Your seasonal fee covers your campsite for the full season (Victoria Day to Thanksgiving) and includes you, your spouse, and your kids under 18. If you’d like to have additional family or friends visit regularly, they can purchase visitor passes at the store.

To secure your site each year, a $500 deposit is due by April 15, and the remaining balance is due by opening weekend. Gate passes won’t be activated until your account is fully paid, so it’s best to get everything settled early.

Seasonal sites are meant to be enjoyed! If a site isn’t opened and actively used (for example, cleaned up and set up by June 1), it may be considered inactive and could be revoked.

Each site is set up for:

• one trailer
• one small shed
• one small deck

We keep things simple to maintain the natural feel of the park – no extra structures or large storage items are permitted. 

We understand that there are a number of campsites that have been in the park for a very long time that have more than one trailer, shed and/or deck, and that may also have an addition. Our intention is to slowly transition all campsites back to simple set-ups, with no additions/trailer covers and no extra items on their campsites. As such, we are asking that campsites begin the removal of extra sheds and/or trailers from their sites.

Existing additions need to be maintained to the park’s property standards, and as they age, if they no longer meet the property standards than they will be asked to be removed from the park. 

You’re welcome to use a tent while you’re staying at your site, but it does need to come down when you’re not there.

Yes, keeping your site neat and tidy is part of seasonal camping. If grass isn’t cut or items start piling up, staff may step in and charges could apply.

Yes, but trailers must always remain movable. That means keeping tires on and your hitch in working order so it can be removed easily if needed or when your seasonal camping ends at the park.

If a deck is built at the front of your trailer, the trailer hitch and wheels must remain accessible so that the trailer can be easily moved. 

Absolutely, just check in with park management first.

Trailers coming into the park must be 10-years old or newer and must be approved before coming into the park.

No, trailers can not be sold on site.

All trailers 10-years old or older must be removed from the park when you decide to end your time as a seasonal camper. Sheds, decks and other items must also be removed at the same time, unless just the trailer is being replaced by you with a newer trailer. 

If your trailer is newer than 10-years old at the time of sale, it may be possible for the new owner to apply for a seasonal camping site at the park. However, a campsite is not guaranteed, and seasonal campsites are not always available. Further details may be discussed with park staff. 

When you decide to move on from having a seasonal campsite, everything on your site (trailer, deck, shed, addition etc.) must be removed at the owner’s expense. Think of it as leaving a clean slate for the next camper.

Yes, however they are required to meet park’s standard including:

• They can not exceed the length and width of your trailer (not including any additions). 
• They must be constructed of new materials only

Remember that no decks are permanent and they must be removed when your trailer is removed from the park. 

Any decks that are in poor condition may be asked to be repairs or removed at the owner’s expense. 

Yes, you are welcome to put 1 shed up on your site to store your outdoor items. The shed must new or constructed using new materials only. 

• Maximum size: 8 ft x 6 ft 

The shed must be maintained and any sheds that are in poor condition and don’t meet the park’s property standards will be asked to be removed at the owner’s expense. 

Sites currently with more than 1 shed will be asked to transition back to only having 1 shed by the end of the 2026 season. 

Please keep in mind that when you decide to end your seasonal camping time at the park, the shed must also be removed. 

Existing additions are charged an annual fee. No new additions are allowed, and existing additions can not be added on to. 

All additions must be well maintained and meet the park’s property standards. Any additions that do not meet the park’s property standards will be asked to be removed at the owner’s expense. 

• Please note that all additions will be phased out of the park. 

Absolutely no construction projects are permitted without approval from the park staff. 

Please keep in mind that all existing additions are the responsibility of the existing owner, including any costs associated with their removal. 

Of course! We just ask that all visitors stop at the store to register and purchase a Day or Overnight Pass when they arrive. You’re responsible for your guests, so it’s always a good idea to remind them.

• Yes, each site can have one registered dog.
• Dogs must always be leashed, friendly, and cleaned up after.
• They’re not allowed in common areas like the beach or playground.

No, the use of animal traps and/or any chemicals/poisons for animal control on or around your campsite is not permitted.

Please take precautions in your camping trailers and sheds to reduce the opportunities for any mice or small animals from entering. Wire mesh and spray foam are great to help plug any holes or openings you may have, and there are many creative ways to deter mice from your trailers.

Animal traps outside of your trailer and chemical poisons anywhere on your campsite are dangerous to people, children and other animals in the park and are strictly prohibited. 

No – to protect the forest, outside firewood isn’t allowed. Firewood is available for purchase at the store, and we’re happy to arrange delivery to your site.

Campfires should always be attended and fully extinguished before you leave your site. Safety is a top priority – there’s zero tolerance for unattended fires.

Generators are limited to 9am–12pm and 5pm–8pm, and only for charging batteries. We want to keep things peaceful for everyone.

Please consider replacing very noisy generators and exploring other options, including inverter generators and/or solar panels. 

Yes, please turn off  heaters and air conditioners when you leave. Also, large outdoor appliances (like extra fridges or freezers) aren’t permitted.

Right now there are no fees associated with sites that have larger appliances. However, if there are continued use of them, additional fees will apply.

All garbage should be bagged and placed in the dumpster near the store. We can only accept regular household garbage, larger items should be taken home.

Note: Large items include steel, mattresses, furniture etc. All of these items must be taken home to dispose of and can not be placed in the dumpster. 

The details on what can be recycled in our township can be found on Lanark Highlands website

The dock is for short-term use only (launching and loading). When you’re not using your boat, it should be stored back at your site. 

Yes, the following rules apply:

Alcohol – Are not permitted off of your registered campsite

Tobacco & cannabis – Are not permitted in the following locations:

• Sporting areas and designated swimming areas, including:
  • the beach
  • beach volleyball areas
  • boat launch and 20m surrounding them all
• Play structure area, including 20m surrounding it
• Under any shelter with a roof

Lit cigarette (or similar item) – Are not permitted on any nature trails

Quiet time starts at 11:00 pm until 9am. We want everyone to enjoy a relaxing experience, so please be mindful of your neighbours.

No, anyone under 18 must be supervised by a parent or guardian and can’t stay overnight alone. They must also be back on their parent’s campsite by 11pm.
