Offering a serviced camping site for tents for up to 5 persons, with a firepit, two hammock chairs, rustic toilet, cold (sun-warmed) shower in season, a large deck with bar-height table and two chairs, lawn chairs, floating dock, garbage and recycling bins, canoe (with two paddles and three bouyancy vests) and private 1.5 acre lake! Careful fishing by permit is allowed, catching bluegills, redear sunfish and who knows what else (it was originally stocked with sunfish, bass and perch). Parking is right at the campsite, following a 400m tractorway over grass. This tractorway enters and exits onto the county road independent of the host’s private home driveway.
Our small, bio-diverse farm is in a quiet location but only 10km from shops and cafes. Our property is run with minimal chemical inputs. The lake supports fish, turtles, thousands of tree frogs in the spring, and musk rat, woodland ducks, and heron. You may also see rare bobolinks, barn swallows, and bats in summer. Star gazing is very good, there is very little light pollution. Tall poplar trees provide shade and shelter as well as pleasant sounds of the wind.
Footwear is advised. Conditions underfoot are usually good, we do try to keep poison ivy in check but it does pop up here and there.

Welcome to our peaceful 28-acre hobby farm, where you can relax, explore nature, and experience a little taste of country living.
Our property features a mix of mature forest, open fields, walking trails, and a marshy pond that attracts a variety of birds and wildlife. The trails loop around the property, making it perfect for a leisurely walk or an evening stroll.
Each campsite offers its own unique setting and experience. Whether you prefer the shade of the forest, the openness of the fields, or camping near our apple trees, you'll find a quiet place to unwind. Keep an eye out for the deer that often visit the orchard, especially during apple season.
Throughout the year, our hobby farm produces fresh eggs, pure maple syrup, herbs, handcrafted soaps, and other seasonal products that may be available during your stay.
Early summer is an especially beautiful time to visit. June and July bring an abundance of mulberry trees, wild black raspberries (black caps), rhubarb, and fresh herbs. We've also planted pear and cherry trees that are growing each year, adding to the beauty and bounty of the farm.
Whether you're looking for a peaceful getaway, a place to reconnect with nature, or simply a quiet campsite under the stars, we hope you'll enjoy everything our little corner of the countryside has to offer.

I am a true north hipcamper.. I have been all over North America camping at amazing hipcamps! I have stayed at the taj Mahal of campsites at a palm tree nursery in Miami to the plane crash cabin in Ontario, a duck pond in South Carolina, and a farm just near where rocket ships take off.. to a car camping beach stop in Nova scotia on the Atlantic ocean.. just to name a few..
saying all that..
Welcome to The Sanctuary.
Let me tell you about the stars out on my tent sites.. they are magnificent to see.. in the morning you will hopefully awake to a beautiful sunrise with the wind turbines in the faint distance while you enjoy your coffee and oatmeal (if I am around just ask if you need a quick breakfast to start your travels)
Remember, to rest and recharge..
This site is home to one of the oldest churches in Upper Canada, this building was erected in 1860 as a Wesleyan Methodist church. Although from my understanding there was an older church onsite before 1860. The church and graveyard holds heritage property designation by the township of norwich.
The 1860 congregation was known for its “methodical” devotion to prayer and social justice, including support of the Underground Railroad. They were also famously teetotalers (no alcohol), and this church likely served as the local hub for the Temperance movement in 1800s Oxford Centre. In 1925, the church joined the United Church of Canada, in 2021 the curries congregation folded along with the three churches under the same name.
The sanctuary is still a sanctuary, although a home.. Guests are welcome to come in for a peek or quiet time if needed, just ask! The pews are still intact.
The graveyard on site is decomissioned with the last burial taking place in 1921. Please respect those laid to rest here.
In 1970, an F4 tornado passed through Oxford County, approximately 1 km wide, and destroyed much of the surrounding area—except this church. The roof was lost during the storm, but the original stained glass survived as well as the pews. The tornado destroyed around 30 homes, and the nearby Anglican church, which was later rebuilt. Most all grave markers were displaced into surrounding fields, and recovered pieces were returned and placed in a corner section of the graveyard. Please respect the graveyard and do not set up camp beyond the church property as there are homes and farmers fields surrounding.
no disrespectful or harmful activity is permitted on this part of the land.

My partner and I brought our pup to this lovely property for a weekend. Once we arrived we immediately received a warm welcome and, from then until the end of our stay, we were accommodated beyond our expectations. Very nice couple to chat with, even our pup got to make a new friend!
If you enjoy getting out of the city, solitude, morning coffee, horses, fireflies, and kind people, I would absolutely head here for a visit
