This is a review for day-use only, as the park is actually closed for camping during this time of…read morethe year. There are a couple of day-use lots on the outside of the actual park for locals to use, I don't believe you can drive into the park proper to use it for day use. At the time we visited, Orillia was close to peak color, so it was a fantastic time. It was a nice day for a hike, and there were quite a few other people using the park as well -- there's a little beach area in the day use part as well as a playground and places for taking your dog on leash. We went and followed the trails in the park, there seems to be a few that can be used, one in the treeline and one along the lake. You can make a decent little loop of a couple of kilometers. There's nothing incredibly challenging about this little hike, to be honest, but the tree colors make for some gorgeous photos. I'll definitely want to come back and visit here and go camping during the season. A really lovely provincial park!

First time legitimately camping with a group of friends and away from any parents. It was an…read moreamazing time to say the least! The park doesn't have many things to do during the day for activities but that's why it's in Wasaga because everything you could want to do is less than a 10minute drive away! The washrooms and showers were okay just make sure to bring your own personal hygiene products as there wasn't even any soap in the washrooms. There was a live DJ Saturday night which unfortunately I didn't get to see but by the sounds of things was also pretty good! If you're looking to get away for a weekend and enjoy a cheap party/camping experience with friends this is definitely the place! Would have been five stars if there was running water and/or electricity at the sites...

FIrst of all, if you're not into loud, raucous parties, this place is not for you. This place is…read moreadvertised as party central, and they are not kidding. The place itself is pretty nice, very big, lots of trees and decently clean bathrooms and showers. Every site has a huge garbage can, which is emptied every morning and a fire pit. They sell firewood and ice at the front, where there is also a beach volleyball setup and basketball court. It is a 5 minute walk to a 24 hour grocery store, and the Walmart (in case you forget your tent. *cough*.) It's probably a 20 minute walk to the beach, but we drove because we didn't want to drag all our stuff there. They do everything to make sure everyone has a good time. From 9pm-12am, they have a tent set up with music and laser lights for a dance party. Let me tell you, dancing on soft sand is AWESOME! At 10pm, a car from Dominos comes, selling large pizzas at $10 each. At midnight, music has to be turned off, but most parties go on until dawn with no hassle from the Party Police. When we left, the friendly girl at the front suggested that we visit their Facebook page and tag ourselves in the pics that they took at the dance tent. Everyone who works there was friendly, which can't be easy seeing as their entire clientele is made up of drunk partiers. My only complaint has more to do with the other campers than the campsite, and has a LOT to do with the difference in ages. It's been a long time since I could party all night and wake up at 9am and party some more. Nowadays, blasting music out of my car in the morning (MORNING!) after a big booze down is too ridiculous a concept to imagine. The average person who goes there is in their early 20s, and from the Kitchener/Waterloo area, it seems. Other than the loud mornings, this was totally fine, as everyone is very laid back and just out for a nice time. I would recommend this place for anyone who wants a camping experience they will never remember!

My friends and I have been using these cottages/cabins as accommodation in Wasaga Beach for years…read more The perks: - biggest cottage sleeps up to 16 people - cheap - can rent it for just a weekend - not strict about noise - 2 minute walk to the beach/bars - full of people in their 20's - each cabin comes with a bbq - parking is included - bigger cottages come with a fully stocked kitchen (including a stove) - bathroom and shower in the bigger cottages, plus extra facilities on site The booking process is sketchy. After verbally confirming over the telephone with someone that they will reserve a cottage/cabin for you, you have to go to TD bank and put the deposit (in cash) into their account. You then write to their email address to confirm you put the deposit in their account. Once you get there and pay (cash), everyone is given a bracelet they have to wear for the duration of their stay. Extra people cost extra money. Check out is a bit early (10am I believe?) but you can often leave your car their for the day after you've checked out. If you're looking for somewhere to stay with a group of friends in Wasaga Beach, this is a great option.

The "public" parking was half full, and they let in people they recognized but not strangers. The police were nasty, very aggressive, and threatened us. When I stopped a few times on the shoulders and entered one of their members-only parking lots to let my daughter use the washroom, they sent a police trooper in a vehicle to escort us from Simcoe County. This is the first time I was afraid for my life in Canada. Worse, this is funded by our tax money to defend public property from the public.

The beach area that allows dogs is very rocky and somewhat dangerous if you're not stable in walking. Also, there is not mobile service at the park.

The parking lot is a short walk to the sandy beach. There are some rocks when entering the lake but…read morethey aren't a problem if you wear water shoes. The water is shallow and safe. In June the water is cold but your body will adapt quickly on a warm day. Power boats aren't allowed in the roped off swimming area. There are picnic tables and a general store that sells fast food and souvenirs. The bathrooms are fairly clean with flush toilets, sinks and mirrors. The park also has change rooms. They offer educational sessions for children at certain times. The only thing keeping me from giving this provincial park 5 stars is the reservation process. Once you reserve a day pass, you can't get a refund if the weather forecast changes to cold or rainy and you can't even move your reservation to another date. So your money is lost. But if you don't reserve in advance for a Saturday or Sunday in the summer, there's a chance they will be full. The website doesn't give a price for seniors. There is a discount but it's well hidden.
