A well-loved provincial park near Kenora, Ontario, with clear water for swimming and paddling, private sites, modern showers and trails of all levels. Check how far your site is from its shared power post.
Rushing River Provincial Park in northwestern Ontario is known for clear water and plenty of spots to swim, paddle, canoe or stand-up paddleboard. Campers describe private sites, good beaches and lots of wildlife.
Most reviewers found the campsites and washrooms clean, with modern, spacious showers that have warm water and enough of them to go around. There is laundry that takes loonies, water and power at sites, and garbage stations. Staff are described as friendly and helpful.
It is a strong pick for families and active campers. There is a large playground, a beach volleyball court, a theatre area, a picnic area and safe swimming areas, and hikes that range from easy to difficult with good views. Tent campers and trailer owners both come back year after year.
Some power posts are shared, and the outlet may be a long way from your pad, so bring an extension cord and levelling blocks, as level sites are a toss-up. Geese leave a lot of droppings, including around the playground. One camper found the main washrooms dirty when day-use visitors were busy, and felt they were not cleaned often enough. Dogs must be leashed.
