Fairview Park Camping & Marina

15 RV Sites, 4 Tent Sites, 2 Cottages

Fairview Park Camping & Marina in North Bay, ON, offers 15 full-hookup RV sites, 1 cottage, and 4 tent sites, with 20 and 30-amp service and room for rigs up to 80 feet. Sites come as back-ins and pull-thrus, each carrying water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi, a fire pit, and a picnic table. At 80 feet the pull-thrus take a longer rig than nearly anything else in the region, though the 20 and 30-amp service means a rig wired for heavier draw will need an adapter and some load management. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, a dump station, and on-site dining cover the essentials. Pets are welcome. The marina is the anchor: boat slips, boat docks, a boat ramp, and a fishing pier put guests straight onto the water, with an outdoor pool, a hot tub and sauna, a beach, a pond, and swimming, paddling, fishing, and biking alongside. There's a casino on the property and golf nearby. The park sits along the Lavase River minutes from downtown North Bay, with Lake Nipissing opening up just beyond. Rates for sites, the cottage, and tent spots are on the booking page. Boat slips book separately — ask when you reserve.

Woodland Park

3 RV Sites, 10 Tent Sites

Woodland Park in Sauble Beach, Ontario, offers three full-hookup RV sites and 10 tent sites a short walk from Lake Huron, with 30-amp service and rigs accepted to 60 feet behind a gated entrance. Back-in and pull-through categories join a beach, boat ramp, boat docks, recreation center, and on-site dining. Three sites run in back-in and pull-through categories, both carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30-amp, sized to 60 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. One thing to check: service is 30-amp, so a rig wired for heavier draw will need an adapter and some load management. Sixty feet accommodates a long coach with a tow. Ten tent sites and cabins round out the lodging. A general store, dump station, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. A beach, boat ramp, and boat docks open the water for boating, canoeing, kayaking, swimming, and fishing, with a recreation center, playground, walking trails, hiking, dog park, horseshoes, on-site dining, and productive birding filling the rest. Pets are welcome. Sauble Beach is the reason to be here. Seven miles of continuous natural sand along Lake Huron's freshwater coast make it the most visited freshwater beach community in Canada, and the campground entrance is a short walk from it. The water is warm by Great Lakes standards and the sunsets over open water are the town's daily event. The Bruce Peninsula runs north from here toward Tobermory, the Bruce Trail, and Bruce Peninsula National Park's grotto and turquoise water. Summer is decisively the season. Reserve well ahead for July and August.

Sun Retreats Sherkston Shores

66 RV Sites, 29 Cabins, 46 Tent Sites, 55 Cottages

Sun Retreats Sherkston Shores in Port Colborne, Ontario, offers 66 full-hookup RV sites, 84 cabin and cottage units, and 46 tent sites across 560 acres on four kilometers of Lake Erie beachfront, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 70 feet behind a gated entrance. Waterfront and premium full-hookup categories join a 30-amp tier, alongside a water park, splash pad, and mini-golf. Sixty-six sites run in full hookup 30-amp, premium full hookup 30/50-amp, and waterfront full hookup 30/50-amp categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric with site WiFi, sized to 70 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. The waterfront category is the one to request. Eighty-four cabins and cottages and 46 tent sites make the lodging inventory far larger than the RV side. A general store, laundry, propane fills and exchange, restrooms, showers, firewood, boat storage, recycling, and food trucks handle the practical side. The property was formerly Sherkston Shores Beach Resort & Campground. A water park and splash pad anchor the summer, with an outdoor pool, hot tub, sauna, and the beach alongside. Mini-golf, a fitness center, clubhouse, game room, arcade, sports courts, tennis, pickleball, volleyball, basketball, golf cart rentals, a playground, dog park, and bar fill the rest, with boating, paddle boarding, canoeing, kayaking, fishing, hiking, biking, live music, and Niagara wine country nearby. The scale rivals dedicated resort destinations. Summer is decisively the season. Reserve well ahead.

