Mac Johnson Wildlife Area

Reviewed By 1000islandsdude - Gananoque, Canada

I used to walk my dog here all the time and she loved the trails and the hike through the woods. A great walk and something special to share with you lab on weekend mornings. The center does great work and is worth supporting!

Charleston Lake Provincial Park

Reviewed By Melissa976 - Oakville, Canada

Our first time at this park and we really enjoyed it. Stayed in Meadowlands with a 36' RV and there were quite a few large electrical sites with trees/privacy. Right across the road from the visitor's center and a couple hikes. No cell service at the campground but we were able to get a weak signal at the beach. Beach was 1km+ down the road so had to drive, next time we'll try for the campground that's closer. There were lots of hikes to choose from with various levels of difficulty. We really enjoyed the Sandstone Island hike (including 9 year old and teenager), it had interesting rock formations and you can download the trail guide on your phone to follow along at the posts. There was a large boat ramp and 2 docks at the very end of the park, past Sandstone Island trail. We found it by accident but it was perfect for the boys to throw in their fishing rods for an hour or two. Disappointed that canoe and kayak rentals were closed due to covid - we've been to many other Parks this year and have been able to rent kayaks ... so not sure why this park was any different? Would have been great to explore the lake in a kayak, it was huge and seemed beautiful from the beach.

The Landon Bay Centre

Reviewed By formathe - Orillia, Canada

Needs more parking maybe. Mostly you need to park on grass. Not the safest with red hot catalytic converters sitting on dry grass. Great trails.

A very short walk from the parking lot rewards you with a beautiful view of Westport and Upper Rideau Lake. As I grew up in the area it is a place I have returned to numerous times with friends and family.

My family has a gorgeous experience at the Joel Stone Heritage Park. It was extremely pleasant to walk around the park and absorb the natural surroundings. Would certainly very highly recommend visiting same to any traveler, especially in the evening during summer.

St. Lawrence Park

Reviewed By LiseB244 - Brockville, Canada

Last weekend was crazy in Brockville, Ribfest, the Grand Re-Opening of Canada's First Train Tunnel and the World's Largest Rubber Duck, so we grabbed some lunch and headed to St-Lawrence Park, because they have lots of picnic tables, free access and beautiful patios we can use. Surprisingly the place was pretty quiet which was the perfect place to go. Great breeze from the St-Lawrence River, accessible for swimming and watching the boats and Lakers go by. Also a camp site for those seeking a nice spot, bring the kids and enjoy a relaxing weekend.

Rock Dunder

Reviewed By sheri691 - Prescott, Canada

This was a great hike, trails were very clearly marked. We arrived at 7am on a Saturday morning to an empty parking lot. When we finished the hike by 9:30am, the lot was full. I suggest arriving early and paying the $10 parking fee online. The view is amazing and the autumn colours are exceptional.
