WHERE TO STAY

If looking to stay the night we recommend looking in Owen Sound, as its about a half an hour drive to the farm. Here are some hotels we suggest for you to take a look at in and around the area.

THINGS TO DO

Aside from visiting the tent sale, there are so many other

  • Summerfolk Music Festival: A local folk music and craft festival which happens annually. Attracting performers from all across North America, its the perfect event to go to with the whole family.

  • Antiquing: There are many amazing antique stores in the grey and bruce area to check out. Some of the best antiquing can be found in Clarksburg. Learn more here …

  • Craft Brewing and Wineries: Looking for a place to end the day? We have many amazing breweries and wineries to check out in the area. Thornbury Craft Cidery is a great place to pick up artisan cider, followed by a stroll through Thornbury. Located just forty minutes from Koigu is Sidelaunch brewery, with many amazing types of beers, and of course visit Collingwood for many amazing dinner options after. Finally, one of my favourite spots in the area is Coffin Ridge Winery, that features amazing wine and views of the area. If planned out right you can take a stop at all three of these spots, driving along the southern edge of Georgian Bay.

  • Visit the Beach: Take a quick dip and visit one of the many amazing beaches along Lake Huron, all under an hour drive from the farm. Visit Sauble Beach, Port Elgin and Southampton.