Bobcaygeon Shores Cottage Resort

2 Park Models

Bobcaygeon Shores Cottage Resort in Kawartha Lakes, ON, offers 2 park models alongside cottage accommodation. This is a cottage resort rather than a serviced RV park — the published record shows no RV sites or hookups, so contact them directly if you're traveling in a rig. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, on-site dining, propane exchange, and a recreation center serve guests. Pets are welcome. The waterfront carries the property: boat docks, a boat ramp, a beach, sport courts, and a playground, with fishing and boating on Pigeon Lake. Bobcaygeon sits in Ontario's Kawartha Lakes region, where the Trent-Severn Waterway's 240-mile navigable corridor between Lake Ontario and Georgian Bay passes through a chain of interconnected lakes and lock stations. Lock 32 is in the village itself. Rates for the park models and cottages are on the booking page. The Ontario summer season is short and the Kawarthas fill — reserve well ahead, and call about RV accommodation before you tow.

Bruce's Landing RV Resort

1 RV Site

Bruce's Landing RV Resort in Cayuga, Ontario, offers 1 unserviced waterview and waterfront RV site on the Grand River, with rigs accepted to 40 feet, open all year. A general store, recreation center, playground, and river frontage serve a small property in Haldimand County. The site is unserviced waterview and waterfront, sized to 40 feet, with a fire pit and picnic table. Plan accordingly — this is a self-contained site without hookups, so arrive with full water and empty tanks and confirm current dump and fill arrangements when you book. The unserviced designation is stated plainly in the category name, which is more candid than many properties manage. Contact the resort about additional site availability and amp service. A general store, restrooms, propane exchange, recreation center, and playground handle the practical side, with fishing, boating, and picnicking on the river. Pets are welcome. The Grand River is one of Ontario's great natural corridors — a designated Canadian Heritage River recognized for its natural, cultural, and recreational values as it runs south from the Dundalk Highlands to Lake Erie. Along its lower reaches through Haldimand County the river widens and slows through mixed farmland and woodlot, with smallmouth bass, pike, and one of the better walleye runs in southern Ontario. Cayuga sits on the river with Ruthven Park's historic estate close, Lake Erie's beaches about 20 minutes south, and Niagara Falls within an hour east. Summer is the season in southern Ontario, with the spring and fall fishing runs drawing anglers. Reserve ahead, and arrive self-contained.

Cedar Valley Cottage Resort

On the scenic Scugog River in the City of Kawartha Lakes, Ontario—in the rolling agricultural and cottage-country landscape east of Lindsay where the Trent-Severn Waterway's interconnected lakes, rivers, and locks create one of the most celebrated inland boating corridors in eastern Canada—Cedar Valley Cottage Resort, a Summerhill Resorts property, offers two and three-bedroom seasonal cottages with full kitchens and comfortable furnishings alongside premium waterfront docks, a multi-sports court with road hockey, pickleball, tennis, and basketball, direct fishing and boating access from the Scugog River, and the immediate proximity to the Kawartha Lakes region's trails, provincial parks, and the historic town of Lindsay that makes this cottage-country resort the complete base camp for a Kawartha summer season from May through October. The river is at your dock. Lindsay is minutes away. Cedar Valley's two and three-bedroom cottages provide the family-scale accommodation that the Kawartha Lakes seasonal market demands—full kitchens for self-catering the week, comfortable furnishings for the evening post-lake gathering, and the private cottage character that distinguishes a cottage-country stay from a standard campground experience. The premium Scugog River docks allow guests with their own boats to arrive by water or launch directly onto the river for the fishing, the leisurely river exploration, and the Trent-Severn Waterway lock system navigation that makes the Kawartha waterway network one of Ontario's great boating destinations. The multi-sports court's road hockey, pickleball, tennis, and basketball keep the active family and the competitive adults equally occupied during the dry-weather hours between lake sessions. The Kawartha Lakes region—City of Kawartha Lakes encompasses the former Victoria County's interconnected municipalities, conservation areas, and provincial parks in a landscape shaped by Precambrian Shield bedrock, glacial lakes, and the rivers that connect them—provides the fishing, boating, and nature experience that the Ontario cottage tradition has organized itself around since the 19th century. The Scugog River connects the resort directly to the Trent-Severn Waterway, the 386-kilometer engineered waterway that links Lake Ontario at Trenton to Georgian Bay at Port Severn through 44 locks and 6 lakes in the most complete inland boating route in Ontario. Lindsay, minutes from the resort, provides the essential Kawartha Lakes town infrastructure—the farmers market, the historic downtown shopping, the medical and grocery services, and the community events calendar that the City of Kawartha Lakes anchors in its largest urban center. The Petroglyphs Provincial Park, 45 miles north near Woodview, protects the largest concentration of Indigenous petroglyphs in Canada—the 900-plus carved figures in the crystalline limestone outcropping are among the most significant sacred sites in Ontario's First Nations heritage. Fenelon Falls, Bobcaygeon, and the other Kawartha Lakes waterfront communities provide the day-trip variety that the cottage-country touring circuit builds around locks, ice cream shops, and antique stores along the Trent-Severn. Cedar Valley Cottage Resort operates seasonally from May 1 through October 31 in the Kawartha Lakes' temperate Ontario summer climate, with June through Labour Day the peak cottage season and the September and October shoulder weeks offering the region's most comfortable temperatures, the autumn walleye and bass fishing peak, and the hardwood forest's fall color display that the Kawartha uplands produce in the October weeks before closing. Reserve your cottage at Cedar Valley and let the Scugog River, the Trent-Severn Waterway, and the Kawartha Lakes' complete cottage-country experience make Ontario's inland lake district the summer destination the resort's river location promises.

