Camping is a hit or miss. You'll either get good campers beside you and a good weather or opposite…read moreor worst opposite of both. Booking was alright but limited since most people book way early and for next year, the website shows pics of booking spots which is nice to see but not usually as accurate when arriving to camp spot. Luckily when I went it was funtastic, hot weather with cool winds, camp spot was alright but more rocky then grassy for my tent placement selection. However, I brought enough gear which I prepared for camping such as a hammock, bbq utensils, disposable dishes, cups, food and water just to enjoy the stay. Note: Always bring sweats, sweaters, blankets and sleeping bags because it gets extremely chilly at night. Bring clothes according to the weather and appropriate shoes for hiking or hot weather, I'd say one park of beach sandals and hiking shoes. Washrooms are readily available which is nice, with showers (hot) free, and has a outdoor washer for cleaning dishes. Parking lot is limited to campground however the beach/lake view has large parking areas. Be sure to review their map for activities which is updates monthly, there are plenty of things to do such as the theatre which is a learning centre. Their website contains specific bookings for their programs too that include stargazing. Be mindful that this is also a national park, meaning there is an entrance fee and depending on your camp stay you'll need to pay for those days too per person. See website for more info. https://www.pc.gc.ca/en/index As for wild animals just be cautious, follow the guidelines mostly seen from the brochures upon entrance fee. Take your time to visit the tourism spots and nice picnic areas. Recommended for first time campers or camping goers. Trails for hikers, people who like to camp with friends or family. July is the best time to swim later months lake is algae infested. I would definitely come back here again. At night the beach view is amazing when sun goes down almost romantic as the night stars appear. It would have been spectacular if I camped when the northern lights were at its highest.

RV, tenting, and they have yurt camping which looks amazing and it's on my list to try. Some sites are more difficult than others to set up a tent. The ground is just too packed down and rocky. And other sites I've been on haven't been an issue. Pit toilets and flush toilets. Day use area has the best cellular network connection. Depending on where your site is there is a high likelihood you won't have any. There is some sandy beachiness in the day use area, but you cannot swim in the lake. My favourite part is that it is a dark sky preserve. It's wonderful at night to watch the sky in the amazing quiet of nature.

Staff is ok, no time to chat at times due to constant maintenance and work. Grass is well kept, lots of washrooms almost everywhere which is great! The park has a beach which is busy, volleyball on the side and kids playground. There are change rooms nearby with a fairly clean washroom and water pump to rinse off. Boating on the docks near the beach. Trails that lead to other campgrounds but if your looking to camp you may need to book.
