Lake Ontario Park | Informal Campsite

April 12th, 2024 by Kat12

Staying the night - I’m in the paved parking lot rather than the dirt parking lot or down by the water. I was skeptical of this spot as I usually avoid parks. As expected, there were people driving through throughout the night (Thursday). Notable around 2am a car with what I presume was a group of kids, blasting their music and partying. No officials asked me to move (so far, I’m writing this at 2am), but if you’re getting people driving through at all hours of the night it puts me a little on edge. It probably would have been quieter over in the dirt lot, but there was already another campervan in the paved lot and I decided to avoid the deserted area because I’d feel more exposed if I ran into trouble, so I stayed here. I’m sure you could stay here without issue, it just might come down to chance and personal preference! The kids haven’t paid me any attention as of now, so hopefully they keep away and leave eventually.

This is a beautiful spot, but bathroom and showers are closed Thanksgiving and Victoria day

There was no sign not to park at night, and I stayed for one night, no problem. The surrounding scenery is so beautiful.

stayed here 2 nights in a row. Very peaceful and lovely. There is a huge open grassy area where I did yoga and played fetch in the morning with my dog. There is also a tap near the washrooms to fill my water bottles. the bathroom was closed in the morning though.

As other mentioned: quiet, picnic tables, bbq areas, toilets. Didn't try the showers. Stayed one night with 3 other rvs.

Stationnement parfait pour la nuit. Les gens sont très respectueux et calme. Près de l'eau. Il y a un BBQ sur place, électricité, table à pique-nique, toilettes et douche (froide). Nous sommes resté 2 nuits et nous reviendrons assurément lors de notre prochain passage à Kingston.

tel que décrit par les autres usagers. belle place, grand stationnement, effectivement des prises électriques disponibles. vue sur l'eau. Nous restons pour la nuit avec notre Promaster. À notre arrivée un autre VR était là.

Lieu très calme avec une belle aire de jeu et des sanitaires (douches froides + WC).
De la place pour tout type de VR et nombreuses prises électriques le long des poteaux des barrières en bois. Étant autonome nous ne nous en sommes pas servi mais les autres VR ne s’en privaient pas 😁

Lieu très tranquille pour dormir. Plusieurs stationnements autour d’un immense parc. Tables à picnic et toilettes sur place. À recommander

I spent Sunday and Monday quiet nights in my RV-Trailer conversion, without any issues, but it can be a noisy place in the daytime. Monday morning was the day to cut the grass and such (very loud as off 8am), and in the evenings many scooters and staff golf carts make for a lot of motor noises, but it's a free space..!

Stayed for one night. Park employees rode by several times, no one cared.
Quiet night, no problems. We stayed on the Gravel parking lot, it was bug-free, while the adjacent “Campground” was Mosquitoe-infested.

Les indications ne sont pas clairs concernant l'accès pour la nuit. Il y aurait des frais pour le camping durant une période définit, mais après avoir demandé à un employer, ça ne semble pas être réellement respecté. Les indications quant au parking semble avoir changé, plusieurs endroits non-parking. Nous pouvons tout de même nous stationner dans les deux grands parking. Il y a bien des douches, ouverte de 8h à 21h, mais l'eau est très froide. Je ne suis pas resté pour la nuit.

As described by others. I came here after dark so missed the actual parking lot, but wasn’t a problem where I was at. The washrooms are now closed for the but a fabulous place With a great view of Lake Ontario, beautiful walks, a great place to stop

Good place to go if you want free over night on Lake Ontario @Kingston. Lots of shopping close by to stock back up.

Really quiet place!! Except for a modified muffler in the middle of the night

August 29th, 2022 by Cathetalex

Nous avons demandé a un employé s’il nous était possible de rester pour la nuit, il nous a répondu que pour une nuit seulement il n’y avait pas de problème
Douche accessible a partir de 8h superbe vue sur le lac Ontario

A fantastic trailer park in its day and still lovely, just no fees! We spoke to the park attendant on site and he explained the city shut it down but still maintains it. They pulled out the hydro and water on the east rail, but the west rail still has power. Signs say no motorized vehicles beyond the parking lot, but he explained they don't enforce that. Follow the road down the hill to some truly spectacular lakeside parking. We parked in the parking lot along with 2 other units.

Very beautiful place, we spent a nice and calm night. The showers open around 7 in the morning and are indeed closed at night. We could not find proper toilets but there are chemical ones next to the parking lot.

We stoped there for a quick Timmy's. 2 B vans were there and have spent the night with no issues. No "No overnight parking" sign, and workers on site confirmed that it was ok to spend the night.

J'y suis resté une nuit avec ma roulotte. Je l'ai laissée atachée derrière mon véhicule et je n'ai pas ouvert mes extensions. Personne n'est venu m'avertir.
Très beau on a une vue sur le bord de l'eau !! Il y a un beau parc pour enfants avec des jets d'eau juste en haut et une très belle promenade sur le bord de l'eau.

Very nice and quiet place. Everything is clean and there is playground and table pic everywhere.

Stayed 2 days! Really nice location, lots of people, hot showers near the water

This place is absolutely perfect. We parked near the boat descent and validated with the park attendant.
Beautyfull, clean, quiet, great bike path to Kingston downtown by the water. Good restaurants.

A good place to sleep for one night. It was calm.

Nice spot for a lunchtime nap under the trees

Gravel parking lot for park users, no signs prohibiting overnight stays. Spent two nights with other cars and class B rv.
Park employees doing their chores without warning us not to overnight. Quiet at night.