Leisure Lake Cottage & RV Resort

Leisure Lake Cottage and RV Resort in Kingsville, Ontario, provides a lakefront family camping and cottage resort on Lake Erie's north shore in Essex County, positioned at the heart of Canada's southernmost wine and agricultural region where the lake's moderating climate produces the viticultural conditions that have made the surrounding Pelee Island and Lake Erie North Shore wine appellation Ontario's warmest and most distinctly Mediterranean-influenced wine country. Kingsville's position at the same latitude as northern California and the southern edges of France creates the seasonal climate that supports not only wine grapes but also the tomato greenhouses and agricultural diversity that distinguish Essex County from every other Ontario county in agricultural character and landscape. The resort's facility delivers complete cottage-resort camping for families and adult couples: a gated entrance, full hookup sites, cottage rentals, a beach on Lake Erie, an outdoor pool and splash pad, mini-golf, paddle boats, a game room, craft room, planned activities and entertainment, basketball, shuffleboard, horseshoes, volleyball, playground, pavilion, a general store, propane fills, laundry, showers, bathrooms, dump station, and Wi-Fi provide organized recreation for multi-day family vacation stays with the cottage alternative that makes the resort accessible to non-RV guests. The fishing on Lake Erie—one of the most productive walleye fisheries in the world—provides the adult outdoor recreation that supplements the resort's family activity programming. Point Pelee National Park, approximately 15 minutes west of Kingsville, is Canada's most famous bird migration concentration point—the southernmost tip of the Canadian mainland juts into Lake Erie in a funnel that concentrates spring and fall bird migrants in numbers that make Point Pelee one of North America's premier birding destinations, drawing ornithologists and amateur birders from across the continent each May when the warbler migration peaks in numbers that can produce 30 or more warbler species in a single morning walk through the park's Carolinian forest ecosystem. The park's beach and the boardwalk through the point's marsh habitat provide year-round natural area access beyond the migration spectacle. The Lake Erie North Shore wine appellation's wineries between Leamington and Amherstburg produce the most distinctly warm-climate Ontario wines—the region's heat accumulation and the lake's late-season thermal moderation allow the full ripening of cabernet franc, merlot, and the ice wine grapes that freeze reliably in the November cold snaps that Lake Erie's shoreline delivers after the growing season's exceptional warmth. Pelee Island Winery's mainland operation in Kingsville and the island winery accessible by ferry from Leamington represent the wine trail anchor experiences that make a Kingsville-area stay particularly rewarding for wine-oriented camping guests. Leisure Lake Cottage and RV Resort operates seasonally from spring through fall in Essex County's Great Lakes climate, with the summer season from late June through Labour Day delivering the resort's peak family activity and the Point Pelee beach's Lake Erie swimming conditions that the shallow lake's rapid warming makes available in July and August. The spring May Point Pelee birding migration is the region's most distinctive seasonal spectacle, drawing nature-focused guests in numbers that fill Essex County accommodation during the peak warbler weeks, and the fall harvest season's winery programming extends meaningful tourism visitation into October in one of Ontario's most underappreciated regional tourism corridors.

