Weekend Trip to Back 2 Zen

Back 2 Zen is a private, tranquil camping spot thriving with an abundance of greenery and good vibes! We camped during very hot weather and were able to live and sleep comfortably due to the surrounding forest and short commute to the water. The highlight of our stay was the complete and total privacy offered, which is hard to find during the summer camping season. Communication with the hosts was quick and efficient. Fantastic camping site!

2 nights at Rowley's Saugeen River Adv. Acres

Loved camping at Chris's land, the river was great for a swim 🙌 He checked on us and made sure we have everything we need, and we felt welcomed.

1 night at The Sleeping Tree

I loved this beautiful location! Very serene, private spot filled with huge mature trees, close to town and beaches. A short bike ride or walk down to Lake Huron just south of the busy area of Sauble Beach. The beach there is beautiful and less busy than the main beach area. There's a charming little trail nearby the site that takes you down to the smaller Silver Lake which is great for paddling too. Jason was super helpful and great to communicate with as well.

3 nights at Back 2 Zen

We had a great time camping at this place! It’s lovely, quiet, and private. We were able to take some great astrophotography shots on the clear nights we had and loved seeing some cute porcupines in the trees while we made s’mores at the great fire pit :)

3 nights at Cabinco - Northern Bruce Peninsula

Very nice and quiet spot to getaway from busy life! So close to the beach as well! Thanks for awesome time!

4 nights at Back 2 Zen

Jackie and Simona were amazing. Super helpful and communicative hosts. The site was amazing - private, peaceful, and beautiful. Had an amazing time at this location and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a place to stay in the area. The pups loved the site too.

Weekend Trip to Rowley's Saugeen River Adv. Acres

We had a great weekend away on Chris’s private oasis! He situated us right on the water in a lovely shady spot, which was a huge bonus! He made it so personable which I loved, he even brought our kids a home made wood speaker so we could enjoy some tunes! He checked in on us and was a fantastic host. We can’t wait to return!

Weekend Trip to Freija

We had a lovely stay here! Easy check in and a very private space! We loved having the cooker provided, firewood and water! We will definitely be back again!

1 night at Rowley's Saugeen River Adv. Acres

I loved this peacefull place in nature, with the sound of bird and the river near of us! It was the first time in many travel we can take time to make firecamp. Chris was really nice with us, taking time to speak and clean the fireplace with weedeather. He show us were we can take a cool down in the water. Thanks for this great place and the kind owner.

Weekend Trip to Freija

Host was very accommodating. We had mixed up our arrival dates, and she was able to mend our booking. The property was very clean and secluded, which made our stay feel a lot more special.

Weekend Trip to Sunset Lakeview Oasis

The host is super friendly and we feel like home! We will come back!

Weekend Trip to Mojitoville

The camp set up is really beautiful , we as a group had a great time . Hoping to come back again.

Weekend Trip to Olde Eden on Mountain Lake

I recently stayed at Olde Eden, a private campsite near Mountain Lake, and it was exactly the kind of peaceful escape I was hoping for. I camped with a tent and found the site to be quiet, well-maintained, and surrounded by nature—perfect for anyone looking to unplug and recharge. The host was incredibly welcoming and helpful, making the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. One of the highlights was the location: it’s just a short distance from several great hiking trails, so there was plenty to explore during the day before coming back to a calm and cozy spot at night. I didn’t encounter any downsides during my stay, and I’d absolutely recommend Olde Eden to anyone looking for a quiet, scenic camping experience with easy access to the outdoors.

Weekend Trip to Yurt at Paisley Mill

As always— another wondering weekend at the yurt! It was rainy and cold, so we spent lots of time cozied up inside, reading and playing games. Grateful for the wood stove.

Weekend Trip to Saugeen Riverside Sites

Our site on the river was the perfect combination of feeling remote and private but without having to deal with backcountry toilets! Beautiful view of the Saugeen river and the main camping area of Hidden Valley was just far enough that we couldn’t hear anyone. We had read that the car would be parked a little away from site so we packed simply and had one small tent. Bill was a fantastic host - friendly, great with the kids and really helpful. We will most certainly back.

Weekend Trip to Stillwater Bunkie and RV Site

Cozy bunkie, friendly host. All essential things are provided. It was raining all day long during our stay but we had some relaxing time (with propane heater provided!) staying in the site.

Weekend Trip to Rowley's Saugeen River Adv. Acres

Very beautiful spot we had right beside the river. Chris was very helpful and came to pickup at street and helped us to get through the muddy trails. I recommend you take all wheel drive if it's wet.

Weekend Trip to Rowley's Saugeen River Adv. Acres

Chris’ property is very lush and secluded! He was an amazing host and was very polite. Though it rained majority of my stay, he checked in on me multiple times to make sure I was still okay setting up in the rain, and offered to help me. Am excited to book again with him!

2 nights at Stillwater Bunkie and RV Site

Had a nice solo stay, place was clean and well cared for. The pond is large and has different birds coming and going all day. Really enjoyed sitting on the porch watching them :) The bunkie is private but close enough to the house to feel safe in the evenings. Would stay again 100%. Thanks

Weekend Trip to Stillwater Bunkie and RV Site

A beautiful getaway from the city! The view is everything. From all the varieties of birds that are constantly giving a show to the spotless and well kept cabin that had all the attention to detail. We stayed 3 nights which was the perfect amount of down time to reset. Although the outdoor shower hadn’t been hooked up yet, our camping shower did the trick and it was great to have a spot for this. The outhouse was emptied daily and always 100% spotless! We truly enjoyed our stay and recommend it to anyone looking to unplug and relax for a few days!
