This is Ivy Lea Campground Unique amongst the 10 campgrounds within the Parks of the St Lawrence, in both its location and geography, Ivy Lea is a campground experience like no other. Located in the heart of the majestic Thousand Islands and at the foot of the towering Thousand Islands Bridge, this jewel of the St. Lawrence Parks system offers 146 campsites and 4 Camper Cabins set amid the granite and greenery of the Frontenac Arch Biosphere Reserve The south east corner of Ivy Lea is a camping wonder. With rocky, elevated campsites on curved roads amongst the tallest of trees, you will feel like you are in a completely different biosphere than at the entrance of the park. Prefer to have an open space where kids can play and you can park your RV? Well Ivy Lea has a section that accommodates over 50 RV serviced lots. It's a place where you get to know your neighbours and can see kids playing in the central play. Children's programming is offered throughout the summer on weekends so there is always something for the kids to do! Ivy Lea also features 4 cabins - all with a water view through the tall trees - but mainly situated in a wooded area. As Ivy Lea is a perfect location for scuba diving, the cabins have become popular dive shacks with campers.

Meet John and Cheryl-Anne This married couple from Ottawa has been camping at Riverside-Cedar for over 20 years and we thought we'd find out why they love it so much. To start, they love the quiet, open atmosphere of Cedar park on the East side of Riverside-Cedar Campground. Over the years they have made many friends with their neighbours and even have their daughter (and husband and two grand-daughters) as their immediate lot neighbours. The family is now at their fourth generation of campers, as John's parents spent their summer's in the same location. John probably said it best when he stated "As retired seniors we enjoy the quiet peaceful nature here at Riverside-Cedar." An avid boater, they also enjoy watching the big boats go by and taking out their power boat or kayaks onto the calm, clear waters from the sandy beach. Cheryl highlighted that she thinks the staff make the place what it is; "This campground is well maintained and Ernie and Kent do a great job and are very professional." She continued "It's a very family-oriented campground with lots of things for the grandchildren to do. Our grandchildren are growing up here." Although they have upgraded their camper to a 40-foot park model "cottage on wheels", the location of their lot hasn't changed much in 23 years. "It's like a staycation all summer long." Says John, who also hosts a large Thanksgiving weekend celebration with extended family to mark the end of each season. If you're ever taking a stroll on the quiet gravel roads of Riverside-Cedar, be sure to wave or stop in and say hello to these wonderful seasonal campers.

This weekend at Woodlands Campground! http://www.cornwalltourism.com/dog-show-returns-long-sault-parkway/

This is The Upper Canada Migratory Bird Sanctuary Campground Primarily known for the Bird Sanctuary itself, with walking trails and habitat for hundreds of bird species, there are two campgrounds that are part of the 400 acres sanctuary. Nairne island is the largest of the two campgrounds, which are both located on islands jetting into the St Lawrence river south of the bird sanctuary. They are also the two of the smallest campgrounds within the Parks of The St Lawrence. Nairne Island features the luxurious Robin's Roost Treehouse, with its private beach, 2 bedrooms, private bathroom, upper deck and gorgeous view. Robin's Roost is a unique camping adventure on its own and is booked throughout most of the summer. Best to reach out when camping reservations open in February to book your stay here! There are also two cabins facing the south and located right near Nairne Islands' fantastic quiet beach. A hidden gem of a sandy beach with shallow waters. It is the perfect place to bring young children and let them splash in the water or build moated sandcastles. With some secret paths, gravel road causeways and rocky outlets, there is also some great fishing locations at Nairne Island. In fact, you will often pass a few anglers on your way into the campground. The small, quiet campground is a great place for tent camping, RVs or trailers alike.
