Our home is located on the edge of elmira. We live on 14 acres. We built a 1 acre campground on our property which also has a few trails for you to wander. The property is great for walking your dog leash free. Close to amenities and town but also feels secluded. Your campground includes - fire pit - walking trail - large cut grass field - great for dogs and walking dogs - abuts farm land with lots of privacy - no hydro available at main campground but for an extra charge I can provide a generator - porta potty on site which is very clean. - ability to park on grass or gravel - depending on time of year pond, it does dry up but dogs love swimming in it. - great sunrises and sunsets - 2 minutes to groceries and liquor stores, restaurants, Tim Hortons, Dog Park etc. - Lots of wood supply for fires (Extra Charge) The property can accommodate multiple camping reservations but for now we are only accepting 1 at a time on a a 5 acre portion of our 14 acres. The pond does dry up as the summer goes on as of right now until we renovate it, And we do not allow swimming in it (Animals are ok).This 5 acre parcel of our 14 acres will be dedicated to you for the duration of your stay. In the heart of mennonite country you will love the charm of the area and the convenience of being close to town. There are 3 separate fields to camp. 2x fire pits with walking trails leading to each section and around the property. This is incredible value and very peaceful. Property is equipped with a portable toilet, running water at the barn to fill your jugs. Next to our property is a honor system small farm store to purchase local, farm produce and eggs. (NO SUNDAY SALE) Privacy - You will be the only campers, however theres a chance we will be utilizing the property from time to time (Not often). Occasionally the St Jacobs tourist train makes passage along the property on market days to bring visitors to shop at local shops. Our property is on the edge of Elmira and offers convenient access to stores, restaurants, coffee shops, etc within 2 minutes. We have amazing sunrises, and sunsets along with awesome star gazing. A great spot for a 1 night lay over stop on your travels. More pictures coming soon.

Reis Kamp is a beautifully landscaped, private oasis perfect for groups or families. The spacious property offers three separate fields for camping, with plenty of firewood and a large community fire pit. Each group can have its own private area, while the shared picnic tables and fire pit make it ideal for gatherings. The host was incredibly kind and made sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We also loved the small produce stand next door, where we stocked up on fresh eggs and veggies. With the town just a short drive away, it’s easy to grab a coffee, beer, or dinner when you want a break from camp life.

Tent

Lots of room to pitch the tent. Picnic table. I didn’t have a fire but the fire pit was really nice. A lifesaver for me was the availability of water. Portable was clean.
