Middle Earth is nestled in a small valley in the highland hills in the middle of Lake St Peter and Mink Lake. We offer a variety of campsites on 150 acres with easy access to Algonquin trails, lakes, rivers, and attractions. These sites are ideal for campers looking to explore natural wilderness and enjoy pristine lakes. Pets are most welcome at all of our sites. Come and enjoy the natural wonders of the Highlands!
Beautiful camping at Brian’s property! We were the only ones there so he gave us the best site! Very kind and interesting. I would definitely go back to this spot:)
The campsite has only a fireplace, which means you need to be full equipped to camp. The campsite was clean, away from other campsites and the parking spot for our vehicle was very closed to it. The property is a couple minutes away from Algonquin Park East Entrance. Brian and his wife were extremely nice and explain us everything, even borrow us some camping chairs I forgot to pack. It was a nice and a recommended experience.
A beautiful, mossy, cozy spot amongst the trees! We enjoyed our night here and would love to come back. Brian was such a lovely host, and Blueberry hill was delightful! It is fairly close to the next site, but we were lucky to be the only ones there that night.
Super chill hosts, very eager to lend wood and supplies that may have been forgotten. Site is beautiful with lovely forests and greenery. 15 minutes away from multiple fresh lakes.
I recently stayed at this Hip Camp site with a large group and had a generally good experience but encountered a few issues that others might want to be aware of when booking.
The site was advertised as private with its own toilet facilities, but from our campsite, we could clearly see the other two campsites and hear our neighbors. The toilet was shared with the larger campsite, and the tarp did not close properly, which compromised privacy. We also had people accidentally walking through our campsite, which was disappointing since we specifically booked a private site to avoid this.
Additionally, while the site is advertised as dog-friendly on leash, there was an off-leash dog that wandered around and nipped at our dog. This led us to walk her home multiple times, which was an inconvenience.
It's also worth noting that the additional camper fees are not clearly represented on the booking page. This was an unexpected surprise and something future campers might want to clarify before finalizing their reservations.
Despite these issues, we had a great time overall. However, I wish I had been aware of these details when booking.
