Great weekend
Tent · With kids
Had a great time. Richard was lovely and met us when we arrived. 1.25 hrs from Ottawa. Kids loved the peddle boat and catching frogs Lovely beach where we swam and fished - 15 min drive Suggest if visiting in high temp - need sun shade as the sight is full sun

What a campsite! Host was very clear on directions. Getting to the campsite was a hike and a half but once you get down by the water, it's definitely all worth it. Everything was clean and properly maintained especially the bathroom. Such an amazing quiet place. Very private. Full of wildlife. Paddle boat was fun to use. Campfire wood all set and ready to go before we arrived. Host came down to check up on us. He was very charming and insightful. 100% would recommend!

Wow!!

I absolutely loved my time here! I’ve camped in some beautiful places, but they’ve made this spot truly special. Not only is it situated beside a beautiful pond, but they’ve added a dock, fireplace, and a paddle boat for people to use! These additions really add to the experience and made this such a relaxing getaway. It is also a great place to find some solitude - just you and the wildlife! Just a note, it is about 300m walk into the spot, so limit the amount of things to avoid a lot of back and forth. Also, the spot gets a lot of sunlight which is great, but there is no shade when it gets hot. So I suggest bringing a tent or umbrella to stay cool in the heat of the day! There is a lake about 15 minutes away with a beach to swim. Richard is very kind and generous, and even helped me with my things when I arrived. Thank you for sharing your beautiful property with me for the weekend!

Had a great time. Absolutely gorgeous area. It was nice to relax on the dock and listen to the sounds of nature. The barrel stove was nice to cook on. Richard was quick to respond and we had a good conversation for a little bit when he brought me some paper because I forgot to bring fire starter.

Richard was very nice, and offered to help bring our things down. We enjoyed our time tent camping with our dog. Lots of room, well maintained, fire bit was lovely. Able to cook on the fire pit. Beautiful location by the water. Paddle boat was fun. Picnic table was a nice added feature. Outhouse was close by. Great place to relax, and enjoy the views. Not ideal for swimming as we did see leaches in the water. Fished for quite some time with no luck, don’t think there is fish in the water. To get down to the spot, it is quite a big hill FYI.

Communication Needs Work
Tent · Group trip
We ended up cancelling or stay, but never got a response about getting refunded for the firewood. Communication is lacking from the owners.
