The Oak Den is a seven acre private backyard escape located just 20 minutes from London Ontario. A short walk to the campsites away from the main road allows for multiple tents and a more secluded experience.  A tranquil forest surrounds the area with lots of wildlife to watch including birds, rabbits, deer, raccoons, groundhogs, toads and much more. Fireflies in the early summer months are a must-see along with the sounds of turkeys in the spring and coyotes occasionally howling in the distance. A large main campfire area and easy marked walking trails to the Thames River make this a perfect little escape from the city life.

The Cocoon Cabin
The Most Lovliest Campsite & Cabin
Sit back and relax with nature in the lovely Cocoon Cabin! Reconnect with nature and enjoy living with the land. From all the major pluses--comfy and clean beds, kitchen, firepit, and washroom--to all the little ones--books, tea, wind chimes, and small surprises, Abby has thought of it all! A five-star campsite for sure! We had such a wonderful time decompressing in a perfect haven! Thank you Abby.

The Oak Den Tent Camping
Tent camping with my dog.
I loved tent camping on Abby’s land. The best of the forest and water. My dog and I played in the river, walked the trails on the property and then got a spectacular display of fireflies all night. Abby was responsive and on top of things and a fabulous host. I would book with her again.

The Cocoon Cabin
A Great Weekend!!!
We had a great time at the cabin over the weekend. The cabin was clean and cozy...and supplies everything you need. Definitely feel like youre far away from the city. Canoeing on the Thames was a blast...fish, turtles, and birds to view...and secluded...never saw another person. At night the bush lights up with fireflies...what an incredible show they put on...a must see. Abby was a great host and ensured we had everything we need or want...thank you again...see you again in the near future. HAPPY TRAILS.

The Oak Den Tent Camping
Beautiful Campsite
Our stay on Abby's land was absolutely perfect! The instructions were very clear, we got help moving our stuff multiple times, and the trails around the camp were a real treat. The fireflies at twilight captured our hearts! I can hardly belive we found such a great place.
