This beautiful spot was re-forested with pine a number of years ago, and was sectioned off from the surrounding farmland, which is now maintained by the mennonite community. It is 8 1/2 acres of wetland and forest, with a mown perimeter, and cool places to tuck into the forest for the night. The current owner was a special educator, and now is slowly turning the land into her homestead. There is a beautiful, spa quality outdoor shower next to a tidy and 'fancier than most' outhouse, a strawberry patch as well as wild alpine strawberries all over the property, a big dog and a small indoor cat keep her company. Here is what the land offers: -Bunkie in the Forest: A sweet 8x8 ft. space with new bunk and mattresses as of April 2023 -Strawberry Fields bunkie: an 10x12 space with a loft with a queen memory foam mattress and a main floor with a full futon and a small table -Campsites: Meadow, Forest and River spots. Close to each other, but you'd never know it! All three are chill and serene places. The property backs onto a ten-foot swimming hole in an otherwise shallow part of the Saugeen River. -RV Spot: With electric hook up ideal for RVs 30 feet and under -a connection to the organization, 'Black Folks Camp Too'! Welcoming to all!!!!! So much to see and do in the area!

Pine the Sky bunkie in the forest!
Joan was tremendously friendly, and the property was perfect for a brief getaway from the city. I'd happily go back.

Great little bunkie, and Joan was a great host. The heater kept us warm all night, and we enjoyed having a firepit all to ourselves.

Welcoming host gave me a quick tour of the facility after hours and the next morning. 2 cabins and 1 basement suite on hipcamp. Warm shower. Electricity and heater and WIFI in the cabin. 50 minutes from Orangeville with restaurants, supermarkets, etc. The road where the cabin is located is paved so 2WD frien.

Had a great time on Joan's property! We took the canoe out for a paddle on the river and saw a heron as soon as we arrived. Beautiful property.

Love the bunkie and campfire area provided. Joan was approachable and easy going. The space was private and quiet. The mosquitos were a bit annoying but apparently it was a bad season for them. Better protection next time lol
