Presqu'ile Provincial Park

Went for water fowl weekend. Unfortunately it was so cold so didn't see too much out there but still had a good time. Bev at the light house was full of info and very helpful! The friends of the park have done a great job! Beautiful scenery and cute little gift shop. Some trails obviously closed for winter.2023 - Went again in May for the warbler weekend! Nice relaxing and helpful tour at the point with Christine! She was great.BBQ was set up fir lunch. Also at the park store, we got to experience watching a few birds getting banded. Great info there by the volunteers. And as always- fellow bird nerds are some of the friendliest humans!

One of the best sandy beach I have seen with good range of tides so you can enjoy your floats. Level of water os not dip for a long distance so you can also enjoy with your children. Must visit beach

Great campgrounds!! We had amazing site that went down to the beach, the beach by the campgrounds can be a tad bit rocky but the main beach is long and sandy. You also can walk out for a bit before it drops off, beautiful lighthouse, marsh boardwalk and foodstand outside of the park at entrence. This place really had alot to offer. You enjoy sandbanks you would enjoy hereFor extra bonus you can rent e-scooters at the foodstand outside of the entrance of the park for a great price. Which gives you a unique opportunity to explore the park, highly recommend

DO NOT BOOK SITE #57 in High Bluff. It is one of the worst sites, zero privacy, people drive by so fast that your RV or tent will be full of dirt n dust, may be because there is no 20km speed limit signs nearby. You may have a lake view at Site 57 if you can see through dust created by inconsiderate campers, but it is at the mercy of parks officer as they love to block that view by parking their truck at staff access to the Lake. I may not return to Presqu'ile again, at least not anywhere close to the High Bluff campsite. Other campsites have better environments and better sites, especially Pines Campsite. Not all sites on the highbluff have lake access. There is a drop before you get to the lake. Only 4 or 5 sites there have a lake access. Park Store is mostly closed at times and any other park stores they may have. Garbage disposal is ample, always clean, and tidy. Bathrooms are good, maintained, BUT can not regulate water heat, I almost burn myself as I like Luke warm water for shower. Sites have a lot of mud or super saturated sites, so be mindful of that. In my view, site #57 SHOULD be converted into a parking lot because most guests will illegally park their vehicles right across the site to access the trail and the beach, therefore might as well do that to help people. Public boat launch is on the other side of the campsite, about 8kms round trip on water to get to campsite side, which is lake Ontario. We, however, had a small 80 lbs tin Boat with a 5hp small motor and an electric troller motor so we carried across the road to the lake and launched, as long as one can carry it and no trailer attached is fine to launch into the waterbody especially lake Ontario. A few beautiful trails this park offers were awesome. We loved the preserved islands as bird sanctuaries and thanks to staff and friends of the park who maintain that tirelessly. The park must place an officer on the check point #2. The worst experience apart from the Site#57, was the Potable Water and Dumpsite. First, the staff failed to advise if they even had potable water stations, as she said only taps to fill water into the RV. We happened to find the site, but it was full of people leaving and arriving at the same site and only two lanes. Why can't the park keep both traffic separate? It is beyond my understanding. RV haulers watch for speed bumps, and they may get you off guard. Raccoons will definitely pay your campsite a visit. They're all over the place, cute but annoying. Brighton town roads are bad, potholes, and very narrow. Overall, it was an annoying experience compared to Killbear or Algonquin parks. However, we were closer to nature, birds, Lake Ontario, habitat, and, of course, the sandbanks, so we tried to ignore other issues and enjoyed as much as we could. Remember not to book Site #57 in High Bluff campsite; believe me you will thank me.

Love Presqu'ile Provincial Park for both camping and day use. We typically camp in High Bluffs to enjoy the waterfront sites and sunset views. Plenty of trails (shorter in length) and great spot for families and dogs. Bathroom/shower facilities are always clean.

The campground is quiet and peaceful with numerous of birds and squirrels. Sometimes turtles crossed the park road as well. The comfort station is always kept clean. There are some short trails to explore while visiting here. However the beaches are not well maintained. Sandbank is much better!

Great views on our site! It was extremely hot but the breeze off the water helped keep us nice and cool. Sites are moderate in size while being semi private but for the views you sacrifice a little in that department. The beach is MASSIVE and we had it all to ourselves early in the morning. Nice and sandy for the kids to play in. The more private beaches off the campsites are all rock. Not really the best for kids unless you bring water shoes with you. The park staff was friendly as always. We plan to return in future years.Note: comfort station wasn't very well maintained but it's camping so I don't typically expect much.

Overall a pretty decent provincial park. Rather marshy grounds but nice long waterfront area. Comfort station and outhouses are clean. Main beach is not dog friendly and Beach 2 was closed. Late May is a good time to spot Trilliums.

Wonderful park. Out of all the provincial parks we went we keep visiting this park more often. Great beaches and the ability to park your car right in front of the beach. Dog friendly beaches available. Make sure you keep your dog on a leash on the trails.

It's a nice place to visit. Lots of over ight camping spots, near the lighthouse there are lots of available same day picnicking spots. Lots of places to take pictures, there are plenty of bike trails, and hiking trails, there is a wonderful.boardwalk to get a glimpse of the local waterfowl and the amphibious wildlife. Please do not little, and hold onto all or any of your recyclables. Leave the park the way you came in. Respect nature. Enjoy the scenery!
