Accommodations
Regarding Cabin Bookings for spring/summer 2026:
We are currently confirming all our prior groups and program reservations for this coming season as well as building back-up our staffing capacity BEFORE we can take new bookings. We anticipate being able to start taking inquiries for spring/summer cabin reservations in late may or early June.
We are currently working with limited staff as we hire and bring new staff up to speed, all while trying to keep start-up costs as low as possible. We may not be able to answer emails regarding future bookings in a timely manner just yet. Please keep reaching out if your question or needed response is urgent.
RATES and NEW CABIN/SITE Photos will be posted in the coming weeks.
Please contact info@canadianecology.ca to inquire in early June.

When using this shared space, we ask that you adhere to the following rules;
- Try to limit your time to no more than 25 to 30 minutes per visit. This is not to be used to as a social hang out spot.
- Please remove your footwear upon entry.
- Turn off all appliances (ie. BBQ , coffee maker, etc…) after use.
- Please wash, dry and put away all items that you use in this space after each use.
- Turn off lights when leaving the building.
- Please do not remove any items from the dining cabin.
GUIDELINES
Food/Eating in your cabin: There is a small fridge in each cabin and storing food in your vehicle and/or in a cooler will avoid attracting “critters” in the cabins. Crockpots are permitted in your personal cabin (max of 1 per cabin), but all other appliances (toaster ovens, instapots, air fryers, hotplates, etc.) are NOT permitted. Please DO NOT wash dishes in your cabin as food waste will clog the drains. A shared-use kitchen facility is available on site for meal prep/cleaning needs.
A $50-$100 key/cleaning deposit is being charged for all cabin rentals. This deposit will be refunded within 2 weeks of your departure providing you have left your park pass (during park operating season) and keys in your cabin and followed all check out procedures (listed in the information package sent to your email prior to arrival).
Check-in is virtual. You will be sent your cabin number with an information package via email a few days prior to your arrival. It is important that you read over your information package carefully prior to arrival as it contains directions, check in/out procedures, emergency contacts and what to pack. If you do not receive this information within 48 hours of your arrival please reach out to info@canadianecology.ca.
Please reach out via email for larger group bookings: info@canadianecology.ca
We have several designated pet friendly cabins available for rent for an additional fee. Pet owners are required to respect the following rules:
- There is a max of 2 pets per cabin regardless of size.
- Pets must be on a leash when outside of cabin.
- Pets MUST be crated if left unattended in cabins, please do not leave pets unattended for long periods or allow them to make excessive noise.
- Pets are not permitted in any CEC buildings including the shared use dining cabin.
- Pet waste must be properly disposed of in the pet waste bin located at the dining cabin.
- Pet owners will be charged for the full costs of any damage repairs or excessive cleaning required in or around your cabin (cabins are inspected before and after your stay).
ONTARIO PARKS PET POLICY:
Dogs are welcome at Samuel de Champlain Provincial Park, and are permitted on park roads and hiking trails. However, dog owners must be respectful of nature and their fellow park visitors. To accommodate both those with and without pets, we ask that you adhere to the following rules related to dogs. Violations may result in a minimum fine of $95.00;
- Dogs are not permitted in the following areas:
- beaches and swimming areas (unless a designated dog beach)
- comfort stations

- Do not allow dogs to damage or disturb park vegetation and wildlife
- Do not leave dogs unattended or allow them to make excessive noise
Failure to follow these guidelines may result in your group being asked to leave the premises with no refund. Our cabins are not part of Ontario Parks and therefore we may have some rules/regulations that differ as the CEC is non-profit educational facility (ie. Alcohol policy)

- Alcohol is ONLY permitted at your personal cabin. Open alcohol is prohibited anywhere else on site, including the campfire pit.
