Overview
Enjoy the beauty of summer at IAWAH with your family or friends. Campground bookings are available for Cabins, Tabins, or Canvas Tents on platforms during select weeks of the summer. It is just like booking a deluxe campsite in a provincial campground. Bring your own food and cooking equipment. Central bathrooms and shower facilities are assigned. Each cabin is equipped with your own fire ring, picnic table, and clothesline.
We are excited to offer Day Camp during week 4 (July 31- August 4, 2023). Register your kids for a day or the whole week (additional fees apply). Registration for Day Camp is open now.

Tabins – Cabin with screen sides
The Tabins are nestled into the pine forest near Chapel Point. They are perfect for a small group of families, or they can be booked individually. A Tabin (tent-cabin) is a solid wood building, with screened sides that give you that special feeling of being in the great outdoors, with the added security of a roof. Canvas blinds can be rolled down to provide more weather protection, shade, or privacy. Each Tabin has six single beds built-in, with electricity, a picnic table, and a fire-pit & grill. Central washrooms, with showers, are located a short walk away in the gymnasium.
Tabins – Group Site Fees
$500/night + HST for all 5 Tabins. The maximum group size for the Tabin Village is 30 people.
Tabins – Individual Site
$80/night + HST for up to 4 guests
$25/night + HST for each additional guest to a maximum of 6 people on the site.

Canvas Tents – Group Site
Solid floor | front porch | Tent under framed cover.
The Canvas tent village is comprised of 5 large (6 cots) tents and 2 small (4 cots) tents. Each tent is protected from the elements by a wooden framed shelter built on a solid platform. This village of tents is nestled under the trees and includes its own group fire pit area, complete with seating. With a field next to the village, complete with a tetherball court, this is the perfect spot for large group camping.
$500/night + HST for all 6 tents
Maximum group size of 40 people.
NOTES
Guests bring their own food and cooking equipment and use the firepit & grill assigned to their site. IAWAH provides mattresses in the Cabins & Tabins, and single camping cots for the Tents. Guests are responsible for bringing their own bedding and linens. We recommend a sleeping bag and pillow, but sheets and a blanket work quite well too. Come packed for the seasonal weather and overnight camping temperatures (Cabins, Tabins, and Tents are not equipped with heating). The electricity is good for running a fan or charging a phone, it can not run small appliances (toasters, crock pots, hotplates, or hair dryers).
