We followed our dreams in May 2015 and purchased a forgotten cottage resort in Whitney, Ontario. And just like that, Camp Bongopix was born. We wanted to have a year-round outdoors lifestyle, become part of a small community, grow an exciting business, and nourish our creativity. The last 5 years have been the best of our lives, and we have many more amazing times ahead of us, welcome home!

Meet Andrea and Bongo
Our motto is "love what you do and do what you love."

Hi, I'm Andrea!
My family has deep roots in a small farming community in Crystal Rock, Ontario. Although I grew up in Oshawa, I fell in love with the countryside at a very young age and always dreamed of living rural. I'm especially passionate about sustainable agriculture. I love the challenge of growing your own food in the Algonquin highlands. I have an extensive garden, chickens, and 3 cats. My absolute favourite time of year is March/April when I'm able to collect maple syrup from my Sugar Maple trees. I sell a variety of homemade goods throughout the year, don't hesitate to ask about what I have in stock!

Hi, I'm Bongo!
All my life I've been obsessed with Algonquin Park. Prior to becoming the village minstrel of Whitney, I worked in a variety of industries: construction, tourism, teaching, human resources, and professional photography. My passion for entrepreneurship inspired Camp Bongopix, our retro musical home. I absolutely love being a rural small business owner and I'm very passionate about the community of South Algonquin. My volunteering over the years has steered me toward entering local politics and I now I'm a councillor at the Township of South Algonquin. When I'm not working (which is most of the time), I'm playing music. Oh, and in case if you were wondering, yes, my name is actually Bongo!

Bongopix: The Band
Lifelong music lovers, we became “musicians by accident” when we moved to Whitney in 2015. What started with us playing acoustic guitar for cabin guests at our backyard campfire has morphed into a legendary weekly jam night every Saturday. During the COVID-19 quarantine we entertain on Facebook Live and Instagram Live. Our vibe is authentic acoustic campfire music: country, folk, blues, and rock. Anything that sounds good at the campfire! Next to acoustic guitar, instruments we feature are fiddle, ukulele, bongos, acoustic bass, shakers, and lots of harmonica. We’re the house band at our own cabin resort, Camp Bongopix, and sometimes we play at the local restaurant, Mad Musher. Please contact us below for private bookings!
