Pine the Sky

This beautiful spot was re-forested with pine a number of years ago, and was sectioned off from the surrounding farmland, which is now maintained by the mennonite community.

 It is 8 1/2 acres of wetland and forest, with a mown perimeter, and cool places to tuck into the forest for the night.

The current owner was a special educator, and now is slowly turning the land into her homestead.

There is a beautiful, spa quality outdoor shower next to a tidy and 'fancier than most' outhouse, a strawberry patch as well as wild alpine strawberries all over the property, a big dog and a small indoor cat keep her company.

Here is what the land offers:

-Bunkie in the Forest: A sweet 8x8 ft. space with new bunk and mattresses as of April 2023

-Strawberry Fields bunkie:  an 10x12 space with a loft with a queen memory foam mattress and a main floor with a full futon and a small table

-Campsites: Meadow, Forest and River spots.  Close to each other, but you'd never know it!  All three are chill and serene places. The property backs onto a ten-foot swimming hole in an otherwise shallow part of the Saugeen River.

-RV Spot: With electric hook up ideal for RVs 30 feet and under

-a connection to the organization, 'Black Folks Camp Too'!  Welcoming to all!!!!!

So much to see and do in the area!

this bunkie is outfitted perfectly for indoor and outdoor recreating

every detail is thought of by hostess with the hostess, Joan!

I love when host's allow pets to join the party, River had a blast

with mosquito season hopefully on the outs, the private fire pit was a delightful spot to read

the bunkie blends right into the woods and stays cool in the heat

Forest Cabin

Forest trails, farm animals, starlit skies, and coyotes howling in the distance — welcome to your own quiet corner of the wild. Tucked into the forest at Everdale's regenerative farm, this off-grid straw bale cabin is a one-of-a-kind retreat for nature lovers, climate-conscious travellers, and anyone craving stillness and space.

Drive right up to your private hideaway beneath the trees. Inside: a queen bed, cozy living area, and warm, earthen walls. Step out to a covered, open-air kitchenette — the perfect place to sip coffee, cook dinner, or watch the forest move around you.

The entire cabin is yours, along with access to the surrounding forest and meadows of Everdale Farm. 

Outside your door: a private fire pit, picnic table, and a clean, private outhouse just 20 seconds away. Explore trails, visit the chickens and sheep, or spend your day resting under the trees.

Built in 2002, this is one of Ontario’s first straw bale buildings — handcrafted with care from natural, breathable materials. Its rounded corners and deep window sills feel like something from the desert Southwest — right here in Southern Ontario. Warm in winter, cool in summer, and powered by solar energy for lights and device charging.

Everdale is an award-winning organic farm and education centre, committed to climate-positive, regenerative practices. Your stay supports ecological farming, food education, and land stewardship. 

Campfire wood can be purchased for $10/bag.  Wood for indoor heat is included.

Comfy seating to gather around the wood stove 

... and the forest right outside your door!

Pootcorners Alpacas

Purchased in 1989, this small piece of heaven was developed by Peter & Suelaine Poot into a home for their family and beginning in 2003, a
welcoming alpaca farm.
 The bush area has been used for camping by many local and visiting scouting groups over the years.
 In 2021, we joined Hip Camp and now allow others to enjoy the beauty, peace, and challenges of camping in our bush.

The alpacas are a peaceful herd to watch as they graze their way through the day. Crias (baby alpacas), love to pronk and play in the pastures near their mothers. During May you may observe us shearing the alpacas.
 June is the birthing and breeding month.
 They birth quickly, so watch carefully.

Tours of the farm with explanations of the fibre harvest process and opportunities to walk the alpacas are available to be booked through our website.

Pootcorner's is designed with space and options in mind for both RV camping and tent camping.

Back in the woods is where the tent camping is, it's quiet, private, and very open.

Some of the male alpacas greeting us as we passed on by.

Suelaine is a master at her craft and maintaining her farm as well as managing the animals who she knows by name.

This is one of the shared seating areas for socializing and having a fire, just outside the main house and near one of the alpaca pastures.

The site, while private and tucked away in the woods, is also on a well cleared area of land which makes for lots of options of where to pitch a tent.

Pet friendly, this is a really nice location for dogs to get exercised as long as they're friendly with the other animals.

In all directions are different pastures of alpacas.

Nestled in the woods near the tent camping is an outhouse which is really nice, especially if traveling in a larger group.

Another spot that's super kid friendly and there for the using, a sand box.
