We had our wedding there this year. Communication up to the wedding was unnecessarily stressful and the only way I could get any answers was by paying more money.
I paid for services I never recieved and never got my damage deposit back or any communication as to why I didn’t get my damage deposit back. We even cleaned all the bunk houses for them before we left because we really needed that deposit back.
The actual wedding day went ok. The officiant was fine and the bartenders were good. Most of the staff were friendly.
The officiant’s dog ruined a cashmere sweater that I ended up having to pay for and his dog attempted to attack my parents dog on three seperate…Sarah L.October 2025
The team at Camp Bellaleo made our wedding day absolutely perfect. From the moment we arrived on site the staff was ready to help with anything we could possibly need, from set up, to meals, to general nerves. Alexa was so supportive and in our corner throughout planning, I am so grateful for the whole team there.
The location was absolutely beautiful. The nature was beautiful and it had the charm of a summer camp which delighted us and our guests. With our decor and events tent it was the perfect wedding venue.
The food was amazing! We heard from our guests all night how impressed they were with the cocktail hour, dinner, and brunch the next day. Chef Phil was so…Aimee M.September 2025
My production team and I just wrapped our 5-day shoot for our short film hosted at Camp Bellaleo, and to say it was a dream would be an understatement. From pre-production location scouting to production wrap, the staff was incredibly accommodating and hospitable, let alone flexible to our shooting schedule. Making sure to feed us 3 nutritious and DELICIOUS meals a day, while letting us capture their camp with free rein, was such a treat, and we can't thank Zak and his staff enough. The staff work incredibly hard year-round to keep this family tradition going, and they aren't even close to slowing down! The entire atmosphere and nostalgia Bellaleo holds for its campers,…

I hosted my engagement party at Camp Bellaleo June 2024, highly recommend!!! The staff were phenomenal. Zak, Vicki, Alexa, and Phil are all super friendly. Phil is an amazing chef accommodating dietary restrictions. There’s plenty of activities to do on site including campfires, volleyball, soccer baseball, a low ropes course, archery, basketball, canoeing/kayaking, and more. They kindly helped set up the campfire for us and even opened up the pool at 8:15am for a polar dip. There’s also so many locations for wedding/engagement photos! Thank you for the memorable weekend.

We spent a weekend up at Camp to celebrate our Wedding in September 2024, and it was a DREAM! Family and friends have been raving about it since. The entire time we were up there Zak, Alexa and the wonderful camp staff took care of us like we were family. They accommodated all of our requests and went above and beyond to help make our day happen! THANK YOU!!
We had the pleasure of coordinating the event for about a year leading up to it, and their communication was consistent and tailored to us! Even before we got to camp we knew we were in good hands!
On Friday our family and bridal party came up to help us install all the little details- I did a lot of DIY for this,…Wendi M.November 2025
Best. Wedding. Ever!!! Our daughter married her best friend at Camp Bellaleo this past September & the whole weekend was filled with love, joy, happiness and so much FUN!!! This beautiful venue brought our friends and family together in a relaxed, rustic, “old school Ontario summer camp” setting.
The team of Zak and Alexa, AKA “Nokomis Weddings”, helped us through the wedding planning process. Zak was very patient with my many, many wedding planning questions & ensured that the on-site chef met our specific meal requests. The website was also helpful by listing recommended vendors. We retained Alexa as our wedding coordinator (highly recommend!) and she took us from the…
