Our ecological farm is your chance to enjoy nature. Planted with 100+ edible perennial species in the orchard garden, beeyard, hayfield, and forest with shiitake mushroom logs. Tiny House is close by the house and has power. The Hive site is closer to the house for easier vehicle access and proximity to the compost toilet and house wifi. This year the hayfields are in renewal so access and availability to sites are more limited. Creek culvert crossing is being repaired this spring so bookings to the Tree Island and Lookout sites are restricted until June at the latest. Tree Island is across the creek and best crossed with higher clearance vehicles or a 3 minute walk in. Let us know in advance if you would like firewood, outdoor solar shower access, water, or outlets to charge your devices. There is a hiking trail that extends along the entire property and a mini pond near the Lookout site. Seasonal fresh produce and berries for sale. Located steps to Tom Thomson Trail, 2km to Irish Mountain Lookout, and within minutes of Meaford, multiple Bruce Trail trailheads, and Georgian Bay beaches.

We are fortunate to call this ecologically diverse and extremely private piece of land home, and we are excited to welcome you here to explore the magic for yourself. Our 50 acre parcel would have comprised much of the maple bush for the original 400 acre farm property. The stone fence rows and laneways lined with large boulders are remnants from the days or horse drawn carriages, likely put in place hundreds of years ago. In addition to the maple bush there are several acres of cedar bush, open wild flower meadows, as well as fields dotted with larger shade-giving trees. A small half acre of the property is used to farm fresh cut flowers which you are welcome to visit. We also have a kitchen garden, 10 egg-laying hens, 2 very friendly outdoor cats, and our black lab Abby who will likely greet you with a bark (she is very friendly). In the summer months you can enjoy a handful of lakes for swimming and boating all within 10-15 minutes of our property. We are happy to share details and locations. We are conveniently located just off of Highway 10, ten minutes north of Markdale and 25 minutes south of Owen Sound. If you are headed north to Tobermory, we are a perfect mid way point if coming from Toronto, with Tobermory just an hour and a half north of us.

Learn more about this land: !!!!!!ONLY area A is still available to camp on!!!! The land is framed by the historic Bruce Trail to the north, Billy Bishop airport (only a few small prop-private flights daily) to the west, Concession 6 N on the East, and Highway 26 on the south end of the property.   There is a forest on the north end of our land where the bruce trail runs through (C) and the farm sits more to the south end (A). There's a pine-forest that one has to hike into (B- see map in photos). Generally, the area is close to swimming in Lake Huron, the property is large (100 hectares) and the neighborhood is large grain. This means you can have a chunk of the forest all to yourself. For area A you can drive in the main driveway and park by the house/ barn or on the field. Or walk to a camping spot. No 4 wheel drive is necessary. Please stay away from the Barn as it is dangerous to be close by.  For area C you can access the fields from Concession 6 N at one of the gates past (North) of the driveway. You will need a 4-wheel drive to not get stuck in the field. Please do not park on the agricultural field.  For area B You will park your car behind a gate right off Highway 26 and hike in to find a site to pitch a tent. There are about 3 spots for cars behind the first set of Pines. You might need a 4-wheel drive.  It's completely up to you where you set up camp. We ask that you do not light any open fires as this is a coniferous forest. Feel free to walk in as far you want to find your spot. If you walk too far you will come up to a field and the farmhouse. We ask that you do not camp on the agricultural fields.

Weekend Trip to Back 2 Zen

This is certainly a nice private area hidden away from everyone. I never saw anyone the entire time I was there which is what I was looking for. Unfortunately the weather didn’t cooperate at all while I was there so I didn’t get to explore much beyond the campsite. My hosts were responsive to my questions and have a nice area laid out for camping. One very important thing to note is their location next to a military base. Maybe I just had poor timing but the time I was there had a whole lot of automatic weapons fire as well as loud explosions. Perhaps this doesn’t occur very often but I experienced it and people with noise sensitivity, like myself, would best be aware of the possibility.

