A family RV park and campground on Lake Erie at Port Maitland, Ontario, with a heated salt-water pool, good fishing and weekend activities. Its water slide has been closed, which caught some visitors out.
This Lake Erie campground, which reviewers call Maitland Shores, sits on the lakeshore at Port Maitland, and the water is a big part of its appeal. Seasonal campers describe a strong community feel, friendly neighbours and a park that feels clean, quiet and safe. Some areas are pretty and treed, while others feel more like camping in an open field.
Management and staff get mostly good reviews for being friendly and responsive, and hookups, laundry and washrooms are described as working well and clean by several guests. There's a heated salt-water pool, with another pool under construction according to a recent seasonal camper. Google lists a boat ramp and marina as well.
Families have plenty to do: a playground, a sand volleyball court, an ATV track, weekend hayrides, DJs and bands, and fireworks over the water on holiday weekends. Anglers are keen on the fishing here. It's especially popular with seasonal RVers, retirees and families, and very dog-friendly.
The water slide is the sore point. It was shut down for safety reasons in summer 2024, and at least two families who booked partly for it left unhappy, one reporting a long refund dispute. Another short-stay camper had a billing disagreement over extra tents and complained of a cloudy pool, dirty washrooms and dust from speeding ATVs. Confirm what's open and any extra-tent fees before you book, and get the details in writing.
