Looking for a Campground for 1 Week

[MCTFisher9120]

For the last week of August my grandparents and I are going camping and fishing for a week. We have one problem, we don't know where to go. We want to go North/North East of Oshawa and are not wanting to travel much more than a 3 hours(by car). Also we do not want to go to any Provinical Parks.

 

So if there are any suggestions of any good privately owned campgrounds that you know of(must have good bass fishing) can you tell me. Include a site if available.

 

Thanks in advance

Mike

Well, I know you said no provincial parks, but I always liked Silent Lake provincial park. No cottages or motorboats on lake. Good bass fishing

Limerick Lake is a very good bass lake and is within your driving range.

These guys are a good outfit and have nice private campsites: http://www.limericklodge.com/index.html

 

That immediate area has the highest concentration of quality bass waters in southern Ontario. Steenburg and Mephisto lakes are just a couple more that pop to mind...

 

Cheers

Yes mephisto lake has many camp sites but only boat access, lake is mostly crown land, and has some monster bass.you can access this lake through limerick lake or follow gunter lake road to the end ,but you will require a truck.

Just spent the weekend at Depot Lakes Conservation area. Depot Lakes They have a mainland campground and another 20 boat/canoe access sites. Pretty nice place with 3 lakes and good bass fishing and pike and walleye as well. Only got in about an hour of fishing since we were up that way looking at some properties, but I got a few small sm bass and one sm that tipped the scales at 2.5 lbs not bad for not knowing the lake.

 

You could also try out this place Pineridge Resort I've been going there since I was a kid and both my personal best large and small mouth are from that lakeas well as cottages they also have a campground. I'll be up there the last week of August with the family.

hi, i usually decide on a lake that i know has a good rep then use this site to find a campsite close to it....i'm sure there are other websites too if u do a search.

Samuel Champlain Provincial Park .Mattawa Ontario

Panorama Camp on the northwest bay of Nipissing. This is a large shallow bay(6'-8') & is mostly bass and pike fishing. Weedy creek channels produce best.

You could check out Beavermead Park in Peterborough, do a Google search for more info but could start with this one:
