Welcome to Boondocking on 135 Acres! The property spans across 135 acres, and includes well-kept woodlands, groomed open fields, treed edges and water views. Our boondocking site is located in the middle of one of our private open fields. THIS SITE DOES NOT HAVE A WASHROOM. It is perfect for guests travelling in a self contained travel vehicle. THIS SITE DOES NOT HAVE A WASHROOM. Tent camping is also welcome in this field, but guests need to bring their own portable camping toilets as we do not allow the digging of "cat holes". The land is well maintained and the site was thoughtfully chosen, but the wildlife doesn’t know that! You can expect to witness deer sightings, rabbits, a variety of birds, and if you’re quiet and lucky, so much more! NOTE REGARDING CAMPSITES: In the past, we did have a number of campsites located in the woods (as pictured in many of our past guest photos), however, due to unforeseen circumstances, we regrettably had to close them down. We invite you to stop in for a night or stay with us for a few peaceful nights.

Welcome to Goats and Gardens, our small working hobbyfarm where goats graze in the pasture, chickens wander through the grass, gardens grow with the seasons, and there's always something going on. Stay your way — camp inside our one-acre animal pasture or choose our private farmstay suite for four walls and a comfortable bed. Your stay is group-exclusive. We host only one booking group at a time. Book the campsite or suite and the other won't be rented to another party. Groups are welcome to book both. We think some of the best moments happen when there's simply room for them to happen. A new discovery. Hunting for frogs by the pond. Watching the goats wander past. A conversation by the campfire. Or just spending time together somewhere a little different. We make space for you to make memories ... The pasture campsite includes access to a hot outdoor shower, clean composting toilet and complimentary firewood. The farmstay suite offers space to sleep, relax and prepare simple meals, plus a private indoor washroom and access to the same outdoor shower. However you stay, the off-grid cabin in the pasture is available to enjoy — escape the bugs, spend a rainy afternoon or simply watch the animals wander by. This is a real hobbyfarm, not a resort. The animals, gardens and seasons set their own rhythm, so no two visits are quite the same. Explore, ask questions, spend time with the animals or simply enjoy the farm your own way. Goats and Gardens especially suits families introducing children to farm life and camping, couples looking for something different, and people who enjoy slowing down. Some guests come for their first adventure. Others return to see what's growing, what's changed and what the animals are up to this time. Come make our little corner of the countryside your own for a while.

It was 1984 when John found his ‘diamond in the rough’, 20 acres with an orchard on the outskirts of Brantford. O.K., so the house was nothing to write home about but perfect for building a construction yard…no neighbors except for the family across the road that used their property to build log homes. By 1987 the old house was gone, a new one was being built and a shop for working on heavy equipment had been located about 200 ft. from Dr. the back door. It wasn’t until 1996 that things changed very much. Yes, the property around the house had benefitted from a wide array of trees and shrubs that John saved from the construction/demolition jobs he had done and that still thrive today but no big projects (except for equipment purchases) were ongoing. A chance meeting with the neighbor across the road one day resulted in the following dinner conversation, ‘How was your day’ I chirped. ‘Not bad, so-and-so didn’t come in; the truck broke down and I took it for repair; I bought the property across the road, and oh, yeah I’ll need a ride after dinner to pick up the truck’ was John’s casual reply. ‘What was that’? I pressed. ‘Yes, I need a ride after dinner to pick up the truck’ he repeated with a bit more volume. Of course like anyone, I had questions, ‘Do you want peas or corn with dinner’? ‘What time do you want to go to get the truck’? ‘The property across the road’, 10 acres, still has the 4 storey barn with its twin tiled silos which was built in 1914 and the big white house with wrap around porch that once was home to a Doctor and his family. Built so the Doctor could see his patients in the front with the family living in the back was very common in the day. Things remained relatively peaceful until 2000 when after studying alpacas for more than 6 years I bought our first three. Back in 2000 alpacas and llamas were not frequently seen on farms and because they could been seen from the road they received A LOT of attention. People driving by would stop and ask about them, ask if they could take a picture or two and that was when I would hear over and over again ‘You have a beautiful place here, I wish I/we could stay’. Well, if you want to visit and stay in the city it’s doable, we call it a hotel. But visiting a farm and staying well, that isn’t so easy. Each year we would see more and more families coming to ‘The Farm’ as they would call it. Some came to see the alpacas and horses, some came for a stroll and to check out the horse drawn milk and bread delivery wagons, some to have family birthday parties, others to have engagement/wedding/Christmas card pictures…and so many asked if there was any way they could spend a day or two. In 2021 during a conversation with a friend I mentioned we were in the process of gutting the 1100 sq. ft. space downstairs and turning it into an Airbnb! Right away she said, ‘I don’t know why you don’t have a Hipcamp? You’ve got that great area by the new barn that Hipcampers would love’! After a little investigation I found out what a Hipcamp was and the rest is history.

