This is our first time at this park campground. It's huge! There's a beach area, a boat docking area, and a marina restaurants. It's really clean and quiet. We loved it! The bathroom, laundry room, and shower stalls were all clean and well-kept. We'll definitely be coming back!

This is going to be detailed review that might answer your questions! You would need to pay an entrance fee to visit the park (car + amount of people in the car). There is a restaurant, a beach, a pet-friendly beach, a boat launch, a gas dock, a marina, a camping area (for trailers), and lots of picnic areas along with 5 washrooms (some with showers) located around the park. The park gets really busy on the weekends, meaning the picnic tables are first come, first serve. Lots of parking spaces located at the beach. The beach gate access #1 is CLOSED on the weekends but OPENED on the weekdays in the summer - this is for safety reasons, however this would mean that it is not friendly for accessibility. Though, there are still accessible parking spots. BBQ is allowed only at picnic areas. The washrooms are cleaned and restocked throughout the day, though the beach gets messier than usual on the weekends. You can wash the sand off your feet behind the men’s beach washroom. There are no showers in the beach washrooms, however, there are showers at the campgrounds. The Winona pavilion need to be rented out in order to use, or you’ll get kicked out - there are clean porta potties nearby. Fishing is not allowed on the marina dock. You can fish in the pond. Biking/skating is not allowed on the wooden parts of the dock. If you’d like a picnic table moved, you may do so at your own risk. Lastly, CAUTION - there’s a lot of ticks in tall grasses so be aware. This is all I can think of right now, I will edit if there are any more future questions! Also, please give this a like so others will see! Thank you!

Quaint, with trails for running, cycling or just a stroll with an impressive marina nestled amongst campgrounds along the shores of Lake Ontario. Perfect for a flat 10-15k run with optional refreshments at the marina restaurant. Beach areas have pavilions, picnic areas & barbecues all within proximity of parking & facilities. Noted quite a few bird watches with set look outs provided. Lovely off season for runs, strolls or just sweet solitude. Located in subdivision but still has that pure conservation ambience!

A bit costly to get in here compared to other national and provincial parks but well worth it of you plan on spending the day here. Lots to do here especially for boaters. Two small trails here, one that leads to a beach area and one to a secluded area where you can see Toronto in the distance. Park is really clean and well maintained. Overall it's a nice location to spend a few hours, where you get away from the city and relax.
