This park is second to none (in our opinion) and offers close to 300 prime waterfront campsite.. Most have a nice sandy beach and lots to see with the activities on the ponds. You'll be pampered here with wood, ice, canoes and icecream delivered right to youru site! Join the kids in 'yoohooing' across the ponds at night to other campers or enjoy the many activities for the kids. There is great biking right in the park and beyond. For those looking for a quieter environment, you can camp at Rollins Pond with is directly connected with Fish Creek Pond.
We had a great time in July on one of our last trips there, and met Norm and his wife Jeanne from Cornwall at Fish Creek with their newly finished tear.
We have 3 more trips planned (4 most likely). Anyone else who can make it, let us know!
