sunset/sunrise or stars at night. Highly recommend this location in the fall when the leaves are changing. Close to Backus Woods, where I had a lovely hike as well.
Host Communication: 1/5
I was given too much information. Bombarded with four different text walls of instructions, rules etc. all saying almost the same thing but slightly differently (or contradicting one another sometimes).
The only personal communication (aside from several pre-written ones) I received from hosts was a message that said "Okay only if you need please ##########." This was in response to my request that we communicate by phone number once I leave my house since I do not have internet on my phone. Honestly, it made me feel like I was bothering them if I had questions while I was there - and I did end up having questions about how to safely operate the air intake on the woodstove but I just decided to keep it to myself.
Value: 3.5/5
This place was awesome, but a touch expensive. After paying an extra $22 for firewood (necessary - it was close to 0C at night) and cleaning fees (I did all the cleaning because I was told to leave it better than I found it. There are not even sheets to change) it was 270 for 2 nights. At that rate, I expect to at least be welcomed by the hosts.
Overall, would return (after trying other spots)

This little cabin is so cute! I especially loved spending time with my family and my dog on the deck taking in the views. We were super comfortable sleeping in the loft and there was lots of room in the lower level for all three adults. Tom was very accommodating with our ever changing plans!

We had such a wonderful stay! The property is truly special, it accommodates a big group comfortably with plenty of space, and the outdoor kitchen is so well thought out and fully equipped. The cabin is cozy and has electricity, and the showers were spotless and easy to use. We loved the private hiking trail, picnic tables, and direct access to the beach, it made the experience feel peaceful and secluded. The hosts clearly put a lot of care into creating this space, and it shows in every detail. Jon was also responsive and warm. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a relaxing, nature-filled getaway.

We stayed at Jon’s amazing site with a group of six families, and we all enjoyed every second of our time there. The site is so well set and equipped with everything we needed and more! The private beach is large and beautiful, and the short hike to the beach is itself a funny adventure. We were pleasantly surprised that mosquitoes and flies seem to not even exist in the area. Fantastic weekend all over, we are definitely coming again.

I don't think I can gather enough amazing words to describe this magical tucked away experience. Turning off the road you are met with a gate and no trespassing signs. Smile & wave to the camera up on the right and know you are safe as you lock the gate behind you. Multiple sites to park rv's will greet you as you drive towards the cabin. Two of which I noted had electric hookups. The absolute darling little cabin greets you as you notice the huge firepit surrounded by bold red Adirondack chairs. They have cups holders that even hold wine glasses! The outdoor kitchen has absolutely everything you could need to prepare delicious meals from a huge BBQ to a plug in hot plate & even a griddle. Wine opener & utensils galore await in the cute wood cabinets. The outdoor HOT shower and FLUSHABLE toilet are treasures in such a setting. There is a boardwalk that boasts AHMAZING views & you can hear the waves! Borrow the path behind the kitchen and you will poke out cliffside with a ladder & wooden planks snaking down to the waters edge. Dogs may need assistance here. WEAR CLOSED SHOES! The beach itself is 100% secluded other than the far away boats you will see. If you go past the cement block you may run into other beach walkers. Keep your eyes peeled for beautiful beachglass, I found tons! If you should feel inclined, bring a trash bag & help keep this serene place clean from the surprises that can wash up on shore. The ONLY less desirable thing was the spiders haha 100% recommend!
