If you want privacy and seclusion this is your place . Our family lives on 80 acres 8 minutes from the town of Campbellford. We are on a dead end road out in the country. Upon arrival simply turn into our driveway and drive right past our house following the dirt path. Turn left just down the hill to the River.
We are located on Bradley Bay on the Trent river with kms of lock free boating between Percy Boom and Glen Ross . We are located across from an island called Anderson island. Pike, pickeral, bass , Muskie ,channel cat ,and pan fish are in these waters.
Our point is very private with plenty of birds and wild life to watch .
We have one of our trails marked clearly threw out the woods for you to enjoy .
We have a complementary canoe, 1 adult kayak, 1 adult SUP and 1 child’s kayaks . Life jackets and boat safety kits are also available . On the point we have a small fire pit and 2 docks.
1 of the docks face the river and one is up our little lagoon . A wonderful place for adults and children alike to fish , swim , relax and catch frogs and fire flies.
We do have a few chairs and a child’s little turtle pool to swim and play in.
The point is a long narrow grassy area. There are about 3 spots you could park a trailer . We think currently the max length would be a 24 foot trailer we could accommodate until we are able to open up the area a bit more.
A small fishing boot about 14 foot and under could be launched at our water entry otherwise the closest public launch is about 5 minutes down the road .
If we plan it ahead we have water from our well from a hose available. We are happy to let you fill your trailer up with water from our house hose on the way down to the point or any jugs you may have.
Otherwise Ferris Provincial Park is about 7 minutes away. There is a water filling station and dumping station there for a small fee from the park.
Things to do In area is the well known suspension bridge located in Campbellford. Doohers bakery and the Empire Cheese Factory and Chocolate Factory all within 10 minutes from our house . We also have local Breweries in the area, one being about 8 minutes away called the Fogorig Brewing.
Campbellford is full of little shops and stores.
It’s a beautiful walk back towards our house and down the laneway to the road as well. Great quiet country road for children and adults alike to go for a bike ride or walk along the road beside farmers fields where usually deer and sandhill cranes are seen.
We usually touch base with our campers a week or so before there arrival date to give exact directions to our house via Hipcamp message.
Upon arrival if arranged ahead of time we can be here to meet and greet you and ensure you are settled in. Otherwise there isn't a guarantee we will be at the property upon arrival but we can ensure that we will always have someone by phone for you to reach if need be at all times.We ask only a few simple rules here. Please do not move the fire Ring as it’s where it is to safely have a fire. Be considerate to our neighbours. Please respect the site and our items we have provided to share with you.
We are located 8 minutes from Campbellford on 88 acres of woodland. Our camping site is up our laneway and past our house down a country lane to the river with easy access in and out all times while here. Our house to the site is about a 5 minute walk threw the woods down the dirt path giving our guests complete seclusion.
Our numbers for guests on our site is low for respect to any neighbouring cottages. Please reach out if your family exceeds 6.

We are located on the Trent River on Bradley Bay with lock free boating between Percy Boom and Glen Ross . A public boat launch is 5 minutes down the road .
We have 1 long walking trail threw our woods which is well marked for you to explore. It’s great for dogs to run off leash and get exercise as you will not run into anyone on the path as it’s our private property.
We are happy to let you fill your trailers water tank from our house or water jugs as needed as we have an outside tap with a hose attached.
Otherwise Ferris Provincial Park is about 7 minutes away with a fill up station and dumping station for a fee of roughly 15$.
Campbellford is 8 minutes away and is well known for our little shops , Chocolate Factory ,Doohers bakery , Empire Cheese factory and swing bridge . Fishing is excellent here and well know for Muskie, pickeral, pike bass and pan fish. We do have a black cat named Carlos who may make her rounds. She is friendly and may pop by to say hi as when we are not hosting and are at the river and Carlos is there with us.
We do ask no diving off the end of the dock as it isn’t deep enough to make it safe to do so but plenty deep enough for swimming .
We do ask you pack out your garbage and recycling/ burn burnables the fire pit if you wish.
We hope you love it here as much as our family does.
