We were a group of 6 in 2 camper vans and a truck tent and the site by the gazebo was great. We enjoyed the views and got to wake up to horses grazing in the pasture. There was lots of space, it was flat, and there was a campfire ring right there. Good group camping spot.
Ken was also so friendly and helpful. Such a great host. Charlie (the dog) came to visit as well, so we got to enjoy his company each day too. Would definitely stay here again!

Great place, Shauna and her husband were so nice! Can’t wait to go back in the spring when the creek is going to be full.
Thanks for having us!

I loved camping at Osprey Acres - the property is stunning and Shauna was so helpful and friendly. She gave us loads of tips for the local area and beyond and we loved the walks, the wonderful set up and seeing all the animals. Felt like a little slice of paradise

Beautiful location along a creek near Sun Peaks resort. The porta potty and outdoor shower are super clean and have a cabin style feel. There were also string lights in the trees, a picnic gazebo, and hammocks. Great hosts! Will stay again.

Wow, what a beautiful, tranquil spot this is. The trailer has everything you need for a comfortable stay, inside and out, with several different chill out area options. The views of the lake are just gorgeous, from sunrise to sunset, and the stars at night were incredible.
Being dog friendly was the icing on the cake! Quiet dirt roads were great for walks.
I honestly should have booked for longer. Already looking forward to our next stay.
Brock is a great host. :)

Chris was a very friendly host; we booked last minute but he was able to accommodate us and was very welcoming. The sign for the campsite was a little tricky to find in the dark, but I’m sure during the day this would be easier. We enjoyed the outdoor shower too!

Firkin camp site, surrounded by nature on a river was soul soothing. Very private and peaceful. Outhouse, picnic table and potable water tap on site. Host and site, a camper’s delight. Thank you, we very much enjoyed our stay.

We loved the camping there! The two hosts were super nice people and we ended up chatting quite a while while they showed us around. The campsite is very nice too: the pit toilet has a water bucket to wash hands and soap. Each campsite has a picknick table. There was only one other guest that night, so it was relatively privat. Would absolutely recommend.

We had a wonderful time. My son enjoyed learning about the farm and surrounding areas. The little beach at Pinantan lake was perfect. The general store has literally everything you need - store, gift shop , liquor store , cannabis store and laundramat all in one. The trails are great. Highly recommend and will definitely be back

Very relaxing and peaceful campground we enjoyed it quite a lot and also there were no mosquitoes so that was a bonus. The sheep were fun to see and Gillian’s very cute and friendly. We also enjoyed the coyote chorus each evening!
Gillian gave me a ride up to her place on her ATV to fill my water container too. We would stay there again for sure!

Peaceful and private. Sleeping to the sound of the river flowing and crickets chirping is my idea of the best lullaby. A short jaunt away is a little swimming hole to enjoy on those hot summer days as well. A big thank you to Bryan and Karen for sharing this gem of a spot!!

We loved the camping at Shauna’s land. She and her husband were so welcoming and kind. It was very easy to get to the place, we stayed there on our way to the Rockies. They already had one tent setup and offered us to use it. Since we arrived when it was dark, we were very thankful for this option. I would stay there again and definitely recommend it!

A wonderful retreat for celebration or just recalibration. Time to reflect in a quiet peaceful place. Very romantic too as we were celebrating our anniversary. Thank you to Nancy for the wonderful added experience of the romantic package. It was a lovely time away
