Marten River

Carrie Sheldrick

We had a wonderful weekend camping at Marten River. It was nice and quiet even though it was the long weekend. The logging village was interesting. The river was nice to paddle on. Sites are pretty private. Lots of trees for separation and noise buffering. Dog beach area was Beau approved. Will be back.

Very nice park with a variety of sites to suit your needs. Lots of waterfront, or forest campsites. It is a quieter camp ground, with only 220 sites, so nothing felt overly packed. The main beach was okay, the sand not super soft and the slop is difficult to set up anything on, but the water is clear and clean. The park store has very limited options mostly some clothing and collectibles but outside the park the trappers trading post beside the park has everything you might need or have forgotten. Overall our first experience at this park was good I think we will be back to enjoy more of the area.

We had a nice site with our own private beach and kayak launch point. The downside is the highway is close by and you can hear the cars and trucks going by. The site we had was beside the beach, so kids playing all day long can be a nuisance to some, but didn't bother us. Kayaking was great. We did approx 20km in total.

park has a great setting. if you enjoy water, lots of places to paddle and swim. campsites are clean, staff friendly. we enjoyed our stay, all things considered. we arrived later than hoped 530pm. when we arrived at our site the previous tenants were still there.... very nice people who apologized. they thought they were booked for another day. an hour later we were able to start setting up. by 8pm finally able to sit down and relax. very disappointed that the park staff 1- did not check sites, 2- did not offer anything in the way of compensation... a discount at the store or..... very glad we weren't later

Great camping experience! My partner and I have been to Tobermory before and Marten River is a completely different experience. The campsites in our area (50+) are very close and you have to use your car to block the view of your site. Besides that, everything was very neat, staff was friendly and there were park officers walking around and checking on everyone every couple of hours - we felt very safe. The view of the lake is stunning and easily accessible, the beach is nice and there are two options of hiking trails. Overall, it was a great experience and we definitely recommend!!