Welcome to Fitz Farm Manor — a peaceful countryside retreat built with love and care. After Gerry and his dad sold their garden centre and nursery, we built this home and raised our four boys here (they like to joke they were our first Airbnb guests — the non-paying kind!). Now retired, Gerry from lawn care and Rosemary from managing a seniors’ complex, we spend our days gardening, harvesting vegetables, and preserving the bounty of our land. We love hosting friends and family, and you might meet a few during your stay. Our property is nestled in a quiet rural area where mornings begin with birdsong and evenings settle into the gentle chorus of crickets and tree frogs. A walk down our peaceful road takes you past dairy farms and fields of corn, soybeans, and hay — often without passing a single car. The grounds are designed for gathering and relaxation. Each summer, we host family reunions and church picnics with up to 75 guests enjoying the heated pool, hammocks, patio, and spacious lawn. Campers have access to a large grassy area bordered by maples, oaks, and a wooded stretch to the west — perfect for pitching tents or parking campers. Amenities include: - Heated swimming pool with pool toys - Washroom with hot/cold water and shower (just inside the patio doors) - Outdoor sink with potable water - Tables, chairs, picnic tables, and a barbecue - Children’s slide and a hammock structure that holds up to 8 hammocks Whether you're here for a relaxing getaway or a work assignment, we hope you’ll feel the warmth and welcome of Fitz Farm Manor. Come unwind, explore, and make yourself at home. --- Let me know if you'd like a shorter version for social media or a punchier headline to go with it!

Weekend Trip to The Farm

I stayed at the Sunrise Spot and absolutely enjoyed it. It was private spot, with nothing but the sounds of the country and the farm to enjoy. Karen was an absolute sweetheart and made the stay even better. She’s so friendly, great communication on the app and welcoming at the site. It’s incredibly easy to get lost in conversation with her. I’d happily stay here again and definitely recommend the Sunrise Spot to anyone looking for a relaxing, country, campspot, getaway.

1 night at The Farm

We had such a great time at The Farm. My friend and I just needed a quick trip out of the city, and this was exactly what we were looking for. The location is really nice. You're close to Brantford and Paris if you need anything, but it still feels far enough out that you actually get some peace and quiet. Best of both worlds. We originally booked the Canadian site but switched over to Sunrise. Nothing against the first spot, we just checked the weather and realized we didn't need the overhead cover since it wasn't going to rain. I'm really glad we moved, though. Sunrise is more set back from the other sites, and the two mounds on either side give it a nice enclosed, private feel. Plus you wake up to the sun coming up right in front of you, which is pretty great. Karen is the real standout here. She knows so much about the animals, she has all the local history, and she's genuinely funny. She really made our stay memorable. Do not skip the farm tour, it's worth doing. The camping itself was great, but Karen is worth the price of admission all on her own. We'd definitely come back!

Weekend Trip to Grindstone Creek Farm in Burlington

Loved the goats, be wary of the turkey they're a fiesty one, pecked me in the rump Very lovely stay, beautiful decorating. If they'd let me rent it full time and work there for cheap I'd move to Canada right away! Thanks for the memories.

Flat gravel driveway and lots of flat grassy land. You'll have a few nice options of where to camp when you arrive :)

Weekend Trip to Sweet Pond Camping

Very enjoyable. One of my better stays this year👍

Take a short stroll down to the pond. Hear the bullfrogs, catch a glimpse of the sunfish or bass, and maybe a blue heron or our resident great horned owl.

Weekend Trip to Hidden Oasis Near Elora

I took my son for a lovely stay. The camp sites are spacious and well manicured situated alongside a pond. My son spent a good part of the day catching and releasing many fish. Perfect escape.

1 night at The Farm

My stay here was so much more than just a place to pitch a tent, it was a genuinely transformative experience. Karen went above and beyond as a host. She took the time to give us an amazing tour of the property, but what truly set this trip apart was the incredible conversation, wisdom, and immense inspiration she shared with us. You can tell how much love and care she puts into her land and her guests. If you’re looking for a peaceful stay hosted by an extraordinary, warm, and inspiring soul, look no further. I left feeling completely recharged and deeply grateful. I can't wait to come back! Thank you, Karen, for your incredible hospitality and for sharing your beautiful haven with us!

Bronte Creek Provincial Park camping guide

Overview

About

With many interpretive programs and amenities near ravines and marshland, Bronte Creek Provincial Park combines convenience with the outdoors. Separated by Bronte Creek, the day-use areas and campground are separate—the east site has a huge day-use area with a 1.8-acre pool, playground, and playbarn, while the campground side, open from April to October, has 400+ roomy sites. Visitors can enjoy disc golf or hiking one of the four hiking trails through the Bronte Creek Valley in summer and tobogganing, cross-country-skiing, and snowshoeing near the ravine in winter. The Spruce Lane Farm House is a living history museum demonstrating early farm life including live farm animals.

Notable campgrounds

Best for ravine exploring: It’s easy to dip your toes into the creek from nearby Woodland and Ravine campgrounds. Ravine sites also have more privacy than the rest.
Best for groups: If you’re here for a large family gathering, the Prairie Campground is closest to the group camping, as well as the camp store and off-leash dog trail.
Best for larger RVs: The Prairie loop is created to fit larger RVs but is suitable for tents and smaller RVs as well.

Tips for snagging a campsite

Mid-week is less busy during the summer months.
Holiday weekends are busy, so book on shoulder season or midweek for less competition.
Online bookings open five months in advance at 7am. Have alternate sites ready in case yours are taken.

When to go

Located near apple orchards, Bronte Creek is great to visit in fall for the colours and quieter off-season. Spring is a great time to catch sight of the hundreds of owls, merlin, and hawks in the park, and even better, springtime is when most of the farmstead’s baby animals are born. The large day-use area opposite of the campground is open year-round.

Know before you go

RV electrical outlets can be far from the RV—bring a long extension cord.
If planning to hike, bring some water-resistant boots and rain gear, as trails are notoriously muddy and slippery in spring. The ravine is deep at points (up to 50 metres straight down) so wear proper shoes and tread carefully.
Bring bikes to zoom around the campground on the crushed gravel road.
Bronte has two leash-free dog areas: one half-kilometre loop in the day-use area and a two-kilometre loop at the north section of the campground.
