We paddled [about 30 minutes] in to our wonderful camping site in late June, 2018. Canoes can be rented. The site was very private, roomy, with a well-built fire-pit and many huge white pine trees. Staff were friendly, helpful and sold huge $5 bags of firewood. The firewood requires splitting so be sure to pack in a small splitting maul [Like a Fiskars X11 - Google it.] Near the camp office are hot showers, flush toilets and tested drinking water -- all surprise bonuses for me. We saw loons and heard them at night, watched a water snake prowl around in front of our site [completely harmless if not provoked], heard a coyote, and heard an osprey hunting over water at our site. Lake water was warm for swimming and our site had a sandy beach. The lake is big enough to spend hours exploring by canoe and it's ridiculously close to Kingston and the 401. This is an UNKNOWN GEM.

Great, quiet ,family friendly camping. I do wish their bathroom facilities were larger, there are only two showers, and that they were more modern. The beach area is very small and could use some grading as it is steep.

Great campground with canoe access to sites. And if you pay $15, the staff will bring your gear in by boat. Great swimming, hiking, canoeing... And portaging for the adventurous!

Great experience! The staff was wonderful and caring. They even asked if we had forgotten toilet paper! Hahah. I would make sure to bring a good pair of running shoes as I didn't think of it and I was wearing sandals. There is A LOT of red ants and they like to bite..
