A gem of a camping/paddling spot! The area for tent is a flat area with firepit, outhouse, and access to the river for swimming, paddling. Access to fridge inside the cabin while you stay if you wish. It is close to other neighbours and sound travels easily on the river so campers must keep noise to a minimum.
Grumman aluminium canoe and paddleboard available for use.

Everything was just as described and it was a wonderful spot to stay at. Joanne was very helpful as well. Thank you!
I loved staying at Joanne's..Beautiful scenery, relaxing ,quiet ..Joanne was an exception host ,very pleasant to deal with, very accommodating ..Beautiful spot ..Yhanks for sharing you beautiful place with me Joanne ..I will definitely book again 🥂
We loved every second that we were there! You park right where you camp, there's the cabin with utensils you can use, and the deck is just a few steps away! We will come back for sure!
My gf and I had a wonderful camp on Johanne’s property. There’s lots of amazing scenery, including a dock which sits on top of the muskoka river giving you the perfect view of the sunset.
The extra amenities that came with it made our stay extra special, taking out the canoe for a joyous ride on a calm almost glass like river bed.
There is also a waterfall up the road, about a 30 minute walk.
Needless to say we will be coming back!

place was absolutely gorgeous, host had many things for us to do up there! she was so helpful when it came to directions into town and good places to eat. definitely visit this spot!
Joanne's property was perfect for us. It is right on the water and has plenty of space to set up your tent. We were provided a canoe and life jackets which was fantastic for checking out the nearby rapids and small falls. It is on a quiet road that you can safely walk on. If you're looking to disconnect from the world it helps that the cell service is intermittent. We were so grateful that Joanne allowed access to her cabin to plug our phones in and boil water with the kettle. She was very responsive and provided all of the helpful information we needed for our stay. She was even so kind to check in on us as a bad storm was crossing over Ontario and she wanted to make sure we were safe. We loved how many outdoor activities there are within an hr drive from the location. We visited Oxtongue Ragged falls and the Lake of Bays brewery. The town of Bracebridge is only about 22 minutes from the property as well so if you forget any items it is very convenient to head into town to pick those up. We were so happy with our stay and hope to visit again in the future.
It was clean and well organized. Having access to a canoe, was great! Lots of scenic trails around, as well.
Joanne was very helpful and kind. She is also smart and funny. :)
Barring unforseen circumstances, I will be sure to go back!
Rik - it was fabulous meeting you on the river. You are welcome back anytime :)
Great host and a great spot!

Thanks Anna! It was great to have someone there who loves it as much as I do. Also it was great that you watered my plants and planters (and did various other chores LOL!). You are welcome anytime!
