4 Things That Make Glamping At Whispering Springs Feel Truly Luxurious

Dan Levine • March 10, 2026

Glamping promises the beauty of the outdoors with the comforts of a boutique getaway. But what makes Whispering Springs Wilderness Retreat truly unique isn’t just the setting — it’s the details that elevate your stay from simply “camping with perks” to something genuinely special.


Located just 90 minutes east of Toronto, those details are woven into every part of Whispering Springs. From thoughtfully designed accommodations to spa-style amenities and handcrafted cocktails, the stay blends relaxation, nature, and comfort in a way that most people have never experienced anywhere else.


Here are four things that make glamping at Whispering Springs feel truly luxurious.

Breakfast Baskets That Transform Mornings

How a day begins can set the tone for an entire stay.


At Whispering Springs, guests can order breakfast baskets delivered directly to their tent, making it effortless to ease into the morning. Instead of cooking over a campfire or gathering in a communal space, simply step outside and enjoy coffee and food surrounded by the calm of the forest.


Many guests choose to enjoy their meal right on their private outdoor deck, taking in the fresh air and peaceful surroundings as the property slowly comes to life. The baskets include items like homemade granola, yogurt, fresh berries, baked goods, and juice.


It’s a simple detail, but one that transforms the rhythm of an adventure at Whispering Springs.

Spa Amenities That Let You Truly Unwind

A luxurious getaway should help you relax both physically and mentally, and Whispering Springs makes that easy with a range of spa-style amenities designed for restoration.


Guests can enjoy communal and private hot tubs, a cedar barrel sauna, a cold plunge, and a saltwater pool, creating a wellness experience that feels both rejuvenating and immersive. Whether you're recovering after a walk around the property or simply spending an afternoon lounging, these spaces offer a chance to reset and recharge.


Plus, experiencing these amenities surrounded by nature adds a layer of calm that traditional spas can’t replicate.

Soaker Tubs That Turn Your Tent Into a Private getaway

One of the most memorable touches at Whispering Springs is found inside many of the glamping tents themselves.


Select accommodations feature beautiful stand-alone soaker tubs, allowing guests to unwind in warm water while still feeling connected to the surrounding forest. After a day spent exploring the property or enjoying the amenities, slipping into a quiet soak becomes a ritual in itself.


It’s another that transforms the glamping experience from simply comfortable to deeply relaxing – the kind of luxury people don’t expect when they think of camping.

signature Craft Cocktails made by talented mixologists

One of the most delightful surprises at Whispering Springs is something you might normally expect in a downtown cocktail lounge.


At The Watering Hole Guest Bar & Lounge, guests can enjoy expertly crafted drinks prepared by experienced mixologists, alongside a curated selection of local craft beer, fine spirits, and Prince Edward County wine.


The bar’s signature cocktails are a highlight of the experience. Guests can try creative favourites like the S’mortini, Cedar Smoked Old-Fashioned, Spicy Margarita, Great Canadian Caesar, or a refreshing Berry Mojito, sometimes even made with ingredients grown right on the property’s own garden.


After a day spent relaxing in the spa amenities or enjoying the peaceful surroundings, settling in with a thoughtfully prepared cocktail feels like stepping into a cozy cocktail bar — just surrounded by forest instead of city streets.
