We simply needed a place to pop our tent up and rest our heads, this was perfect. Right off the highway, and our campsite was in front of the pond which was cute!

We booked a tent lot for the weekend but ended up leaving after just one night — it was that unpleasant. Our site had zero privacy, with another tent just 20 feet away and no trees or barriers in between. There was little to no shade, and the lot was covered in goose poop, like it hadn’t been cleaned all season. On top of that, the lots are tiny, and ours was basically a shortcut to the beach, so people were constantly walking through it. There were unsupervised kids running through our space and even throwing rocks at geese. Between that and the constant noise from the 401 highway (yes, it’s right next to it), this was not the peaceful camping experience we were looking for. The place honestly felt more like a trailer park than a campground. To be fair, the pool was clean and the staff were friendly, but that wasn’t nearly enough to make up for the rest. Might be okay for families with kids who don’t mind the noise and lack of nature, but for couples or anyone looking for quiet, privacy, or a real camping vibe — I’d look elsewhere.

If you're a seasonal camper then you get special privileges like no dogs on a leash, 2 or more vehicles on the site even if you block the roadway, have loud late drunk campfire gatherings, dogs swimming at the beach, parking infront of the dump station and being able to tell people weather they have the write to use the family washroom or must use the common washrooms.

I've been camping here since 2008, grew up here, and loved it as a kid. Now that I have kids, they love it as well! They always have something going on every weekend for the kids and adults. They have two pools, a few parks for the kids, and clean bathrooms/shower! I would recommend everyone to camp here 😀

Great camping spot for a family or couples. Morrisburg is approximately 7 or 8 mins away. Cornwall is about 25 mins.
