All to yourself
100% of recent Hipcampers say this Hipcamp felt private.
We have approximately 10 acres of forested land, with a 2-4 person off the grid bunkie (built in 2021) on a pond. Unfortunately, the pond is not suitable for swimming or fishing. There is an outdoor shower and outhouse available (please see the photos) We also have parking and shore power (30 amp) suitable for most RVs. We are 10 minutes from Lake Huron and the most beautiful sunsets in the world.Our bunkie is situated on our back pond facing west. The view is spectacular. The sunsets are stunning. The pond in the back is not suitable for swimming or fishing. The bunkie has a pullout sofa along with a loft for sleeping. There is a propane two burner stove for cooking. The bunkie is off-the-grid, but does have a power bank for charging devices and powering the outdoor shower pump.

The bunkie is in such a beautiful, quiet spot! Such a cute and cozy place. The wood stove is certainly a lovely touch for an autumn weekend. We loved watching the birds on the water from the porch and going for a little paddle too.

The Bunkie is so sweet, clean and spacious with all the amenities a camper needs and more. Although there is no running water we were given well water to wash our dishes and jugs of drinking water. Provided bbq and a butane stove top for cooking. There is a fire pit with plenty of wood for campfires. There is also lighting along the path to the bunkie, in case you come in late or need to access the fridge after dark. Inside there’s a propane heater and a battery powered fan. A rechargeable battery that will run the indoor light string and/or charge your devices. I can’t say enough about Colin and Sandra, they were exceptional hosts, that provided an amazing Hipcamp experience.

Highly recommend Pond Bunkie
Where to begin…the bunkie is so sweet, clean and spacious with all the amenities a camper needs and more. There is an outdoor shower, with a view of the pond. The shower works beautifully with plenty of hot water. There is an outhouse that does not smell Seriously! They use wood chips or sawdust and change out the waste bin every day or every other day. Colin and Sandra gave us access to a fridge in their garage that made food storage so much easier. Although there is no running water we were given well water to wash our dishes and jugs of drinking water. There is also a bbq and a butane stove top for cooking. There is a fire pit with plenty of wood for campfires. There is also lighting along the path to the bunkie, in case you come in late or need to access the fridge after dark. We were two adults that shared the pull out couch, there’s also a loft where one or two small adults could sleep. Colin and Sandra supplied the bedding and extra blankets. Inside there’s a propane heater and a battery powered fan. A rechargeable battery that will run the indoor light string and/or charge your devices. There’s a dish rack, drying rack, dish cloths, a set of 4 plates, cups, spoons and forks, a pot, matches a lighter, battery operated lights and probably more. Except for the heater these were the things we used on our 5 night stay. I can’t say enough about Colin and Sandra, they were exceptional hosts, that provided an amazing 1st time Hipcamp experience. 💯 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Immersed in the beauty of nature
We’ve been travelling around the world for the past 8 months & Colin’s Bunkie makes our top 5 favourite accommodations! It was incredibly surreal being so close to the water, we even saw frogs, the baby painted turtles that they had just released into the wild, all sorts of birds & heard coyotes at night! I can’t get over how special the location is. The sunset over the water was incredible each day & the full moon & starry nights and were unbelievable. The bunkie itself was so cosy & comfortable. It had everything we could need (except a sharp knife to cut fruit). The composting toilet didn’t smell at all & the hot outdoor shower was such a special experience. We slept on the sofa bed be a use I’m a little short & found it difficult to use the ladder for the loft, but Colin said the permanent ladder is on its way 🙌🏽 The bunkie is at the end of a long path and feels really secluded from the main property. The Alexander family are so kind & welcoming we really felt at home. We only regret not booking longer there!
