Couples Lakeside Retreat
Perfect private camping getaway
Stephen and Carole have such an amazing private camping retreat, we only wished we had booked a longer time.
The access is easy, Stephen met us at the parking to help haul some of our gear to the camp sites. Both site were beautiful and setup with a picnic table, fire pits and wood. About 200 metres was a trail down to their private beach which was the perfect place to hangout all afternoon. Our niece loved playing in the shallow sandy water while we enjoy the stunning view.
We highly recommend this camping location as we’ve struggled to find great options over the last two years with how busy normal camping areas have been.
We can’t wait to for next season to get back to this awesome getaway.

Camping at Lakeside Retreat was wonderful! Crow lake and the trails on the property were beautiful. We would definitely go there again! If you are looking for peace and quiet this is the perfect place!

Not sure about this one…
So Stephen was super friendly and helpful. However listing led you to believe that you would be on the water with the photos, that’s not the case this site is up a cliff about a 600 m walk to the beach. The fire pit is on a pretty steep slope so that’s not ideal. Also the facilities looked nice but were not clean (my wife refused to use them due to the cleanliness) we understand it’s an outhouse but there was poo on the seat the whole time we were there. There is only one outhouse for 3 campsites and it is quite the walk to get there. Firewood was supposed to be provided (this had been changed to pay for it now) but we got one small pile and we’re forced to find our own for the rest of our stay not a huge deal but it’s a good thing we had an axe. Sleeping was made more difficult by the cargo train blasting its horn every 30 mins all night. With minor changes ie cleaning and making the site layout more friendly I would return but not until that happens.

Great Family Experience
We camped at Lakeside Retreat for 2 nights and only wished we had a little more time to rest and explore. The beach and Crow Lake are exceptional, with crystal clear water perfect for paddling. Keep in mind that if you’re bringing your own kayak or canoe, it’s a bit of a journey from the parking area down to and up from the water. We had amazing weather and paddled out to Snake Island but didn’t make it as far as the jumping rock. That will have to be an adventure for another day! Thanks to Stephen and Colette for being so hospitable and for helping us get our gear to the site. A great time!

Wonderful hosts/location!
The Lakeside Retreat was an absolute dream! Our hosts were so welcoming and accommodating from help with getting our gear to the campsite by atv and supplying our wood. We also rented their kayaks which was a great experience. The site itself was great with pretty good privacy from the other site and just a couple minute walk to the car and down to the beach. I would definitely recommend and stay here again!!! Also!!! Fireflies light uo the forest at sunset! It was magical! This obviously may be a seasonal event :)
