About this property

Stargrass Tent | Campground with Quarry Lake

Stargrass is set on a stunning 230-acre property, just 1.5 hours from Toronto, with access to a crystal-clear, spring-fed lake formed from a former limestone quarry. This unique landscape is home to five lakeside cabins and six campsites.

Set apart on the quarry near the lake, this tent offers a wide, private lot with fewer trees but unbeatable water proximity — a contrast to our more forested sites. All tents share communal lake access with paddle board & canoe rentals, so all guests can take advantage of this truly epic location.

Please note: This property features rugged terrain and steep cliff faces. Families with young children should take extra care. See the ‘Be Aware’ section for details.
