Beaver Ranch

7 sites · RVs, Tents137 acres · Owen Sound, ON

Spend a weekend, day or even a night away enjoying 137 acres of serendipity along the shores of the Saugeen River, nestled in the heart of West Grey. A short 10 minute drive to nearby amenities (groceries, box stores, gas and liqour) and a quick 1 hour drive to nearby beaches and waterfalls including McGowan Falls, Sauble Beach and Sauble Falls, Hoggs Falls, Inglis Falls. Take a leisurely float down river by tube, canoe or kayak, step in for a swim or try your hand at casting a rod and reel, by day and camp along the shores by night. Not the water type? Strap on your boots and take a nature filled walk across the property, or nearby at one of the many Saugeen River Conservation Areas. Are you a night hawk? Fill your evenings with campfires and local entertainment, such as the nearby Drive-In Theater in Hanover or local breweries (Neustadt or Hanover). (10 minute drive). Surrounded by farm land and nature’s best features, book now and find yourself lost in the middle of the heart land.
