Any year round in Ontario

[bugselda]

I am new to the forum and so far I have only been tenting. We are considering buying a small travel trailer. We love to fish year round and would like to find a park on water that we could have a year round site so we could go to our trailer summer and winter. We do not want a park model though because we also want to do a cross Canada trip before settling in. Are there year round places in Northern or Eastern Ontario? I have only been able to find a couple provincial parks for day use and anything else I Google say's seasonal once I get into the site. Any help would be appreciated.

I guess that kind of depends on what you consider to be ‘Northern’ Ontario.

As a pilot ‘northern’ Ontario is definitely NOT Muskoka / Halliburton cottage country. To me Northern Ontario is the same distance north of Toronto as Pensacola Florida is south. About 1,000 miles.

I agree. I prefer North of Huntsville. Been to Wawa a couple times and was married North of Nipigon. I would like to be within an hr of Pemrboke or Sudbury so we could go weekends while working. Every place seems to just be a place to camp not set up year round. I wanted to fish summer and winter. I would just get a property on a lake but towns do not seem to allow your rv for more than 6 weeks.

A few Ontario Provincial Parks are open year round.
You can go on their reservation system and find out which ones.

I found 3 parks currently open for RVs:
Mew Lake at Algonquin Park,
And on Lake Huron: McGregorPoint, Pinery

But I guess you know you'll be camping in sub-zero weather, with all the issues with that. And none of these sites will have water or dump stations available. But I think electricity should be.

You don't have to go too far north in Ontario before winter get really, REALLY cold and lots of snow !

Valens operated by Hamilton Conservation Area might work for you if it is not too far. I believe they have camping every month but December (some law prevents 12 months camping). It is situated on a small lake.
Valens is south of Cambridge.

Can't guarantee fishing at any of them, but if they're close to lakes, they might have what you want.

Did a quick search for you.
Supposedly open all year in Ontario.
