Durham Conservation Area

Trevor McNichol

Overall, it was a beautiful conservation. If the main showers were updated, I would have given it a 5 star. The river is perfect for young kids. The speed of a lazy river. You can stand up in it. Perfect for a tube just to float down. The 1 st beach is very nice, but if you walk/drive down 1km further, the next beach is even better for young kids. We had a family reunion in the group camping area. The staff were great to us. Would definitely recommend it.

This campground is poorly maintained. The roads are narrow and sites are difficult to get into without encroaching on someone else's site. The water and electric connections are hidden in the overgrown bushes and trees. Grass has not been cut for some time. We camped here in a 24 ft class C. Definitely will not return to this location.

Campsites are either tree enclosed or no trees anywhere. Sites with power and water are nice. You have to buy their wood for $10.00/bag only lasted one night! Staff are friendly, lots for teens and young ones to do, ie. Basketball, volleyball, horseshoes, swimming but beach is a car drive away.

Includes McGowan falls. I dunno if I got confused or whatever; it seemed like it was just dam that was a few metres tall. Has a few picnic tables, a river with rocks that you can throw into, a washroom with soap and paper, swings, a slide, and inoffensive scenery. If you add a few filters and the right time of day, I’m sure you could scrounge up something Instagram worthy. Well, it’s nice, too, to have a place that isn’t too popular. Good enough for a few minutes’ stroll, or a casual afternoon lunch.
