Pitch your tent next to one of our fields or in our pine forest. You will have access to 700+ acres of conservation/county forest beginning at your campsite, so you can walk out of your tent and explore! In the winter you can snowshoe or x-country ski to your site (we can provide sleds for gear) In the summer you can drive (AWD suggested) or hike in. Currently, we don't have any permanent sites established, so you are welcome to choose where you'd like to pitch your tent. THE AREA There are 2 small lakes within a short drive of Dusty Hills. McCullough Lake is about 5 minutes by car or an easy bike ride to the public beach. Williams Lake is less than 10 minutes by car and also has public access. We are a 10-minute drive from Kinghurst Forest, which is 370 hectares of old-growth forest designated as an Area of Natural and Scientific Interest (ANSI). Centrally located just south of the Bruce Peninsula, you will be perfectly situated for day trips to Georgian Bay or Lake Huron. The sandy beaches of Port Elgin, Southampton or Sauble Beach are a 40-minute drive. Access points to the Saugeen River for fishing/paddling are also close. For winter sports enthusiasts, we are 20 minutes from both Glenelg Nordic and the Massie Hills Ski Trails if you like to x-country ski. Blue Mountain is a 45-minute drive if you prefer downhill. LOGISTICS We are a short bike ride away from the town of Williamsford, which contains a sprawling bookstore/café in an old mill, the famous Williamsford Pie Company, and a well-stocked convenience store (LCBO Licensed). Any other shopping needs can most likely be satisfied in Owen Sound, 20 minutes north of us. Wi-fi is available at the house by request. We can provide drinking water, and have folding tables and chairs for your site if you would like them. We look forward to hosting you!

Tent camping at Julie's was just as described. We had privacy, pitched our tent where it suited us, and the grounds were a charming mix of fields and forest. She offered firewood, water if needed, and we had the use of two wagons to transport our items to and from our site. Together with her family's friendliness, it was a pleasant stay all around!
