1 night at Wooden Gate Cider

We really loved our night of tent camping at Wooden Gate Cidery. The opportunity to have a tour of the cidery and orchards, and a private cider tasting was a great add-on! Definitely will be back. Great hosts! Thanks again!

70km from Criddle/Vane Homestead Provincial Park · 1 site · Tent · Pilot Mound, MB

Wooden Gate Cider is tucked in 200 acres of mixed hilly forest near the Pembina River valley. We have any number of fantastic tent sites for backwoods camping, as well as sites for rvs near the cidery. You will see plenty of wildlife, interact with farm livestock, and sit in the orchard amongst the fruit trees. We are a full service estate cidery with an onsite taproom and tasting area. Pers are welcome, but must be on leash or tether at all times, no exceptions
