We have four sites with 30 amp RV power. One new site with 50 amp RV power (no pictures as yet) PLEASE NOTE: There are no outhouses/washrooms on the property, you must be self contained. Site 1 is in our opinion the best site but not the easiest to get in with a larger rig but have had a 43 ft unit in there. Site 2 is fairly level and grass area. Back in only. Site 3 is fairly level and grass area. Back in only. Site 4 is also fairly level and grass. It is pull through and offers a view of the lake. There is plenty of room to park tow or pull vehicle. Should one need there are leveling blocks available to use located to the right of site 2. The sites now have numbers either on the power posts or the panel box for ease of locating your spot. NOTE for 2025 water is not available at the sites as new lines are being installed. Water to fill your tank is available at our house. At present three of the sites have water feed from our home with potable water via garden hose. You may need to connect your hose to the supply line to reach your unit. When weather permits, early spring and late fall may not be available.

Don couldn't have been more helpful. Beautiful and relaxing stay by the lake listening to the birds. Absolutely perfect.

Excelent property. Well taken care of with some beach front views. Beach is fine sand and grass lots of open lawn area. The dogs loved it with the property being welcoming of off leash for dogs that behave. Don and his family and neighbours are genuine and welcoming. We had a great deal of help from Don while stuck in a muddy area with the wrong tires. We found Don to be quite knowledgeable about the RV life experience and the pride in his property shows. We would like to come back at the end of the season if we pass back through. I would highly recommend this property

My recent stays at Don's place were quiet and peaceful. There was power to my site and water available from a hose at the main house. I enjoyed walking in the area as well.

Wonderful host, beautiful spot.

Don was a fantastic host. He took us even though was supposed to be offseason, helped level us out and even fixed an issue with the door of RV. Beautiful spot on the lake with a lovely little rocky outcrop. Big open area for dogs to run, deer everywhere.

Kind and helpful

This is a great overnight spot. Don was incredibly supportive and communicative as several tornado warnings occurred. All is well, and I appreciated his help in locating everything I needed for a comfy night.

Amazing host, amazing space!

Absolutely amazing host! We had a wonderful stay at The Ranch, despite the poor weather. A welcoming, easy to communicate with host, Don made sure we had everything we needed and more. I cannot say enough good things about this amazing place and host. We will absolutely be back. What a great experience. Stunning views, we were visited by friendly deer (even babies!) every day, and it was a lovely stay.

Great experience!

Don was very accommodating and helpful! We arrived much later than expected (almost 11 pm) and Don met us at his road and proceeded to help us set up. He was generous and even offered to help us straighten out one of our crooked jack stands. The site was pretty near the lake and easy to maneuver with our travel trailer. I would recommend staying at Don’s!

Have to come back!

I was only passing through and just stayed the night but once I showed up I wish I could have stayed longer. The site is nicely treed with a short walk down to the lake. Services provided was 30 amp electrical and water. Lots of firewood available. Don quickly met us when we arrived and helped us get set up. He was very welcoming and enjoyable to talk to. I definitely will be looking to stay again the next time I am passing through!

First Trip

Don's property, The Ranch, is 10 acres of beautiful pine and spruce trees and a large grassed area that leads to a sandy beach and lake. Don was a wonderful host. He greeted us on arrival and showed us to our site which was exactly what we had asked for. We had a wonderful view of the lake and the deer that frequent it. This was our first time camping in a new RV. Don was patient and answered all our questions and was ever helpful. This was a delightful camping trip thanks in large part to Don. We highly recommend visiting Don at The Ranch.

Lakeside retreat

The Ranch is fairly close to Kenora and not too bad to find even if the internet does drop off, luckily they offer wifi, water and power. The place is really nice, grass and an easy walk down to the lake - very beautiful!
