Hi there! 🌞 We're thrilled to welcome you to Agape Gardens, our 30-acre homestead nestled in the beautiful Gatineau Hills. More than just a place to stay, Agape Gardens is a dream we've cultivated with love—a space where people can slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with nature. Open year-round, Agape Gardens offers a variety of unique accommodations, each with its own character and charm. Stay in one of our cozy glamping bell tents, our minimalist off-grid A-frame cabin, a rustic handcrafted cabin overlooking the pond, a peaceful tent campsite, or an RV/camper site surrounded by nature. Whether you're seeking a solo retreat, a romantic getaway, a family adventure, or simply a break from the pace of everyday life, you'll find space here to rest and recharge. As you explore the property, you'll discover forest trails, a pond, wildflower gardens, free-ranging chickens, and our growing edible landscape. We are passionate about regenerative living and have designed the land using permaculture principles to create a thriving ecosystem that supports both people and nature. For those looking to enhance their stay, access to our Wild Spa is available as an optional add-on. The Wild Spa includes a wood-fired sauna, hot tub, cold plunge, and outdoor relaxation spaces designed to help you unwind and reconnect. Traditional venik rituals using aromatic birch branches are also available as a unique wellness experience. Our hope is that your time here offers an opportunity to slow down, reconnect with nature, and enjoy the simple pleasures that are often overlooked in daily life—whether that means sitting by a campfire, watching the stars, exploring the trails, or simply listening to the wind through the trees.

Dog Friendly Cliffside Cabin

41km from Fitzroy Provincial Park · 1 site

I built this cabin to be a romantic, cozy off-grid getaway for humans , but if most of our guests are being honest, the dogs are the ones having the best time. There’s a cozy queen bed with fresh linens and a down duvet. A covered deck with handcrafted rocking chairs for sunset views. A private fire area below for campfires and stargazing. LED lighting, a Bluetooth speaker, a Jackery battery bank, clean well water, lanterns, an outdoor shower, and a clean outhouse. I’ll even haul your gear in by ATV so you can settle in without the hassle. And after all that work, most guests still seem to agree on the real highlight: Watching their dogs absolutely lose their minds with happiness. More than anything, this place has become a favourite for people who want to give their dogs the kind of freedom they rarely get anywhere else. Most of our guests tell us over and over, that their favourite part is watching their best friends make their own decisions, run the trails, sniff everything, chase chipmunks, explore the forest, and basically have the time of their lives. Of course, the humans tend to enjoy themselves too. The cabin sits on a west-facing cliff on our private 164-acre property. Once you arrive, you’ll have the feeling of having the whole place to yourselves. The trails, the forest, the quiet, the sunsets, it all feels wonderfully removed from the usual noise. In summer, the forest is lush, green, and full of life. The days are warm, the trails are shaded, and evenings at the cliff often bring a breeze and a beautiful sunset. For dogs, there’s endless space to explore. For people, it’s a chance to unplug, slow down, and enjoy a kind of peace that’s getting harder to find. You’ll have access to 10 km of private trails through forest, ridgelines, and lakeshore. Wildlife is plentiful, and depending on the season, you may spot deer, foxes, loons, and maybe even a family of bald eagles! There’s no electricity or running water, but that’s part of the magic. This is real off-grid comfort: simple, peaceful, and thoughtfully set up so you can enjoy nature without giving up a good night’s sleep. Whether you come for a quiet escape, or just to watch your dog have the best weekend of their life, this is the place to be.