2 nights at Time at the Shores

Staying at Pedro’s felt like an exclusive adult backyard “cabin out.” Pedro’s hospitality was second to none. We felt right at home from the moment of our arrival. The cabin is perfect for unplugging with the comforts of electricity, light, mini fridge, heater & A.C. The outdoor shower and toilet we’re a highlight - again well equipped and clean. Having access to the outdoor BBQ & Grill over the fire made for some yummy dinners. Ask Pedro where to get the best meat in the area. Who isn’t a fan of a hot tub under the stars and twinkle lights. A relaxing perk that was used every evening we were there. Behind the cabin offers two muskoka chairs tucked in the trees overlooking a field where you can catch a beautiful sunset. There are chickens and an array of other animals that were also cool to visit. Saugeen River Access #3 is a short drive away as well as another access point just down the road. Don’t sleep on this sweet little piece of paradise, with Port Elgin only 10 mins away there is so much to do in this beautiful area. Can’t wait to return.

Gillian’s place is ideally situated along the Farmers Folly bikepacking route, making it a perfect stop for bike packers. She was incredibly accommodating, adjusting the check-in time to fit my itinerary seamlessly. Unlike other campsites that required a minimum two-night stay for the Victoria Day weekend, Gillian allowed me to book just one night, which I greatly appreciated. I highly recommend this campsite for anyone seeking convenience and flexibility!

Winter camping in the cozy forest dome was 100 percent perfect. Fran is super welcome and accommodating my extra chair request, wood for the stove when needed... The dome is thoughtfully planted amongst the trees and situated as to watch the sun or moon rise in just the right spot from the comfort of a most comfortable bed. I really appreciated getting to use the wood stove. It worked really well and was east to control the temps. My favorite part other the shower was just sitting in quiet and peaceful calm looking out the window... like a cat...at the trees. Thank you so much Fran. Greatly appreciated. H

3 nights at Stillwater Bunkie and RV Site

Our visit to the Stillwater Bunkie was a great few days! We had private access to a lake, a well-maintained firepit and composting toilet, and a cozy bunkie. Despite being out at the Bunkie in mid-November, we were able to keep very warm inside the Bunkie with the wood burning stove and the provided propane heater. The Bunkie and property came stocked with lots of thoughtful supplies (ex some basic dishes and cutlery, water for washing dishes and 4L of drinkable water per day, blankets, pillows, toilet paper, hand sanitizer, BBQ, firewood, marshmallow roasting sticks, axe, etc). The sofa bed and loft bed were very comfortable! The use of the fridge in their garage and a portable power station in the Bunkie are huge bonuses that many other listings don't provide. The listing mentioned an outdoor shower which we thought would be working but wasn't connected. Not a big deal for a few days but it definitely changed how we planned to keep clean and fresh. Colin was very easily accessible via messaging on this app and was quick to provide any extra supplies we required during our stay (for example, a garbage bin as listed in their welcome/info binder provided inside the Bunkie). Overall, we enjoyed our time out at the Stillwater Bunkie and I would recommend it to others! See

Lion's Head Provincial Park camping guide

Overview

About

Lion's Head Provincial Park, a nature reserve on the Bruce Peninsula, offers visitors a unique blend of adventure and serenity. With its ancient white cedars and rare plant species, the park is a haven for hikers and nature enthusiasts. The towering cliffs and rock formations provide a dramatic backdrop for exploration, while the absence of campgrounds ensures a truly wild experience.

When to go

The best time to visit Lion's Head Provincial Park is during the warmer months, from late spring to early fall, when the trails are accessible and the flora is in full bloom. Winter visits can be challenging due to snow and ice, but offer a serene, snowy landscape for the well-prepared adventurer.

Know before you go

Be aware that Lion's Head is a day-use park only, with no overnight camping facilities available.
Remember to pack out all waste as there are no trash bins provided in the park.
Check for any fire bans or boil water advisories before your visit.
Wear sturdy footwear to navigate the rocky terrain and protect the delicate ecosystem.
Plan your visit between 8:30am to 5pm to make the most of daylight hours for your adventures.
