Nigel Hutching
A nice family oriented campground, run by a hard-working young couple. We camped in a tent for a couple of nights to breathe in some country air after visiting Montreal. The amenities were dated, but clean & ample hot water. A new in-ground swimming pool to replace the lake that got washed out in a flood. A few essentials & some merchandise available on-site. Mirrelle, you are a lovely person & it was a pleasure to meet you 🙃

Super kind gentleman allowed us to arrive late during our cross-Canada road trip after struggling to find a campground that would let us in at that time. We stayed in a lovely little tent site in the “sauvage” area. Very quiet and clean. Thanks so much again.

They make you feel at home. Restrooms are clean, they really make an effort, it shows. Small lake to swim with clean water, that is fed by a stream. If you like trees, this is not your parking lot type camping, it has trees.

Wonderful campsite to spend time with the family. Our land was very beautiful and clean. The seasonal workers are very welcoming and the curfew is well respected, it is so important to ensure a good night's sleep for my coconuts. The beach is beautiful and we had a lot of fun on the lake. I recommend this place, it's very safe with young children, but you should think about putting lights near the parks, to be able to enjoy them in the evening.
