DARRYL is a Star Host

Star Hosts are highly rated, responsive, and committed to providing incredible experiences.

We moved here 5 yrs ago and love it! Been working on upgrading and fixing just about everything. We live off-grid, but have solar power and a generator. We have a big garden and orchard. 2 of our tent sites are close to the house and outhouse, 150ft or so. I process firewood and do handyman work, while the mrs. works from home on the computer, so there is always someone here if we're needed. If need be you can charge you cell phones from our house. We will try to accomodate guests needs whatever they may be. Learn more about this land: Welcome to Red Pine Forest, located on Manitoulin Island! We have 4 campsites available for tents or 2 for RVs. We have 100 acres of mixed conifers, including red and white pine. The property boasts a vast variety of flora and fauna, including deer, grouse, porcupine, reptiles like salamanders, hummingbirds and songbirds along with the usual woodland critters, so bring your camera! It is also possible to spot black bears, coyotes, lynx and bobcats. There is a large common fire pit on the property. There is a newer cedar outhouse located near 2 of the tenting sites. You are welcome to walk our trails which can be quite rugged at times, with many alvars and unique flora. There are many beautiful lakes nearby to explore, kayak and fish. You can pitch a hammock under massive pines if you like. Misery Bay Provincial Park is 10 minutes away. There are 2 native reserves nearby that offer the world's largest drum and dream catcher. Locals are friendly and our resident woodworker has some beautiful carvings to see. It is fairly quiet and peaceful, as we are not on the highway. If you time it right you may find mushrooms, or wild strawberries and raspberries. There is a local diner 5 mins away. There is a local market on Saturdays to explore. We are 420 friendly. Please have a look at our extras below! If interested, add them on to your reservation at the time of booking. We look forward to hosting you!

Red Pine Forest with Extras!

Secluded off-grid camping

Friendly hosts in a beautiful wooded area of Manitoulin Island. Darryl and Vicky invited us to a local arts festival and we enjoyed our nightly fireside chats with them. We had lots of privacy. They were accomodating for our larger sized setup. We are also enjoying their homemade maple syrup and jam!!

Great place

Perfect start to our holiday! Darryl and Vicky were lovely hosts and the spot to park our RV was great. Hubby and son enjoyed the fishing trip and we all loved the time around the campfire.

I loved our campsite at Darryl’s place! Very private campsite and nice trails around the property. We got to spend some time with Darryl and Vicky around the fire, such kind and fun people! Darryl told us lots about the local wildlife. Great place to stop on the first leg of a long trip and a memorable experience.

Dear den (I think that’s the one…) is a great secluded spot, yet open and huge and natural remote from the outhouse (toilet) and Daryl and Vicky’s house, still easily accessible, either by a path from the house or by a forest road without bothering the host. 10 mins by car, easily done cycling also, from Misery Bay and its beautiful trails; about half an hour from Sheshegwaning beautiful trail along the Georgian bay; about 30 min drive from Gore Bay. Great showers may be found at marinas or try the lakes…

Fox Den

Great spot on the far side of Manitoulin Island! Darryl is a great host with a lot going on his property if you're interested in off-grid lifestyle! We had a great time enjoying their fire with the hosts and enjoyed our tent spot for the night.

Darryl’s place was excellent! Gorgeous spot, very private, and super easy to get to. You get the feeling of privately camping in the woods while being right near an outhouse and the highway. And Darryl was very helpful and friendly. Couldn’t recommend enough!
