Moon River Cottages

Bill was amazing help, as it was our first time on a canoe, he gave us great advice, also the canoe was in a great shape, there is a fridge in the office that'll be the best thing you could ask for after a couple of hours on the river! Saw a bear on the Trek, watch out!

I am really surprized to see how good reviews of other people are, cause our experience was totally different. I sent an email before we came and was answered that there were lots of campsites out there and we could come. Apparently, the owner was not in a good mood from the very start at 8am in the Saturday morning – not friendly or welcoming at all, nor helpful. He barely said hi, did not introduce himself. I told him that it was the first time that we came to his place for camping and need to learn the rops. Despite that he rather grudgingly and reluctantly answered our questions, said nothing about the price for launching a boat and car parking except that we’d pay tomorrow, also about camping site location - just waived a hand to some direction on the left of the place. He put our boat out to the water, but did not offer any advice how we could load the boat with our staff from the car, having said that he needed to launch a big boat right away and left. When my husband tried to drive our car closer to the marine for loading from the dock he started to shout: “Get out from the water and from here!” Then he pulled our boat out from the water and said that he had enough people there at his place, and did not want us to stay unless we pay $100. Seems like he differentiates people by the amount of money they pay for his service. Probably, the owner of the big boat and those who stay in cottages are more profitable customers. I do not mind to pay any reasonable cost and tips for service, but won’t tolerate being shouted at and kicked off (afterwards, with an option to stay and get ripped off). We were just stunned at such attitude, never been treated like this in my life. We are devoted and experienced campers, travelled lots of places in Ontario and everything was amazing up to this point. Worst experience one can imagine.

The camping was great but unfortunately the owner/representative of this place was really terrible to deal with. Without going into too much detail, he was extremely negative and miserable. He even went as far as aggressive and hostile - avoid unless your looking for a confrontation

We've always enjoyed launching out boat from this location over the years. The road getting in can sometimes be rough gravel but it's been recently graded making it better. The location makes it easy to go up to Moon River Falls or our west and out into the bay.

We drove in for a day trip. We met Bill who runs the place, he is extremely friendly and helpful. He rents boats and parking. We kayaked across to the falls about 30-40 mins depending on your rush. Spent a few hours in the falls. Beautiful spot definitely recommend it.

Friendly service with fair prices for firewood, ice and other provisions. Boat launch service and parking with great access to a wonderful area. If you visit this area, be bear aware, respect the environment and clean up after yourselves so the next people can enjoy.

Just Absolutely love being up there! Especially Camping on Cathy's Rock! Love the Site! Been over 10 years now going! Love Bill an Ann and the family are very friendly and they make you feel welcome! Just can't wait to get there in 2 weeks! ???

My family and I love this hidden gem. The owner Bill is a great guy, very friendly and accommodating. The cottages are nice,a bit old and rustic but they are clean, comfortable and well appointed. Fishing was amazing and swimming near the water falls was an experience. Thank you Bill for another great year and I look forward to making more awesome memories next year.
