Snake Campground is one of the campgrounds in Awenda Provincial Park on Georgian Bay, set deep in thick forest. Reviewers keep mentioning how big and well spaced the sites are: many say they could barely see or hear neighbours, and the tree canopy keeps things shaded and cool.
It's run as a quiet zone: no radios, no generators, no electrical sites and no pets. Campers who choose it for peace love that, while one visitor was caught out by the pet-free rule on arrival. Washrooms and showers are generally clean and well kept, with a dryer on site, though a few have found shower temperatures erratic, and one recalled a long power cut in the washrooms.
Awenda's beaches are a big part of the draw, with clear water and good sunsets, but from Snake they're a short drive rather than a walk. The park has plenty of trails, and a bike is handy for getting around. There's no playground at Snake itself; the nearest is at the neighbouring Wolf campground.
Bugs and critters are the main complaint. A recent family left in the night because of ticks and raccoons, and one camper found caterpillars everywhere, so use tick protection and store food carefully. A few sites are less private than others, so check the map and site photos when booking.
