You want to stay here, trust me.
This has become my new happy place. Sitting here writing this during our second stay at the Sumac campsite 2 weeks after our first stay. It has everything you could want and more. Victor and Paul are so incredibly kind and welcoming! Our dogs are so happy being free to run around their MASSIVE property! Not only do you have access to an indoor working bathroom and shower, we also haven’t stayed anywhere yet that had a completely private campsite and almost 580 acres of untouched forest and trails to explore. You never need to leave the property, really. They recommended the cascade trail, and so do we! Such an incredible view and sooo worth the hike!
This is also a mushroom lovers paradise! I can’t count how many different species I found even just getting out of the car! Our second stay was very last minute. We booked another hipcamp in New Liskeard and when we arrive we realized that it was not at all what was described or sold to us. It was a 9 hour drive and 7:30pm before we arrived and disappointed would be an understatement for how we felt about what we were given. We found a motel 3 hours away for the night and contacted Victor the next morning. Their campsite was available and he let us set up that day! They absolutely saved our weekend and we couldn’t be more grateful!!! We will be back again and again.
I wish I could post all the gorgeous photos I took but I’ll settle with these.
Thank you again Victor and Paul!!!

Had an excellent time here. The trails were beautiful and well marked. The camp site was clean and well laid out with many thoughtful little touches. Victor and Paul were very friendly and helpful. I'd return for sure.

The weather didn't cooperate, but this site is great if you're looking for a combination of comfort and privacy/wilderness. Comforts included: clean washroom more private than what you'd have at a comfort station at a provincial park, wood in a covered box on site that is great even if you run into rain (moist with humidity but not too wet to build a fire), filled water, a propane grill to make cooking easy, and a table with stools under a mesh tent to protect you from the (many) mosquitoes. The lake is a short walk away at the lodge, and has lovely grounds with some sitting areas (benches, dock, rocks) that were filled with thyme which provides a delightful scent in addition to the view. We only did one hike because of the rain - the trail was very well marked and led past nice marshes to another small, private lake.

Dream-like camping spot
Highly recommend this site to anyone who's an outdoorsy person. We had an awesome time in complete solitude as they only had 1 site to offer which was a huge must for us looking for a spot to avoid any type of stress and to decompress. There are a ton of stunning hiking trails, and we were able to check them all out, very well maintained and easy for even the most unoriented person to follow! The hosts were both very friendly and welcoming upon our arrival and made sure we knew if we needed anything they were around to help us out in any way they could which was awesome! Very healthy forest with lots of birds and wildlife to see and endless amount of activities to do, this was a true vacation we desperately needed from life. As a personal note, I'd recommend the woodland and cascade trails, if your time is limited. Next time we come around we would like to have a picnic along the rocks of the cascade trail. It was magical! Another personal note; the very careful conservation approach they take to ensure the waterfront is reserved (trails not made too close to the water's edge), speaks volumes to their vision to maintain ecological conservation which is a massive admiration from myself as it's a very important vision for myself personally. I'd rate this stop a full 10/5 stars and a must for anyone looking for the peace and tranquility of nature away from other people/pets alike. My personal favorite vacation I've taken so far, I hope to be back next year, well worth the travel

Exceptional site
Our stay of three nights was just perfect! Directions to camp are clear, warm greetings from Paul & Victor, they are such good people! The site is well equipped and intimate..The lake is so pure! Trails are well indicated and we feel safe even though we are so deep! This place has so much to offer, a real gem!
