HipCamp's Best Cabin Finalist 2022 Echo Hill is a unique camping experience because you will be camping in our private wildlife habitat sanctuary. We only rent out one campsite in our 100 acres of forested land, so you will have complete privacy. If you like to be alone in the woods this is the place for you. The white pine trees you see were planted by my parents over 60 years ago. We also have hiking trails throughout our wooded, rolling hills for you to explore. It is a fantastic place to view wildlife. Our completely off-the-grid little rustic one-room cabin with a screened-in porch, by the wildlife pond, where you will camp, was built by hand by my father. (see photos) Experience our rewilding. Practice your bushcraft. Writers, painters, musicians, and poets have created and composed in our little cabin by the pond. All Profits from the campsite go toward maintaining our native wildlife habitat sanctuary. We are private property and not a public campground. Local Attractions: Our wildlife sanctuary/organic farm is 18 km from Stratford where you can rent canoes and paddle boats to use on the Avon River. There are several grocery stores there. There is a great swimming quarry in St. Marys which is just 17 km away. There are two grocery stores in St. Marys. Lakeside Resort is 7 km away and is a good place to take small children swimming. There is additional hiking at Wildwood Lake Conservation Area and Harrington Mill Pond Conservation Area. Both just North of us. Canoes can be rented at Wildwood. We are a 5 minute drive away from Happy Hills Resort where you can buy ice. The closest general store, Embro Food Market where you can buy ice and food 7 days a week is in Embro which is 14 km away. Lake Huron which has great beaches is about a 55 minute drive away.

      At peace with nature
      We had the pleasure of staying at Alycin's for the weekend. It was exactly what we needed. Upon arrival, we were warmly greeted by Alycin and given a tour of the property. The property was incredibly private and BEAUTIFUL - carefully and meticulously cared for with abundant wildlife. Thanks, Alycin, for sharing your private wildlife sanctuary with us. We look forward to our next visit.

      Reconnecting with Nature.
      What Alycin and her father have done with this property is amazing, a pure gem. I did enjoy my stay beyond expectation. I could not believe the amount of wildlife on this relatively small property and the pond was a real attention grabber, better than television. I definitely will be returning at a later date to unwind again. It is nice to know that such a place exists in this fast paced world we presently live in. My wife and I would like to thank Alycin for all the amenities that are provided at the cabin and throughout the property and above all the solitude....priceless.

      Amazing for Nature Lovers
      Alycin's property is truly amazing. The wildlife around the camp site provided hours of enjoyment. There are nice trails throughout the property, lots of different environments to experience, and incredible views. Alycin herself is a fantastic host, and has done a fantastic job of building a wildlife sanctuary.
