Outstanding.....Awesome!! Discovered this place by chance when searching for RV parks near Ottawa The scenery is beautiful The fishing is great. Once we figured out how to fish DEEP waters. Excellent bay for water sports behind a boat. And for those who canoe and kayak Clear weed free swimming. The hospitality is like family. Interesting history on how the lake and campground came to be Would stay here again in a heart beat. Planning on coming back next year.

What a wonderful place to spend some relaxing time. Beautiful lake for swimming and fishing, fantastic sunsets and a well kept property. The best of all are the owners, the Stubinsky's Anne, John and Janice and helper Dwayne who go out of their way to make you feel welcome. Congratulations Black Donald Tent and Trailer Park for a job well done.

Been there quite a few times over the years with my father and my wife. Always had a amazing experience and the memories will last a life time.The hospitality was exceptional and we are planning on returning next summer for a week or two, sadly without my father. We have so many pictures of him on the lake and each picture the scenery was breathtaking

We rented a cottage near by and stopped in a few time throughout the week for fire wood, gas for the boat and ice cream for the kids. We also ran into a little trouble on the lake and they stepped up to troll us back. Thank you for being so kind Ann and John! You are truly amazing people and we hope to come back to stay at your park in the future.

We just spent the week at Black Donald with some good friends and we loved it. Ann and her son, John, took care of us like we were family. The view is spectacular and you can fish or boat or paddle if you wish, or just spend the day on the floating dock at the diving rock. Beautiful park but the owners truly made the week special. We will visit again!

This park is very rustic the owners are amazing we loved our stay. This park is for the campers who don't mind roughing it a little, only 15 amp service and no dump station, we were still able to run air conditioning at night. The showers are very clean and there are toilets throughout the park. I do recommend going the lake and sun sets are amazing. This park is the true relaxation park. Thank you Ann and John.

Laid back but well managed. Provided very good boat rentals for fishing. Service with a smile. Online reservations. Easily accommodated a day shift in a weekly rental.

Lots of sites on the lake. Most of them with power and water but no sewer hookups. Very quiet campsite.....far from roads and highways.

Stayed here for a late September weekend. Nice park and most of the sites are on the lake and all of the sites are very wooded and rustic. Trailer sites are limited for weekenders but lots of tent sites.

Best place for rustic, woodsy camping. Sites are nice and spread out. It’s quiet and secluded. Everyone is nice. We love it here and have been going for 3years

We love this place. It's definitely a gem. We have been coming for almost 5 years. Beautiful. Anne is such a wonderful lady. Keeps everything in check. We tent camped and pulled a trailer. It was awesome either way. Great place for the guys to go fish, ladies to hike and go swimming. There are boat, kayak, canoe rentals. Or bring your boat. Call way ahead to book. It is that popular.

Many sites are very private and well shaded by white and red pines. Very friendly owners. Price is very reasonable and fire wood is really inexpensive compared to provincial parks. Beautiful lake. Good views of sunsets.

With 66 seasoal and 28 daily use sites, we are one of the best campgrounds in Ontario for site choice. Majestic White Pines shade our spacious campsites, and we offer many waterfront sites. The campground is on a 27-mile long lake that has many bays, channels, and hideaways.

Our sites are free of poison ivy and if you keep your site clean and properly store your food, you are unlikely to be bothered by raccoons or other wildlife!

We have cozy tent sites surrounded by wilderness, waterfront sites, large group sites, and sites suitable for RVs. We have a centrally located washroom and shower facility for your convenience. Each site is furnished with a picnic table, fire pit, and ready access to clean and well-maintained outhouses.

Hi, Campers.

Unfortunately, the closure of Ontario campgrounds has been extended under the Ontario Three-Step Reopening Plan, announced today.

Under this plan, campgrounds will be permitted to reopen under Step One of this plan, slated for the week of June 14th; however, according to officials, this is an APPROXIMATE date.

This is what we know so far, according to CTV News:

To enter this step, Ontario must wait at least two weeks after 60 percent of adults have received one dose of the vaccine.

According to Health Minister Christine Elliott, Ontario has reached 58 percent to date.

“It is possible we could reach the level of getting to stage one before June 14,” Elliott said. “We are just giving that as an approximate date right now.”

CTV News, May 20, 2021

Hopefully, we can reopen sooner than later and begin enjoying the summer!

We thank you for your patience and understanding.