Scugog Landing Cottage & RV Resort

Port Perry, Ontario, is one of the best-preserved Victorian main streets in Durham Region, an hour northeast of Toronto at the head of Lake Scugog in the southern edge of cottage country. Scugog Landing Cottage & RV Resort occupies 120 acres of rolling Ontario landscape incorporated into the Trent-Severn Waterway just ten minutes from Port Perry's waterfront, combining genuine cottage country character with resort infrastructure that accommodates both RV travelers and guests arriving without their own accommodation. The resort offers a range of RV sites with full services alongside cottage and cabin rental options that give guests the Lake Scugog experience without requiring property ownership on the water. The grounds are expansive and thoughtfully laid out, with the lake providing direct waterfront access for boating, fishing, and paddling from the resort's own shoreline. At 120 acres, the scale ensures that even fully booked summer weekends feel uncrowded and spacious — a quality that resorts on smaller properties simply cannot replicate. Pets are welcome throughout. Lake Scugog and the Trent-Severn Waterway form the twin defining features of the surrounding landscape: flat, mirror-calm water, marshland edges alive with waterfowl, and the measured pace of a historic canal system that has been drawing Ontario cottagers for generations. The Trent-Severn is one of Canada's most beloved recreational waterways, stretching 386 kilometers through Ontario's lake country and providing a boating route of genuine historical and natural significance. Lock 26 operates nearby, and watching cruisers and sailboats work through the lock mechanism is a quintessentially Canadian cottage-country experience that visitors from outside Ontario rarely anticipate and consistently remember. Great blue herons, Canada geese, and various duck species populate the Lake Scugog shoreline through the warm-weather months, giving the waterfront an animated natural quality that persists from dawn through evening. The Kawartha Lakes region surrounding Port Perry combines agricultural countryside with lakeside scenery in a way that feels distinctly and authentically Canadian. Port Perry's Victorian downtown rewards a morning of exploration: boutiques, galleries, bookstores, cafés, and antique shops line Queen Street toward the Lake Scugog waterfront, and the Boathouse Grill is a local institution for lakeside dining worth reserving. The Great Blue Heron Casino in Port Perry offers evening entertainment just minutes from camp. The summer months bring the Highland Games, Dragon Boat Races, and StreetFest to the Port Perry community, layering festival energy on top of the already-rich outdoor and culinary calendar. Scugog Landing operates through the Ontario camping season, with summer bookings — especially for waterfront cottages and preferred RV sites — filling months in advance given the resort's proximity to the Toronto metropolitan area. Friday-through-Sunday availability is always limited during peak summer months; longer stays of a week or more offer the best chance at securing preferred positions on the water. The resort's established community of returning guests gives Scugog Landing a warm, familiar character that first-time visitors tend to notice within the first day of settling in.

