Cardinal / Ottawa South KOA Holiday
Now Booking for 2022 Camping!
The Cardinal / Ottawa South KOA is family camping at its best. Located just an hour from Ottawa and close to the 1000 Islands region, this is the ultimate destination for eastern Ontario camping. Spend your weekends or entire vacations on our campground and enjoy a wide variety of amenities, including our splash pad, pool, pirate ship playground, Big Bouncer and mini putt. The kids will enjoy our themed weekend activities, or take the family on a day trip to explore Ottawa or the St. Lawrence river area.
Our sites range from big-rig friendly 50 amp patio sites to large treed 30 amp back-in sites to our convenient deluxe cabins and lodges. Each site has a picnic table, fire ring, water source and electricity.
Get away from the noise of the highway and bustle of the city in our beautiful, quiet, rural location. Nightly quiet hours between 11:00 PM and 8:00 AM provide a secure and relaxing experience for our guests.
NOTE: WE DO NOT HAVE SEWERS ON OUR SITES. WE DO HAVE A DUMPING STATION OR THE HONEY WAGON CAN COME TO YOUR SITE TO PUMP FOR A FEE OF $11.50 per dump. THE HONEY WAGON IS NOT AVAILABLE DURING MEAL TIMES OR ON SUNDAY MORNINGS WHEN WE USE IT FOR DEPARTING GUESTS.

Came for a visit at the end of July. We stayed in one of the cabins. The campground is well maintained. There were a lot of rules. We did our best to follow them. The fact we could only use pool in 30 minute increments was a little excessive. Hopefully when the pandemic restrictions soften they will let more people use pool as it really made things less fun. The owners were ok. We didn't have a bad experience with them but when I did speak to them they certainly weren't the nicest or best hosts that we have had at KOA's. The owners weren't mean. Just seemed busy all the time. Can't be easy to run a business in a pandemic so I have to say it wasn't a deal breaker for us. The campground was only about half full. Perhaps the pandemic was the reason why or maybe the bad reviews are finally catching up to them. We used this campground as a base to go visit Ottawa. Drive to Ottawa wasn't bad. Was nice to have all the outdoor activities for the kids.

owner is a real piece of work. rude. unreal that he has this place. breaks my heart to see human waste like this making money. talk about non deserving. contacted KOA org. they don't care either. its a sad place to go. not worth the hassle. go somewhere else. this guy needs to suffer, only way he will learn if his bushiness dries up. that's what he deserves, a real classless a$$. stay away.

Been coming camping here for at least the last 3 years, and we love this place. Great for the whole family with lots of activities for everyone. Our kids love the play structures, bounce pillows, pool and splash pad (when they are open in the summer). The staff put in a lot of effort during the summer making each weekend a different theme, with themed activities and events. Sites and facilities are very nice, and all of the staff is super friendly and helpful. Will continue camping here with the family for many years to come!
