Lake on the Mountain Provincial Park is a Provincial park located in Prince Edward County. The park…read morehas an area of 104 hectares. Other than a viewing platform, parking area, and an illustrated sign explaining the physical structure of the eponymous lake, there are no facilities in the park aside from washrooms. It is worth a quick stop as you have a good view of the two Lakes. The water is really clear and calm and people even go for a quick dip. There are some picnic tables for a quick meal.

On one side of the road you have a lake that formed on top of a "mountain". Clear, undisturbed,…read moreserene with plaques describing its formation. On the other side of the road is a magnificent view out over the Reach where you can watch the ferry take its load from on side to the other. Especially beautiful in the fall. The restaurant is a separate thing.

Park is nice, but has signs of overuse. Washrooms are kept…read moreclean. Some people abuse the facilities. I watched a guy come use the restroom, wash his hands and leave not turning the tap off. BEWARE... there is one spot in the park to get potable water, with no signage to tell you so....until you get to the campground and have to turn around go back on the highway to fill, and especially to dump your waste water.AND at the dump station there are only two dumps! We are waiting in a long lineup to dump and some people are very slow at going thru the process. I'm not amazed at any of this as it is run by the government. This is Ontarios premier park and not run very premier ....

Visited this summer 50$ for 2 was a ridicules price. I love visiting caves and I visited many caves…read morein different countries and I expected more for my dollar. In addition the young girl that guided us in the cave seemed very in a hurry to end her days. She mentioned that she was tired not to talk loud in the cave has she had a headache. For me 15 each would be a good price don't waste your money. Look at the pictures and its about what you will see

Came here on a rainy Monday morning and it was surprisingly busy! We bought our tickets and had to…read morewait a little bit before our tour started so we went across the street to the waterfall which was lovely. Don't miss this! The tour starts with a briefing about the fossils found in the area and then descends into the cave. My favourite part about the tour was the story about how the cave was discovered. Our tour guide was excellent. The group felt a little bit big for the small area to stand in but I understand they are trying to be efficient and keep people getting through. The tour ends with a short trail land chance to further explore the area.

I know I gave it a low review, this doesn't mean that the place is beautiful. There is a very nice…read morebeach there, you can kayak, fish and swim. There is a short (very short) trail there for stretching your bones and you can also use your pass to go to Sharbot lake (the nearby park) BUT and this is why I ranked it very low: The main purpose of this park is as a campground and here it fails completely. The plots are very close to one another so if you have neighbors you feel like their tent is pitched touching yours. During holidays its a nightmare. They allow dogs which is amazing (I have one) but be prepared to listen to several barks during the night (since there is no privacy). The worst thing is that you go camping to feel nature...well in this campground there is a highway right outside the campgrounds so all during the night we heard trucks and cars...fun.

BOTTOM LINE: Worth the trek for both the hike and "teachings"…read more What can I add that hasn't already been said? It's been a few years since Yelpers have reviewed this provincial park, but I can say, it seems like it's as good as its ever been. Of note, after you turn into the "entrance" of the park, it's still a good 2-3 km drive on narrow dirt/gravel roads before you enter the actual parking area. The staff were extremely friendly and knowledgeable of the petroglyphs and were very patient/enthused about answering questions about their history and interpretations. The petroglyphs themselves are housed in a nearly 40-year old structure that protects it from degradation from the elements (because acid rain and limestone don't mix) and humans (because in the 70s, people use to picnic and party on them). There are 3 trails in the area, and I'd recommend some good hiking shoes because there are good sections of elevation and rocks. The Nanabush Trail seems to be the "Goldilocks" of the them - not too long, not too short, but just right.

This site was hyped WAY more than what we got from it. For full hookups, there is only one loop…read more(Loop F) for them and they do not support larger trailers/5th wheels. The sites on this loop have a max length of 40' back-in, but when we drove them, there is absolutely no way that there were more than 2 spots that would have accommodated this and it wouldn't have been an easy fit unless you're very experienced with backing in a camper/5th wheel. The sites were extremely close together as well, with no mature trees, and not real parking for cars. Also, we noticed a trend of cars taking up extra spots and many cars for one site spilling over into others sites. We stayed in H10 and he sites were much more spacious. There were no mature trees around the campsite at all, but plenty of room for our kids to roam and play. The sites are electric only with water pump stations around. Luckily, we were situated in a spot that we could run hose to the spigot for water. We would suggest having an extra 100-150' of hose if you're planning to stay here. There is a cute park right on this loop for the kids to play at. The dump stations had very low water pressure making it difficult to flush the black tank. Additionally, they only had 3 spots for dump which meant there is a wait and it kind of sucked in the rain. We did see a lot of wildlife which was fun for the kids (and man). It was fairly quiet even though our loop was completely full. The scenery is beautiful. The river is gorgeous and fishing was fun. It was harder to find a spot to fish from - you cannot fish from the piers which is very inconvenient with little kids to navigate wet rocks and risk a fall. They have a few very nice boating docks to launch from. The store has very minimal supplies - be ready to make sure you don't need anything, or you'll have to pay the toll to get across the bridge to get to the grocery store. There are no grocery stores on the island. There is no gas stations on the island currently and there is one being remodelled. Hopefully, it'll be ready next year. It was a nice stay, but it was not as epic as we had hoped to be (and it had been hyped to be). It really isn't our go to for the future.

The place is a gorgeous place!!! The spots get reserved fast…read more Some spots have cellular services for Canada and USA. Keep in your mind when you come up to the park for camping. It is easy to find the place and some sites have some leaves or branches covered which is you need to look carefully. I gave this park 5 stars for amazing nature and location. 4 stars for bathroom because limited showers per bathroom sites even though we have a lot of sites. They have washing station next to the bathroom sites which are great and get 5 stars for this! We all need some place to wash our stuff from cooking. 5 stars for grill station that they are in great condition which is I did not expect that! Bring a lot of bug sprays because they have more insects that you don't see that often in area where you normally live. Overall staying there for camping is a wonderful place and definitely family friendly!!
