Camping is a favourite activity enjoyed by residents and visitors alike. Immerse yourself in the great outdoors, get away from civilization, and enjoy nature on a relaxing trip. From full service lakefront campsites to backcountry campsites, the region boasts a large number of camping facilities to suit any outdoor enthusiast. There are 12 campgrounds in the area with over 900 sites to serve a diverse range of campers. Choose lake-front lots with prime viewing for dramatic summer sunsets or, if you are an early bird, sunrises. For the more adventurous, choose a site close to the plethora of trail systems that run throughout the area.
Campground sites range from full service, powered, and unpowered, with options for tenting, campers, and RVs. For families looking to have the convenience and lifestyle of an annual site, there are long-term rentals available—a great way for families to make the most of summer without having to pack up every weekend. There are also cabins rentals and various B&B’s in the region for those looking for a retreat without the tent or camper.
