This is a very private little slice of heaven that I've been pleased to steward for over 25 years. If you love the sound of frogs singing, and bullfrogs plucking their banjo strings, red-winged blackbirds trilling, you will love it here. The property is literally right across the road from the Mono Cliffs Provincial Park which boasts amazing trails, views and features the Niagara Escarpment. The 4-acre pond/wetland is designated 'Provincially Significant' by the Ministry of Natural Resources and is an important part of the Nottawasaga Watershed. This area is renowned for its terrain - the fields are rolling and the views are quite special. You will enjoy a private firepit and private overlook at the pond with hammock. The site isn't visible from the road. Our house is visible from the site but far enough away as to not disturb one another. We have an outhouse with lighting that will make your stay comfortable.

This beautiful spot was re-forested with pine a number of years ago, and was sectioned off from the surrounding farmland, which is now maintained by the mennonite community. It is 8 1/2 acres of wetland and forest, with a mown perimeter, and cool places to tuck into the forest for the night. The current owner was a special educator, and now is slowly turning the land into her homestead. There is a beautiful, spa quality outdoor shower next to a tidy and 'fancier than most' outhouse, a strawberry patch as well as wild alpine strawberries all over the property, a big dog and a small indoor cat keep her company. Here is what the land offers: -Bunkie in the Forest: A sweet 8x8 ft. space with new bunk and mattresses as of April 2023 -Strawberry Fields bunkie: an 10x12 space with a loft with a queen memory foam mattress and a main floor with a full futon and a small table -Campsites: Meadow, Forest and River spots. Close to each other, but you'd never know it! All three are chill and serene places. The property backs onto a ten-foot swimming hole in an otherwise shallow part of the Saugeen River. -RV Spot: With electric hook up ideal for RVs 30 feet and under -a connection to the organization, 'Black Folks Camp Too'!

Boyne Valley Provincial Park camping guide

Overview

About

Nestled in the heart of Ontario, Boyne Valley Provincial Park offers a tranquil escape into nature. With its scenic trails and diverse ecosystems, visitors can immerse themselves in the peaceful surroundings. The park's non-operating status means there are no campgrounds, but it remains a haven for hikers and nature enthusiasts seeking solitude amid the hardwood forests and river valleys.

When to go

The best time to visit Boyne Valley Provincial Park is during the spring and fall when the weather is mild and the natural scenery is at its most vibrant. Summer offers lush greenery, but be prepared for busier trails and potential heat waves. Winter visits can be magical with snow-covered landscapes, though some areas may be inaccessible.

Know before you go

  • Check the weather forecast before your visit to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience.
  • Be aware that as a non-operating park, facilities such as washrooms and visitor centres are not available.
  • Bring your own water and snacks, as there are no stores or food services within the park.
  • Respect the park's natural environment by staying on marked trails and practising Leave No Trace principles.
  • For emergencies or inquiries, contact the Wellington-Dufferin-Guelph Health Unit at (705) 435-2498.
