Pretty spot along the river. Access to kayaking and tubing during warm weather. Michael was a friendly host. Good privacy between sites. One heads up, Google maps will tell you that you’ve arrived, but you’ll need to go just a little further before you see the red building.

The Old Red Mill Oasis is heaven on earth in Central Wisconsin! The whole property along the Big Plover River has been carefully curated, with gazing benches showcasing meditative views. I loved to listen to the rush of the river at the Red Mill, and walk the manicured trails. My doodle dog Yummy is in absolute bliss on the land! The mushroom hunting was sublime in the prime! Michael is such a gracious host and wants to make your experience a memory to last forever. The kayaking is supreme, with a few different options. It's a treat when the heron leads you back to camp. Thank you, Michael!

The campsite was lovely. Michael was such a great host! He delivered wood and even started our fire for us Friday night when I didn’t have a lighter 😌 He told us where to start upstream for a paddling trip and also was welcoming and sweet to our dog. We plan on visiting again!

Michael was an amazing host. He had everything there available that you could possibly want. It is a really secluded and beautiful spot. We definitely want to come back again to kayak or go tubing down the river.

What an indescribably beautiful place on this sweet earth. Michael's land, a long strip of wooded shoreland on the Plover river, is one man's life's wo. It is a gorgeous mix of wild wonder and gentle landscaping. Michael is a wonderful host. He did all he could to make our stay as memorable as possible. I cannot recommend his little paradise more.

Had the honor of being the first visitors to this HipCamp! Michael was a great host and very open to feedback on how he can make the place even better for his guests. He has lots of ideas and is very excited to share this special place with others. The entire property is gorgeous and you can tell he has put a lot of effort into it. My dogs loved the easy access to the water and sniffing around the trails.
The HipCamp is right on the Plover River. Occasionally kayakers and canoes will pass by. The water is fairly shallow through there, so it was great for the dogs to play and for us humans to wade in. There are areas that get deeper as well and a place by the rapids you can sit and have the water rush around you like a whirlpool. Tubes and kayaks are also available to take on the river. We did a bit of floating down the river on the tubes!
Nice spacing between the sites. There is a central area between the sites with some games such as giant Jenga and disc golf. Firewood available to purchase onsite as well for a great price. The host, Michael, also has a small camper in this area but did not stay onsite, just came by to check on things and make sure we had everything we needed. Forgot to bring our tripod for cooking over the fire and he magically made one appear!
Can’t wait to see what else Michael has in store for the property. Will definitely be back again! Thank you for an amazing weekend!

When to go
The Fraser Valley is a year-round destination with mild-but-wet weather from November to February. Higher alpine regions may get snow (with the closest skiing to Abbotsford being across the border on the slopes of Mount Baker), but summer is peak season for camping, especially at lakes, and valley temperatures can be many degrees hotter than at the coast and mountains.
Know before you go
- Most provincial parks take site reservations in advance (recommended throughout the high season of summer) and give an early priority booking window to BC residents.
- The Trans-Canada Highway, which runs through Abbotsford and neighbouring municipalities, is the main thoroughfare to points east and west and can become very congested during rush hours on weekdays and holiday weekends.
- Travelling across the border to the United States can also be very busy during weekends and holidays, requires a valid passport, and is subject to closures (you may need to return via a different crossing than anticipated).
