You will find us just off Exit 20, Highway 104. The property boasts 3 ponds and a park like setting where the tents are located. There is a river near by if you like to Kayak or fish, we are within 20 minutes to the beach. Hiking trails are close by as well as museums, parks and Go-Karts on property. This is off grid, there is a porta potty and an outdoor shower. Whistleberry Market is 2 minutes away, Green Thumb 5 min walk away.

Tent camping was nice and clean, the airbed, pillows and sheets were comfortable. The place needs a little workaround. Chris was very helpful with our needs.

Poorly maintained
Sadly we felt our experience was subpar. The pictures were not as shown and the place felt a bit abandoned. The outhouse had not been emptied in a long time (maggots in the out house, mould on the seat and flowers, obvious stains), the water tank we had in the dome spouted out earwigs when we used it, and the ‘rec room’ was caved in with water damage not dealt with and covered in spider webs. I’d like to ask for a refund, but the cancellation policy won’t allow me. I can see it used to be a nice place, but we felt too uncomfortable to go to the washroom! The fire pit is a nice touch but the it was a mess by the fire pit. We cleaned up. They were friendly over text and good at communication but the state of the amenities was very poor for the money you pay to stay there.

Awesome campsite
We absolutely loved our experience on the floating tents, very relaxing and quiet place to stay. Will be back!

Booked a stay to break up the long drive to Cape Breton. The tent with airbed & bedding was very convenient and reasonably priced. We didn’t stay long but enjoyed a little walk around the campground. Friendly staff. It is close to road & highway but the traffic sounds from the highway was just white noise during the night & not bothersome.

The Twisted Tent is a fantastic place to camp. The community fire pit is a fantastic way to meet lovely new people. This is my second time there and can promise there will be more in the future. Chris always goes above and beyond to help all the campers. It's a very clean and well kept little spot. Amazing
