Since the nearest parking to the Grotto was unavailable and completely booked for the upcoming 3…read moreweeks, we figured it would be fun to do the 2 hour hike to the Grotto from here. Upon arrival, we were told the parking was full and that it was better to come back 2-3 hours later. We turned around, drove for about 10 minutes and then came back to give our phone number to the employee so he could call us if any spots opened up. He immediately told us that it was OK for us to enter, since we were from Quebec and we drove about 9 hours to get to this place. Thank you to Jeff, the employee at the front desk for answering all of our questions, being very friendly and extremely helpful by letting us in!!!! The hike was totally worth it, the views are breathtaking, although you cannot enter the Grotto due to COVID. It was very relaxing, the water is at a lovely temperature as well, it is possible to swim on a sunnier day (just be careful because the rocks are slippery). There are bathrooms at the beginning of the trail. Bring your food with you, as well as water bottles since it's impossible to fill them up onsite.

i have camped across Canada and this is the stupidest campground I have encountered, private,…read moremunicipal, or provincially run. First, a 40 min wait in line to get the permit only to be told the I have to leave the campground to fill the water tank at the dumping station. No sign to indicate this outside the campground. Then a "ban" on alcohol and cannabis outside specific hours. (Not to mention a total "ban" on holiday weekends. They can't provide appropriate security so responsible adults suffer. The showers are ridiculous. You get to press the button twice for a weak stream of tepid water. And there is only one shower facility for the entire place. The site assigned is extremely small even though they claim it is suitable for my size trailer. Be very cautious with their website information! The setting is glorious. Well worth a day trip but you would be better at a provincial or private campground. This one is awful.

We went camping at Bruce Peninsula Park in September, the week after Labour Day. The crowds were…read morenot horrible but I would expect the park to busier during summer months.

It also depends on what you think a national park should be. As far as my opinion, it should be viewing beautiful sights and seeing animals. Serenity. This is not that. At all. If you think a national park should be a splash down water park, you're gonna love it. But you've got people walking the trails yelling at each other. You have people playing music loudly on the trails, as if they need their own personal theme song guiding them on their way. I even saw a Québécois stranger holding a dog in one hand, little child in another, walking in sandals at the Grotto on slick rock formations, jumping from one to the next. It was a disaster waiting to happen. It truly was an unpleasant experience. Look, the park tries to manage it. You have to reserve spots at both the Grotto and Halfway Log Dump. You have to pay a substantial fee to reserve as well. There are checkpoints going in like you're at Panmunjom on the Korean border. But it doesn't matter. There are still too many people. I think it is just too close to Toronto. My recommendation to anyone wanting a more peaceful national park experience would be to go to northern Ontario and visit Pukaskwa. Or even Lake Superior Provincial Park. They are both what I would want out of a park. I hate saying this, but I'd avoid the peninsula altogether.

Clean bathrooms, very nice grounds, great staff, virtually no other campers which was my favorite. I didn't use the pay showers or swim in the pool but they looked good.

Close to town so I could bicycle there ~2.5-3.0 miles and not have to pay for parking in town. I would stay here again in the off season.

Bridal Veil Falls is a waterfall near the town of Kagawong on Lake Huron's Manitoulin Island,…read moreOntario, Canada. The water source is the Kagawong River which flows from Lake Kagawong to the North Channel of Lake Huron. It has a height of approximately 35 feet. (Wikipedia) Public washrooms are available and several picnic tables are scattered around if you choose to have lunch. During the summer months, arrive early because the parking lot is small and will fill up quickly. Hiking trail are beautiful and choosing to take them to the end rewards you with a small touristy spot complete with and old fashioned candy store and soda shop.

If you want to visit the park, plan far in advance, especially for summer months. Most sites are booked 6 months in advance. Bring sturdy hiking boots, especially for the "Crack" hike, there is a lot of climbing and jumping from rock to rock. Also, bring your own firewood, the one they sell in the park is wet and rotten, cut from the fallen trees. The only place you can buy dry firewood nearby is Killarney outfitters but it costs a ridiculous $16+tax for the bag of firewood that will last you for 2-3 hours.

A beach with Adirondack chairs to relax in after a morning of fishing. The lodge is a great place to hang out during rainy days. Boat launch, and plenty of dock space. Cons: The only con I have is that I live 14 hours away, that and no dogs are allowed. My family has been going to French River for close to 20 years now and every time we leave with memories that will last a lifetime. Waking up in the morning and fishing, and then coming back to the cabin to cook breakfast before we filet our catch in the morning. Water skiing, drinking, sunbathing, swimming, playing board games during the day followed by a sunset view from 'the rock' overlooking the beach and finishing the day with a fire. This place is truly a gem that my family cherishes. After so many memories here as a child I cannot wait to take my children.
