Camping Nicolet River

What visitors say

Camping Nicolet River sits along the Nicolet River in Wotton, in the Eastern Townships, and it's built around families. Reviewers describe a lively, calm-enough campground with sites for tents and RVs, ready-to-camp chalets and cabins, and a river that one visitor found clear and clean.

Kids are well looked after. There's a pool, a wading pool, an inflatable playground and trampoline, a bouncy castle, foam parties, a bubble machine, fun bikes to rent and farm animals by the entrance that children can feed in the morning. Tubing and kayaking on the river are affordable add-ons, though one family found the river too low in midsummer and kept hitting rocks. Staff are called friendly by many, though one reviewer found the front desk curt.

Anglers can fish the stocked pond, but one visitor suggested the river early in the morning was a better bet. Opinions on the cabins vary: some found them clean and heated, others found them basic for the price, without hot water or bedding, and with strict cleaning rules on departure.

The common complaints are cost and washrooms. Several guests felt prices were high and that nearly everything costs extra. Showers are coin-operated and were found dated, crowded or without hot water by a few visitors. Day camps bring large groups of children, and one family was plagued by black flies and deer flies. Pack bedding if renting a cabin, bring bug protection and budget for extras.
