Heavens Acres has been a stop over since the 1850's for people travelling by horse from Toronto to Owen Sound. We have 100 acres surrounded by another 200 acres of conservation land. There is camping in the pine forest as well at the very back of the property where you will find a hardwood bush with trails. Please note that the hipcamp map shows a large body of water on the property, as does google driving maps. It is a marsh, not a lake. Google Earth shows it better. There is however, a creek and pond, but don't bring your boat. :) This is a "LEAVE NO TRACE" campsite, so please take all garbage when you leave.

Remote plane crash with cabin

Great trip!

We had an amazing time such a unique campsite. Rick was an awesome host. Gave us the history of the plane at the site. Make sure we had everything we needed. What a beautiful chunk of property to spend some time on.!!

Remote plane crash with cabin

Fall camping

It was pretty cool staying on Rick's land. Having the crashed plane on the site made it a truly unique experience, and learning its history made it even more intriguing. There are many interconnecting trails to hike, and Rick took time out of his day to take us on a trail run in one of his atv's. That was super cool and exhilarating! What a great fall camping experience!

Remote plane crash with cabin

Great site!

Camping at Rick's camp site was great! It was a wonderful experience for a "true" camping experience. The cabin, plane and outhouse were all in great condition, and the site has a nice little spot for the fire pit. We dealt with very few bugs and insects on our stay, and it was wonderful connecting with nature. The cell phone reception is good, but I found it most enjoyable to disconnect from my phone during our stay. The owner Rick is friendly and chill, and it was fun taking a tour of the trails in his side-by-side. Firewood is available for purchase and Rick delivers it directly to the campsite by truck. It was fun gathering kindling from the nearby woods, building a campfire, and making s'mores. During the day, you can walk around and see local wildlife like squirrels, frogs, and deer. On clear nights, you can walk just a couple minutes down the road to get a great view of the starry sky. Especially for my first time camping, the three of us had an amazing time! Overall I would highly recommend trying out this campsite, and we would happily return.