Shady Acres Cottage & RV Resort

Shady Acres Cottage & RV Resort has served as a beloved Rice Lake family destination for over 30 years from its prime position along the northern shore of one of the Kawarthas' most scenic and fish-rich lakes. With more than 300 full-service campsites including waterfront locations, a heated pool, cottage rentals, and full marina services for boating guests, Shady Acres delivers the complete Kawarthas cottage country experience in a campground setting accessible to the broadest range of Ontario outdoor enthusiasts. On-site recreation covers an impressive range: horseshoe pits with regular Sunday tournaments, shuffleboard courts, basketball, a children's playground, and a heated pool provide the daily activity framework, while dances on long weekends, bingo, a kids' fishing tournament in June, Halloween Night in July, annual fireworks, a golf tournament in August, Monte Carlo night, and a September corn roast fill the social calendar with the community events that keep shady acres' core of returning campers planning their next visit before the current one ends. A general store, laundry, security gates, and clean washrooms and showers handle the practical side of a longer stay. Boat, motor, and dock rentals, a boat launch, and complimentary fish freezing ensure Rice Lake anglers are fully equipped. All RV sites feature 30-amp service, water, and sewer. Pets are welcome. Rice Lake itself is the resort's defining natural feature — a large, shallow, island-dotted lake that is one of the premier walleye and muskie fisheries in Ontario's Kawartha Lakes region. The lake's natural productivity and its position on the Trent-Severn Waterway make it a destination for anglers and boaters who use shady acres keene as a home base for extended water-based exploration. Lang Pioneer Village Museum, a short drive from the resort, preserves 19th-century Ontario rural life in an open-air village setting with costumed interpreters, historic buildings, and operating traditional trades. Hopes Mill Conservation Area and the Warsaw Caves provide geological and natural history interest close to camp. Peterborough, the Kawartha Lakes' largest urban center, offers dining, shopping, and the Canadian Canoe Museum — one of the country's most unique heritage institutions celebrating the canoe's central role in Canadian identity — within 30 minutes of Shady Acres. Shady Acres Cottage & RV Resort is open through the Ontario camping season, with peak demand falling June through August when Rice Lake's warm summer temperatures and the resort's social calendar are simultaneously in full swing. Seasonal sites are held by returning families year after year, so book overnight and weekly stays early — shady acres resort's reputation in the Kawarthas has created a loyal clientele that ensures summer availability is genuinely competitive.

Silent Valley Cottage & RV Resort

9 RV Sites, 2 Cabins, 18 Tent Sites

Silent Valley Cottage and RV Resort in West Grey, Ontario, offers 9 full-hookup RV sites, two cabins, and 18 tent sites across 400 forested acres, with 30-amp service and rigs accepted to 40 feet behind a gated entrance. Voyageur full service and partial service categories join an outdoor pool, beach, disc golf course, and jumping pillow. Nine back-in sites run in Voyageur full service and Voyageur partial service categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted, sized to 40 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Confirm your tier, as the partial service category does not carry the full hookup set. One thing to check: service is 30-amp, so a rig wired for heavier draw will need an adapter. Two cabins and 18 tent sites round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, dump station, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. The resort operates from Victoria Day through Thanksgiving. An outdoor pool and beach anchor the summer, with a lake for swimming and fishing. A disc golf course, jumping pillow, recreation center, playground, volleyball, horseshoes, and picnicking fill the rest, with planned activities through the season and a golf course nearby. Pets are welcome. Four hundred acres for nine RV sites is a remarkable ratio — this is genuine mature hardwood and conifer forest with a small resort inside it, and the quiet is what the name promises and what guests come back for. Natural ponds and a large spring-fed lake sit on the property. Grey County's countryside puts the Bruce Peninsula, Owen Sound, and Blue Mountain within reach. The season is short. Reserve well ahead for July and August.

Spring Valley Cottage & RV Resort

Spring Valley Cottage and RV Resort in Mount Forest, Ontario, offers full-hookup RV sites across a lushly treed seasonal property with four lakes and two heated saltwater pools, behind a gated entrance. Mini-golf, a beach, sports courts, recreation center, and walking trails serve more than 250 full-service sites. Sites carry water, sewer, and electric in back-in configurations, with fire pits and picnic tables. Contact the resort to confirm amp service, length limits, and current category availability for your rig — the published site records are incomplete. A general store, laundry, propane exchange, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. The resort operates seasonally from May through October. Two heated saltwater pools anchor the property — saltwater rather than chlorine is genuinely easier on skin and eyes over a long stay, and having two means you are never crowded. Four lakes, a sandy beach, mini-golf, a recreation center, sports courts, basketball, volleyball, horseshoes, walking trails, and a playground fill the rest, with swimming and fishing on the water. Four lakes on one property is unusual and gives the resort genuine range — swimming in one, fishing another, quiet paddling on a third. Mount Forest sits in Wellington County's rolling farm and woodlot country in southwestern Ontario. The Holstein Rodeo, the Wellington North trail network, Neustadt Springs Brewery, the Neustadt Mill Antique Market, and St. Paul's Normanby Church are all close, with Toronto about two hours southeast and the Bruce Peninsula north. The season runs May through October, with July and August the clear peak. Reserve well ahead for summer, and confirm dates before planning a shoulder-season trip.
