The space
Your farm stay site is located at the top of the property near the wetlands for optimal privacy and birdwatching, we've even provided binoculars!

Your rental includes the use of two bell tents. Guests will have access to an outdoor kitchen that includes a cooler, BBQ, camp stove and additional grill. Basic pots and pans are available, as well as dishes, cutlery, mugs and knives for meal prep. If you need something during your stay that isn't there, just text us! If you choose to prepare food onsite, we ask that you be conscious of waste. We will collect garbage each evening and request any additional food be stored in the secure storage provided or in your vehicle- not the tent.

Firewood is provided. If there is a burn ban in effect in our area, fires will not be permitted. Additional blankets are provided for your campfire comfort.

Drinking water is available on site. Fresh water for washing will be provided daily. As there is no power at the site, but lanterns, solar lighting, rechargeable fans and flashlights are provided for your convenience as well as a charging station for devices.

Guest access
Paths are moderately leveled through and around the sunflower and wildflower fields to allow visitors to safely navigate the property at their leisure. For your safety, please stay on the cleared paths.

Guests are welcome to join us to feed and meet our animals in the morning and evening. Alpaca are notoriously skittish animals., so for their comfort we request that guests remain at their site after 9pm.

Other things to note
The farm is 5 minutes from the St. Lawrence River (1000 Islands Region), dive sites, walking paths, parks, and swimming. ATV and snowmobile trails are all around us. We are within 10 minutes of restaurants, bars, a distillery, a brewery, splash pad, public pools, golf and live theatre and historic sites. We are within 30 minutes to wineries, more live theatre and breweries, large public beaches, exceptional kayaking, and an abundance of nature trails for hiking and cycling (Limerick Forest) more golfing and even more historical sites! There really is no shortage of things to do in this area. A helpful guide will be provided, but we are also happy to tell you about some of our favourite spots.