Camping at the 103 Acre woods is part of the Marlborough Forest. It has groomed pathways in the meadow and rustic pathways through the woods for your hiking pleasure. If you are interested in backwoods camping, it's easy to do here, park your car in the driveway, grab your gear, and head to the back forty! If camping is not your thing and you just want some private land for the day, such as a photo shoot, or just wandering around, firepit lunch or firepit dinner, just book a site. If you reserve both sites, the entire land becomes yours for the time you are here. I only list 2 sites for camping so you will have plenty of space and privacy from any other campers. Lots of space to spread out and have your privacy. If you want complete privacy, reserve both sites! For the tenting campsites, I have 2 available. One is in the front 40 near the playstructure and closer to the house. It's called the "Cedars". You can drive directly to your campsite. The other campsite is a short hike into the woods and is just off to the side. It's called the "103 Paces". When staying at the 103 Paces campsite, you can drive through the meadow and park just outside of the woods. From there, there is a lawncart you can use to transport your gear to the campsite. Each campsite has a firepit for your use and is close to a shared composting toilet. If you are staying in an RV, you can park in the driveway and still access all the other parts of the property. Tent campers can select anywhere they want to pitch a tent and enjoy the beauty of the 103 Acre woods. Depending on where you choose to camp, you might be able to drive right up to your site. Firepit and wood available for use providing there is no burn ban. Water from the hose attached to the house is available for use. You are welcome to use the outside outlets to charge your devices. RV Electric hookup can be used for an extra fee. I have a composting toilet in a privacy cabana. There will be sanitizer to sanitize your hands. The composting toilet is a shared facility for both campsites. Comes with toilet paper. If you prefer to have your own composting toilet, you can add that on for an extra when you are booking. It's 10.00 more for your stay. I have a few water jugs to have water at your site if you don't have your own jug. A compost bin is available for food. A trash can is provided for waste. Recycle bins are in use as well for paper and plastic. I have patio table that can be used at your site if it's in the front 40. Back forty, I have a smaller more portable table that can be used. It's not too heavy to port. Firewood is not necessary to bring, there is lots of wood locally here on the property to use, you just have to gather it up yourself. I have a wheelbarrow that can be used to transport it to your site. There are wetlands and forests and meadows. There is very little light pollution here. Come and gaze at the stars If you are lucky, you might get to hear the resident whippoorwill, he is nocturnal. The sky is beautiful at night. Wake up to the sounds of many birds. There is a play structure for kids with 2 slides and a bridge, monkey bars, swings, firepole, and climbing wall. There are many things to find in the back 40. You might find a vintage car bumper, and in the spring if you look really hard, you might come across Lady Slipper orchids. They are stunning in the wild. If you want to trudge through the wetlands, be sure to bring your rubber boots. In the front 40 you can take some fun pictures with a vintage abandoned front end of an Aston Martin truck. The 103 Acre woods is conveniently located 3K from the Rideau River and Canal in Burritt's Rapids. Burritts Rapids has a nice "Tip to Tip" trail you can hike on the island of Burritts Rapids. Also there is the Henry Street Park, which has a small beach on the Rideau River. The Rideau Trail is located nearby as well. There are many entrances to the Rideau Trail just minutes away. Located 10 minutes or so from Merrickville. Great fishing along the Rideal Canal lock system. Merrickville has a small beach on the Rideau River. Merrickville has a wonderful Gelato place "Stella Luna". Get your Gelato and walk back to see the boats in the historic Rideau Canal. Lots of history in Merrickville and Burritt's Rapids. If camping is not your thing and you just want some private land for the day, such as a photo shoot, or just wandering around, firepit lunch or firepit dinner, just book a site. If you reserve both sites, the entire land becomes yours for the time you are here. There are 2 well-behaved chiahuahua's who live on the property. They will see you at the meet and greet. They will for sure welcome you to their yard. Your dog is welcome, just remember to pickup after them.

Weekend Trip to Misty Meadows Eco Retreat

We had such a great time! This was our first camping experience as a family, and Chris’s land was exactly what we needed. Having the water right there made it extra special, the kids loved kayaking, playing in the water, and of course the trampoline was a huge hit. It was peaceful, beautiful, and had plenty for the kids to do, which made it perfect for our group. Such a fun and memorable first camping trip. We’d definitely come back!

We loved this place so much! The overlooking patio, dock and beautiful swimming lake were the best. All the amenities made camping that much more convenient. If felt very private and so nice for the dog to be free to roam off leash for our stay. I was concerned a bit about proximity to the road, but it really was not an issue for us.

7 nights at Fagan Lake Heights

If you're looking for a campsite that truly has a bit of everything, this is the place! The campground is wonderfully secluded and thoughtfully set up, complete with a great gazebo and a clean outhouse. We loved the well-shaded tent sites—the gravel-covered ground provided a fantastic, level base that made setting up our large inflatable tent an absolute breeze. One of the highlights was the outdoor hot shower, which felt like a luxury after a day outdoors. The property sits by a quiet, peaceful stretch of Fagan Lake, and just hanging out by the dock was incredibly relaxing. Above all else, the hospitality is what makes this spot truly special. Eric is incredibly welcoming and super fun to chat with . Hr genuinely goes out of his way to make sure his guests have a memorable stay. We couldn't have asked for a better experience!

