How can you fly a Canadian flag and an elbows up flag from the same sign? If you greet me with that nonsense, I leave...

The website is quite detailed so I knew what to expect when booking this park. Its a simple little trailer park, we enjoyed the perks of water, sewer hook up and wifi. When you buy the campfire wood, the owner delivers it to your site and it was dry! The washroom building was clean, shower was hot. The park was quiet overnight, no road noise and everyone was quiet by 11:00. The local park has a beach, big playground, dog park, toilet building, walking path, boat launch and picnic tables. The purpose of our stay was because we had an event in North Bay, so the location was perfect.

I got upset when they called me 3 hours later and said that they’re not welcome me again. I am sure that I have never driven fast because I know that there are a lot of kids. I have kid too. I had stopped at least 3 times when I saw kids on bikes or scooter. If I drove fast how could I stop and How could I say hi to them when I was driving. I was so excited with the living there so we discovered at every single family’s life there. But I have never been complained like that. I believe that I am not a kind of people who don’t care safety of everyone around me. So upset. What I have never received from Japanese and Canadian neither. Though I had here. What a terrible service. And don’t worried I never be your place again.

We stayed for 5 nights. It was a good stay. We didn't have anything to complain about. There's washrooms with running water and showers. Which is cleaned daily. There's four laundry machines. 2 washers and 2 dryers. Bring loonies and quarters. I think if this was a moderate renovated building, it would be perfect. But it does the job and is convenient. The lots are nicer than I thought. Some of the reviews can be discieving. I guess some people have super high expectations of a luxurious wilderness. lol. But it was nice and quiet. Our lot had 30 amp power outlets, water service, and a sewer service. There's plenty of lots with this convenience. There's a garbage bin and a couple of bins of recycling ♻️ as well. There's a lot of trees surrounding the campground. Not much trees between lots. Just one or two. So don't expect 100% privacy if you're beside others. We see that people come and go and people mind their business. There is lots on the edge of the campground. That has lots of trees, it was nice, there's a place for small campers and tents. There's a beach and playground outside of the campsite. Which is just right off the property across the road. Overall, the people were friendly, and Todd and his son were nice. We paid 250 for the five nights. I was glad to pay this price over staying in a hotel and paying that price for one night. We would come again. The pictures were the only was I took.
