Site 4 -Hidden Gem
Hidden Gem Campsite
Family friendly, small, but very private campground. Bugs were minimal when we went in the beginning of August. Chickens and pigs are incredibly friendly and will eat ANYTHING. We got lucky while we were there, the neighbours were moving their cows to another grazing field and they came in into the field behind our campsite! Very cool experience. The campground is also central to a couple hiking places, like Eagles Nest in Bancroft and Egan Chutes Provincial Park. The campground also had a small convenience-like store where you could borrow or rent items like games, or camping gear, and you could buy snacks like smores kits!

Farm fun! Highly recommend!
If you want a quiet, private, fun, 420 friendly camping experience, we highly recommend Burke’s Barnyard! Melissa and Gary are both super kind and welcoming hosts who have gone the extra mile to make sure you have an enjoyable stay on their awesome property. We rented their air bed last minute as we forgot the cap to ours at home, and they inflated it for us and everything. Their Hot Box tiny “store” is great if you’re a forgetful camper - it’s stocked with everything you might need (we bought some freezies which saved us on a hot July day). We stayed on the Hidden Gem site - definitely recommend if you’re wanting privacy as the rest of the sites are similar to a provincial park in distance/visibility to each other. But sites 4 & 5 (Double Duty) are quite private and secluded! And all the sites are a generous size. There is a wide variety of adorable and friendly farm animals to see, and chickens galore (watch your food hahaha)! The pig ate an apple right out of my hand! And there was also a herd of cows on the other side of the fence that we got to see up close. A beautiful farm experience :) Just be prepared to be woken up early - farm animals don’t care that you want to sleep in, and you’re in their house! As well, the rustic outdoor cold shower was perfectly refreshing. There are also some short trails to explore the property. All in all, a wonderful weekend spent at Burke’s Barnyard and we will definitely return!