Weekend Trip to White Wolf Acres

Cabin #2 is a great setup for larger groups and families without mobility issues. Everything you need is there. And the animals can be rather entertaining.

Weekend Trip to Cartwright Springs Brewery

Site D was huge - we were really under-utilizing it with just 3 people in 2 tents. Lots of more spots for tents, and even more good locations for hammocks. Andre was very friendly and helpful. The food options aren't fancy, but the corn dogs were really well done, and it was great not having to worry about carrying food or drinks for dinner on our bikes. There were lots of mushrooms on site - I think both chanterelle and portobello among the edible varieties, although we weren't 100% confident so we didn't actually indulge. A better-trained forager could do well!

Such a charming and magical spot. A little slice of heaven that truly lets you disconnect from the city. It’s incredibly peaceful and quiet, and the host makes you feel at home. The site is very clean and full of charm. We would absolutely recommend!

Weekend Trip to Fagan Lake Heights

3rd time staying at Eric's Hipcamp. 4th time is booked for next weekend. Despite summertime, fishing was great and we also managed to catch a few of the Perseids meteors at night after dinner. Eric is also an extremely generous and gracious host. Could not recommend more highly.

It is a very relaxing and private nature place. The owner named Don was very accomodating and welcoming. We can asked water at anytime. Clean and organized. We're gonna try the other site next time.

1 night at White Wolf Acres

Cabin #1 at White Wolf is a beautiful setup. All the little touches well thought out. It was nice having power to charge devices. The steps and bed height worked well for my sister's minor mobility challenges. We would have liked to stay longer.

3 nights at Perth Camping by the River

This site was very private and set up nicely. There was a large jug of water, plenty of firewood, a picnic bench, and a clothes line. Don was just a text away but respected my desire to be alone. I didn't hear any of the other campers. I even liked the clear glass door on the outhouse. I would definitely recommend this spot.

4 nights at Fagan Lake Heights

This was our second, and not our last time camping at Fagan lake. The site is ideal for us: gazebo for shelter, full size BBQ, firewood included, lake access with canoes, but most of all it is private and spacious. Eric is a wonderful host, checking to see if we needed anything and even dropping off some books we might be interested in. We simply love it here!

Fitzroy Provincial Park camping guide

Overview

About

Fitzroy Provincial Park is a small park less than an hour from downtown Ottawa. It’s the ideal destination when you want to combine rural relaxation with some urban escapes. Visitors go swimming in the Ottawa River, explore area forests (including a century-old White Pine forest and a group of 200-year-old bur oaks), and tackle beginner-friendly hiking trails. The 2.4-kilometre Terraces Trail, in particular, should be on every camper’s list. The park’s shale pillars remind hikers of the powerful glaciers that once moved through here, as do the massive boulders left behind. Keep an eye out for the small waterfall near the beginning of the path.

Notable campgrounds

Best for families: Two Rivers has a small, shallow beach.
Best for hikers: Pine Grove is set near the park’s two small hiking trails.

Tips for snagging a campsite

All Ontario Provincial Parks accept reservations up to five months in advance of arrival. Waterfront sites and summer weekends book up quickly, so plan accordingly.
As such, if you miss out on grabbing a reservation when they open, wait patiently for the four-month mark. Reservations cannot be changed or cancelled more than four months in advance. After that, some cancellations will roll in.
Campers can shorten their stay and receive a full refund if they cancel before 12pm on their day of departure. If you need a last-minute site, check around noon to see if you can grab one of those freshly cancelled spots.

When to go

Fitzroy is open from mid-May until mid-October. Like most Ontario provincial parks, it has a complete liquor ban on Victoria Day (the second to last Monday of May) and for the 10 days preceding it. Campsites book especially early for the Canada Day long weekend (July 1). As the park is just down the road from Ottawa, this is a very busy time for the entire region.

Know before you go

Fitzroy’s boat launch can accommodate small boats, kayaks, and canoes. However, on occasion, the fluctuating water level of the river affects availability.
The Ottawa River is well stocked with walleye, pike, bass, and panfish. Good fishing sites in Fitzroy include the boat launch, along the shore, and near Butternut Island (where the Ottawa and Carp Rivers meet, accessible by boat). A provincial fishing license is required.
The nearby community of Carp is home to a popular farmers’ market, cafes, and shops but is best known for its annual garlic festival, a must-see for foodies.
