This area is one of the last remaining natural areas around Sylvan lake. Our family has spent over 120 years as stewards of the land and are excited to share what we have protected. Enjoy Private Tent Camping in a Pristine Aspen Forest with a fire pit. All within 500 feet of Sylvan Lake. This is the perfect place to disconnect yourself from the city! Your fee includes free access to 20 acres of forest, excellent wildlife viewing and unlimited deadfall to use as firewood, if you don't mind some manual labour. My kids cut and split firewood if you would like some waiting at your site when you arrive. We have seasoned and split bundles for $10 and you can pre-purchase them when you complete your checkout. It's like a lemonade stand for them...just more work. ;) A professionally maintained porta-potty is on-site for your comfort. We are pet-friendly! If you enjoy the water, this is an ideal location for Kayaking, Paddleboarding or just lounging on an air mattress. With its picturesque scenery and shallow shoreline, Sylvan Lake is a great place to spend some time. Sylvan Lake's laid back nature and small-town charm are warm and inviting and have all the amenities that you could ask for. We look forward to hosting you!

Site 2 - Tall Tree.

Hipcamp site 2 tall trees

We enjoyed our stay, it's tucked just far enough off the beaten path to be private. The local wildlife stopped by to check us out, bright and early the first morning we were there. We'll definitely return!

Site 2 - Tall Tree.

An absolute beautiful spot to go camping! Gordon even covered our firewood with a tarp so it wouldn’t get wet! So impressed with the site!

Site 1 - Lone Pine.

Great site

Lovely spot with a firepit and a well-maintained outhouse; we had a great time on the local trails and ten minutes away we had the town beach and dog park. In Sylvan Lake was quite windy but the trees gave us some decent shelter. :)

Site 1 - Lone Pine.

We stayed at site 1 and it really did feel like we were in the middle of nowhere. The fire pits are large and it was nice to be able to walk the property down to the water. Would definitely stay here again!

Site 2 - Tall Tree.

Best. Site. Ever.

What a fantastic experience!! We are avid campers and we are HUGE fans of smaller - not crowded - private camping. If you’re like us, this is the place for you. Amazing clean site, responsive host, clear communication, beautiful place, amazing home made trails. No traffic sounds - no noisy neighbours. 11/10 we will be back!

I loved our stay out in Aspen Grove. Gordon was an amazing host who made sure we were all settled and provided us with info about the area and things to do. 100% recommend!
