Comfy…read moreclean beds, satellite TV, and extras such as body wash or toothpaste.. those types of things are all here for you. In addition, the cottage was very clean. I've been fishing lake nipissong for 30 years and this is the first cottage that left a wonderful note and a nice welcoming package of wine and charcuterie! The fishing - friday through Sunday me and my son booted apx 60 walleye and 90% were very close to greening bay itself. Its all jig heads and worm harnesses if you come here, nothing else needed. I was shocked as we had hot sun, no wind or clouds and still managed to do well. The boats - we had a perfect size boat of 17 feet with a 3hp tiller. The boat came with a fish finder, working live well and all the safety equipment. They have a great beach for kids as well. The owner, Tara made our trip just that much more extra special (as it was me and my son for father's day). Tara was always available for fishing tips or to check in and see about your stay. Thank you so much for all your help this weekend Tara, we had a lot of fun.

This is a wonderful park! We had the greatest site ... a walk in, with it's own little access to…read morethe waterfront. We were conveniently located, right beside the Dog Beach (we have two dogs who need to run and swim). The dogs had a great time doing doggy things: swimming, running and playing with new dog friends. Sadly, for the people, the swim wasn't quite as satisfactory, as it was quite shallow water, and we couldn't get a really good open-water swim. Then, we found a new possibility. We drove to the start of the Ranger's Trail, followed it, then cut down a path toward the lake to find a magnificent open water swim !location. Clear, calm water, and you can lounge on the rocks and swim in from them. The water gets deep very fast, so be careful! My walk-in site had the most amazing toilet. OK I don`t usually write toilet reviews, but this Clivus was something to behold. The port-a-let cubicle was clean and well ventilated. The ventilation was something that surprised me, as I'd never seen a ventilated vault toilet before. It was such a great toilet: no smells at all. The staff came and cleaned it three times a day. OK, on to the landscape, which is beautiful: rolling hills, mixed forest, Canadian shield. There are so many lakes 8in this area that, I am told, the kayaking is very good. I may not do kayaking, but I do love stargazing. We were lucky to be at Restoule on August 12, when the annual meteor showers arrive. It was also my daughter's birthday. We took a blanket and pillows down to the waterfront and looked at the stars, which appeared so much larger than they do in the GTA. Our goal was to see 12 shooting stars. Within 45 minutes, we had our targeted quota and more! It's a lovely little park, and if you like an electric site, their electric sites are relatively private and spacious. I found the staff quite friendly, but I did not have cause to interact with them very often. It is also close to nearby towns, in case you forgot something (I recommend Gerry's General Store in Restoule)

Restoule Provincial Park is located north of Algonquin Provincial Park along Hwy 534. The closest…read moretown is Township of Restoule which is just a few blocks (only one restaurant in the whole town). The closest large town is Town of Port Loring. I want to review it because it is a great park but is almost a best kept secret to Torontonians, though people living in up north frequent there. The park has 3 campgrounds, two are non-electrical (Putts Point, Bells Point) and one is electrical (Kettle Point). The campsites in Putts Point and Kettle Point campgrounds are in good condition. The sites in Kettle Point seem smaller than Putt Point's, where I stayed. I estimate that an average sized campsite in Putt Point is a large campsite in Kettle Point. However, Kettle Point is more popular and the sites get booked faster, because there are a lot of RV and trailers campers. I don't like the sites at Bells Point campground. There is a comfort centre in Kettle Point and another one in Putts Point. There is no comfort centre in Bells Point. They are both in good condition. The shower water is hotter in the morning and afternoon. It becomes lukewarm in the evening. The park has access to both Stormy Lake and Lake of Restoule. The water is really clear. Both lakes have boat launch ramps. During my long weekend stay, I saw people playing motor boating, water skiing, sea-doo, fishing, sailing (only in Stormy Lake), canoeing and kayaking. The park office gives out a water way map that shows the good fishing spots. I didn't see many swimmers, probably because the water is quite shallow in the beach areas. There is also a separate dog beach. Hiking and wildlife sighting are good as well. I saw a deer up close on the Angel Point Trail (took pictures too). The best and longest trail is Fire Tower Trail. It has a spectacular lookout point overseeing Stormy Lake. This park is honestly beautiful. The water is clear; the air is clean. It is so natural and unspoiled. Star gazing is lovely on the boat launch docks, so bring your telescope. There are additional reviews on this park on Tripadvisors, should you want more details.

The 2nd pool is 1-3 feet deep and you can get in two ways. 1st is the stairs which are three steps or 2nd is the hill like the one at the North Bay mall. The pool has 3 Sprinkler things that shot out water and another one that is like a upside down sprinkler. I recommend this pool for kids that are learning to swim and kids aged 4-9. Now I guess that you can swim under water but there probably still pee in it. The 3rd pool is 3-5 deep and drops off to 9 feet. You can get in 2 ways. 1st a ladder at the deep end and 2nd a hill like the one at North Bay mall. There are a bit of pool toys which are a boat that can fit three people and Floaties 2 big ones and the rest are small. If you like swimming under water and jumping in to pools do all of that in the deep end but children 10 and Younger have to take a swim test which involves you to swim across the pool, Jump in the deep end and get out on your own and tread water for 30 sec. I recommend c children 7-10 swim in the shallow end of the pool and children, teens and adults 10-and older swim in this pool. The 4th pool is a hot tub and has a sallow end 3-4 feet and a deep end 4-6 feet and you can get in it two way. 1st is the stairs which is fore steps and a hill again like the one at the North Bay mall I recommend children, teens and adults 6-and older swim in this pool.

It created a very unprofessional and awkward experience. All in all I would not be going back to this place again. There are plenty of other renters out on Lake Nippissing to tolerate this level of unprofessional conduct. Vacations are for relaxing and enjoying time with family and friends not paying to listen to griping and whining.
