I had a fantastic time every day I came here, it wasn't busy as its end of summer so right up my alley. On the side of the beach there's more privacy and less people that's where we hung out for the days we were there. The beach is rocky but not all parts it's not bad enough that you need water shoes so don't worry. For kids at 4 pm there's story time which seems to be a big hit! Friendly staff at the booth I had a young man named William who rented us a 2 person kayak which I've never been in before I loved it ! The lake is so pure so fresh and just really relaxing.

In the end I was ok, with minor concussion and lesions but that was the scariest time in my life. I was pinned to the bottom for what seemed like forever, feeling like it was all slipping away to fast, and all i could think about was not being able to pick up my kids on time from their dads. Thank goodness they were not with me that day. No a great place for little kids AT ALL. Just be safe. Mother nature is not one to mess around with. I will give it a 5 because it is a spectacular place, and gorgeous.

During covid they are selling bracelets for accessing the park to be able to guarantee enough safe space for everyone and keep folks healthy. The long rolling falls over smooth granite are just gorgeous. Perfect for picnics, perfect for lounging with your feet in cold water, just perfect for a day trip out of the city.

This section is great there's only 5 and since we had the best lot which has the mini beach you can run down and hop in the water anytime to cool down.

Great location with lots of space!

The water is impossibly clear (you can see the stones at the bottom!), there are boardwalks and beaches to enjoy, as well as swimming and boating you can do in the warmer months. We only visited for a short while so just got to walk along the beach and splash a little, but I could see this being a nice place for a day trip to explore, or even stay for a whole weekend trip of activities!

The outhouses were not bad at all either, equipped with hand sanitizer. Our rustic campsites were spacious, but we chose one that was a bit too open. The neighbours didn't arrive until later so it was ok. The trails were very well maintained. Didn't feel like I was hiking an intermediate trial because there was no treacherous terrain to climb through. We had to leave early because there was a storm and it got too cold, but I'd love to come back and see the rest of the huge park!

Our first experience was to get our keys and received Royal treatment from customer service, and got all the explanations, maps needed to make our 1-day camping the most enjoyable. Our site on O-10 was in perfect location, next to the water fountain and proximity to the washroom. Just impressed with the cleanliness of both the unit and the washroom. The camping site was equipped with everything that one would have like to have. Inside was equipped with 4 single beds, dining table, 4 chairs, a wood stove for heating, pots & pans, cutlery, wine glasses. Outside was a gas supplied BBQ, picnic tables and chairs. Even a lamp is provided, as it is pitch black at night, walking to the washroom area. Washroom area was very clean, toilet paper provided and equipped with electrical sockets. There is a separate annexed unit for 2 shower units, with hot water. We did lots of hiking, walking over 10 km and taking nice shots of the most peaceful and picturesque sites. The only thing that one would have to bring is food, bedsheets, pillows, blankets, shampoo, soap and towels. Nothing else. Marshmallows if you want to have a camp fire. Amazing campground to anyone who loves nature, or need to take a break from hectic city life.

The bathroom facilities are also equipped with two sinks outside so you can wash dishes. They have some restrictive fishing rules, which is expected of national parks i guess? You have to go early in the morning to sign up for the draw and you get fishing access to one area only. You must also only use firewood purchased from them but it's not that cheap. The welcome centre also has this cute museum that tells you about the geology, history, and fauna of the park. Also, the park staff are super helpful when it comes to advice for hikes and lookout points. When it comes to views, the lookout points are nice, where you get to see the winding lake and the rock formations at the cascade. There were a ton of people at the cascades which kind of takes away from the nature experience, but its a popular park after all. This park is great for campers that like a little more comfort than back country camping!

The park gets busy over the weekend as it is very close to Montreal, yet there is a lot of space for everybody and the crowds thin out as you go further climbing the hills. Super place to plan a weekend outdoors!
