View Down the Road
Come see Otter River Farms and experience life on the Big Otter valley. We have a great five-bedroom guest house, four rustic cabins, and wilderness camp sites for those who enjoy camping. Explore the Carolinian forest, enjoy our excellent nature retreat and experience the variety of flora and fauna in our giant ravines, woodlots, rolling hills and streams.

Fall in Our Valley
We are located eight minutes from Port Burwell, in Southwestern Ontario (south of Tillsonburg) five kilometers inland from Lake Erie.

Naturalists will enjoy our rarities, such as the Acadian flycatcher, which nests on our property. Like trees? We have them in all sizes and (nearly!) all species. With some of the wildest country in southwestern Ontario, our property offers challenges for both the inexperienced and experienced outdoorsman.
