Cedar Creek Forest Camping

11 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents97 acres · Tay, ON
Welcome to Cedar Creek Forest Camping! Voted second best campsite in Canada in 2021 and ranked number 2 in Ontario in 2022. I have 97 acres of very private camping. The forest is a bird watcher’s and nature lover’s paradise. I have developed miles of flat groomed trails and a 3-acre pond (plus several bush ponds). The sites are spread around the pond and are close but not right beside it. There is an abundant amount of wildlife to explore: birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, insects and mammals call this home. There is a small swimming hole on the island but otherwise the pond is full of aquatic life. The sites and trails are maintained all year long and the forest is quiet and beautiful. I have planted over 3000 trees with the help of the Severn Sound Environmental Association. The forest is registered as a managed woodlot with the province and habitat preservation/restoration is the priority goal. Please DO NOT bring firewood for your visit. I have large bags of cured firewood that was sustainable harvested from the forest available. Invasive insects and disease can be transferred from imported wood. Guests are welcome to quietly explore the forest trails but are asked to stay on the trail. Many birds and animals nest in the forest. My campsite is family-friendly (and pet-friendly), and 420 friendly too. Guests can easily drive up to and park at all campsites. My camp site is tolerant and respectful of all humans, animals and things. The Yurtle structures were built from Hemlock trees that were cut from this forest and processed into boards, then engineered into unique camping huts. Large windows capture the glory of the surrounding forest and sun sets, while wood stoves warm campers on those cold days/nights. Guests are asked to remove excessive garbage and recycling when possible. Thanks for viewing and visiting, cheers and peace, Dave

Welcome to Gnarnia! Enjoy your very own tiny, private, cozy cabin in the woods. Located on Georgian Bay, just a few minutes from beautiful Awenda Provincial Park. The accommodations here are heated, comfortable and you have your very own 2 piece bathroom... indoors! In warmer months there is an outdoor shower. Up to 2 guests can rest comfortably in a queen size bed with electric fireplace, mini-fridge, microwave, and hot tub available for use. In winter, take a cold plunge in Georgian Bay, we dare you! Kayaks, Sup's, snow-shoes, yak-trax, board games, puzzles, firewood and a day pass to the park are also available. We do have wi-fi but no t.v. We encourage you to unplug and enjoy all that nature has to offer in this serene environment. Our little homestead is on the same property and we are happy to share, so help yourself to fresh eggs in the morning from our hen house and feel free to make a campfire and enjoy the (dark-sky) stargazing in the outdoor lounge area. Fireside or candle-lit dinner can be provided by request and we offer a breakfast cooler option too. We have everything you need to cook over the fire, bbq or camp stove, right outside the cabin. Georgian Bay is known for its many islands. Epic boating and snowmobile excursions can be arranged for you. Bring your mountain bike, fat bike, cross country ski's and hiking kit for a guided tour by request. Awenda Park has groomed trails for xc ski and there are also nearby groomed fat bike trails in winter. We are animal lovers here and welcome dogs that don't sleep on the bed and that are friendly to all, also by request. We look forward to sharing Gnarnia as a "glamping" experience and if you want to make this your very own elopement destination, that is what we do best @gnarniacraftceremonyco !
