We live in a beautiful area nestled in the woods just seconds away from amenities, half a kilometer off Highway 17. It is very private here. We are homesteaders and love our land. We grow our own food, our own herbs and our own chickens. If you're here during the right time, you might see a few chicks running around . In our town we have a small grocery store, a convenience store with gas and we have an LCBO You can park in the driveway with you RV or on the lawn with your tent. You will have access to electricity and water. You can also use the bathroom and shower. You must provide your own extension cord and water hose I do have some here if need be but I am not sure they would be long enough. There is a beautiful Lake just down the street. Another half a kilometer away for you to go. Kayaking, swimming or just sightseeing. There is also a spot for you to climb the mountain. The marina here in town is absolutely beautiful and they have a lookout for you to climb. I believe it's 132 steps. This is the highlight of our little town.

Fieldview is a really special place that we want to share with all of you- - we have organic kitchen gardens, fruit trees, unique buildings (a small cabin with a traditional Russian trimwork, aka "gingerbread house on steroids", a unique cordwood outhouse), an apiary and a friendly habitat for all living beings. We love nature and live a simple, minimalist lifestyle, growing our own food, caring for our Mother Earth and creating beautiful things that last. Located on a quarter acre of land, tucked into a corner of a hay field, surrounded by fields, forests, and hedgerows, there is a house, cabin, woodworking shop, and a few outbuildings. We have plenty of lawn space if you want to play ball or just lay on the grass! We have a fire-pit, a spot to spread a blanket under a big White Pine or relax in a hammock in the shade of the two Balsam firs. The campsite has an electrical cord available for you phone/computer charging needs. There is a kitchen table and a few chairs for you and your family to enjoy outdoor meals and drinks. We have just built a brand new composting toilet equipped with a little sink (we provide hand towels, toilet paper and soap) and outdoor shower with COLD running water. We are working on having hot water available - please be patient with us! We ask not to smoke on the property (no tobacco, cigarettes, marijuana or vaping), please go for a walk on the road if you need to have a smoke. Clean up and pack all your garbage. We have a very social outdoor cat that would likely spend days with you. He is very, very interested in food and can not control himself, just be aware that he might steal and chew through bags. We specifically provided a plastic bin for you to cat-proof all your food. PLEASE NOTE: There is an ongoing fire ban on Manitoulin Island - no open fires or fireworks. Camp stoves are allowed.

Welcome to Beautiful Field Farm, our family-run orchard and homestead tucked into the quiet forests of Naughton, Ontario. This is more than just a place to camp — it’s a chance to slow down, breathe fresh air, and reconnect with nature in a peaceful farm setting. We’ve created a mix of secluded forest tent clearings and private RV pads, each surrounded by trees for privacy and space. This is primitive, off-grid camping — no hookups, no running water, and no electricity — just the essentials and the stars overhead. For your comfort, we’ve built a brand-new farm outhouse, kept clean and simple. Our guests love to spend time at the farm’s private pond, a half-acre oasis tucked at the back of the property. There are multiple hammocks set up around the water, perfect for reading, napping, or watching the dragonflies dance across the surface. On warm days, bring your chair or blanket and relax by the pond’s edge, or wander the orchard trails and forest paths that weave across the land. In season, you’ll find life on the farm buzzing with energy — fruit trees heavy with apples, bees working the blossoms, and cider pressing in the fall. We often have farm-fresh produce, firewood bundles, and local treats available for guests to purchase, so you can enjoy true farm-to-table experiences right on site. At night, the property comes alive in its own way: clear, dark skies for stargazing, the crackle of campfires in the distance, and the soft rustle of the forest. Whether you’re in a tent, camper, or RV, you’ll find this to be a safe, welcoming, and peaceful base for your getaway. This is simple, authentic camping — the kind that reminds you how good life feels when you unplug. Come pitch your tent, park your van, or set up your camper, and let Beautiful Field Farm be your home in the country. Life on the farm is never lonely — we share our space with a few friendly barn cats who love to wander the orchard and lounge in the sunshine. They’re curious and social, often coming by to say hello to campers. We also keep a lively chicken coop on the farm. Expect to hear the roosters crowing at sunrise — a true country alarm clock! The hens roam and cluck nearby, adding to the authentic farm atmosphere.

Living close to Georgian Bay, I’ve always wanted a waterfront property and I always believed in my heart that I will be blessed with one someday. After our family’s first camping trip to Manitoulin Island, my husband and I fell in love with “Spirit Island” and decided to find our own special place. Around Thanksgiving weekend of 2019, after several trips back and viewing a dozen properties, our search for a land was finally over and our wish came true. God was and is indeed faithful and in His own sweet time, has blessed us with a beautiful land. It has been quite a journey and with God’s grace, our place has been such a Sweet Oasis! It is our hope and prayer that we can share our blessings of this land to everyone who loves nature and respect God’s awesome creations! 😊 Sweet Oasis is a private camping get away. Tranquil & serene campsite provides you with a beautiful waterfront view. RV only campsite (dry camping). Forest, mature trees, birds & wildlife. Swimming, canoeing, kayaking fishing, biking, campfires & little adventures. Sweet memories await you. 🙂 Please note there is a quarry operation nearby which can be heard periodically. It may not be bothersome for others, but for those who are noise sensitive, that is something to be mindful of. Unfortunately, we don’t have any control over it. Wishing you happy trails! 😊

The best camping in La Motte Lake Provincial Park, ON guide

Overview

About

La Motte Lake Provincial Park is a hidden gem where tranquility meets the wild. Visitors can immerse themselves in activities like sport fishing, canoeing, and wildlife viewing amid a backdrop of second-growth mixed forest. The park's untouched landscapes offer a peaceful retreat for nature enthusiasts looking to escape the bustle of daily life.

When to go

The best time to visit La Motte Lake Provincial Park is during the warmer months, from late spring to early autumn, when the park's natural beauty is at its peak. Winter visits can be challenging due to heavy snowfall and limited access, making it less ideal for those unprepared for the cold Canadian climate.

Know before you go

  • Check the Sudbury and District Health Unit for any health advisories before your visit.
  • Be aware that there are no fire restrictions currently, but always verify before starting a campfire.
  • Remember, facilities are limited, so come prepared with necessary supplies and equipment.
  • For any accessibility concerns, contact the park in advance to ensure a comfortable visit.
  • Keep in mind the park's recreational classification when planning activities to align with conservation efforts.
