as was said already. very busy with youth gone wild. almost seems like there trying to push us out . Also there is a sign that says no caming. not sure why noone else has said this. i will post of it. this same sign is in all 3 locations in Collingwood.this one is pic was taken at Millennium park.
Report Check-InStayed a night, picnic table along the entrance road and a nice shady spot where we setup. Was quiet all night. Heads up, it is next to the water treatment plant so depending on the direction of the wind there can be some odours. We only noticed it once and it wasn’t terrible.
Nobody bothered us all night. None of the noisy kids materialized either, nor the ducks!
There is a porta-potty at the far end of the parking lot now as well for those without bathrooms onboard.
Report Check-InStayed 2 nights here, heaps of space for larger rigs. Busy with people launching boats & kayaks. A little noisy at night with the water treatment plant behind. No garbage cans or toilets.
Report Check-InAs described. Great location with lots of space and relatively quiet at night, compared to the place across the harbour behind the silos. Spent a few days in Collingwood, usually overnighted here because other place was so noisy at night (kids and cars). This place is noisier in the morning, with very noisy ducks (not kidding, when they all start quacking at once, it’s surprisingly loud!) and people walking and cycling by on the trail in the morning, so pick your poison! Cars and loud youth at night behind the silos, or ducks and people in the mornings here :) There was a well-serviced porta potty here as well, and tiny beach area for sitting next to water.
Report Check-InHuge parking lot for the municipal boat ramp.
be prepared for a lot of activity in the morning in summer when the weather for boating is good.
The lot is right adjacent to the town's sewage treatment plant! As long as the wind is from any direction other than east, you're good.
Very large gravel lot beside the boardwalk. Several people staying overnight. We had a restful night listening to the waves crashing onto the shore.
Report Check-InAn amazing spot, quiet with a few rv sleeping there too. There are a lot of ducks!
