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.

Our campsite was very clean, large, and quite private thanks to the trees and the sites across being offset. It was also a 2 minute walk to a beautiful rocky beach that provided beautiful views and a relaxing environment. The comfort station was a quick walk up a short pathway and was very well maintained and clean. On Saturday we walked the marsh boardwalk which provided beautiful views and informative signage. Easy 1.5km walk and well worth it. Spent one of the days on beautiful Beach #2 which was not crowded at all. The beach has soft, fine white sand and was very clean. The water was clear and perfect temperature. We also loved how far out we could go because the shallow shoreline goes very deep. We decided to follow the trail that goes along the water from our campground to the lighthouse. It took about 40 minutes each way and provided many beautiful, peaceful views. Unfortunately the lighthouse was under construction, but the view of Prince Edward County from behind the lighthouse was well worth the walk. The water was very calm and clear on this beach side as well. We also stopped at the Nature Center en route which was really interesting. The staff were very informative and friendly as well. Overall, we enjoyed our long weekend at Presqu'ile Provincial Park and would be happy to return again in the near future.

You can reserve your campsite through Ontario Parks website and each campsite offers 1 car and if you are bringing more cars, you need to pay extra. There's both sandy beaches (in day-use camp) and rocky beaches in the campground.

Afterwards, we wanted a place to open up our gifts and hang out some more. What do two people who grew up in the Beaches go? We hit the closest beach, which was Lakeview Park Beach. This beach doesn't take long to get to. It's basically off highway 401 and straight south for a few minutes. It has a large park, a lovely beach, and is next door to Oshawa Museum. There are a few parking lots here. We went into the farthest one and had no problem nabbing a couple of spots. Parking is free. My car straddled a speed bump. It was a first for me! It was fairly busy when we got there before 6 pm. We managed to find a cute area with wooden benches. There were folks taking professional photos, kids going into the water for a swim, and more. We opened up our presents with a sandy beach with ripples in the water as our backdrop. Pretty good! I felt relaxed and happy, as I typically am at a beach, but even more with a good friend. We chatted and watched more kids go into the water to swim. There is some sort of incineration facility by the pier. It's not exactly horrific, but it did look odd at a beach. At around 6:30 pm, a woman on a megaphone indicated that there was no lifeguard on duty. We still saw kids go into the water. The pier has a lighthouse. It looked cute. We didn't walk down there, but we want to when we're not hauling gifts. The splash pad is amazing. It looks new. There's a huge, clear container that slowly tips thanks to gravity, dumps the water out, hits a large plate, and water splashes on everyone around it. It was so fun to watch that we both stood there watching the whole thing a few times, vowing to return one evening at 10 pm to partake in this fun. Adult splash pad? Yes, please! We walked along the cement path for a bit to check out everything. The path is no boardwalk, but it was pleasant and sure beats walking on sand for the entire duration. We both didn't know that this park existed until my friend did a search. The trees have huge trunks diameter-wise, so they've been around and it was lovely see see them. I am grateful for the find. It was lovely chatting in-person with her after a year of physically distancing ourselves during a pandemic. Miracles happen and yesterday felt like one at this wonderful gem of a beach. (253)

Food brought from home, and saw a lot of people were really relaxed there. Some people liked to exercise or biking there. There was a lighthouse there, but it was pretty windy. My kid's hat almost flew out. We walked along the beach to another side of the park, kid's playground. It's not really big, but there were 2 parts, one for adults and one for kids. We planned to let my kid play with sands before, but the sands were a bit rough, I was a bit worried it might have my kid's feet sole cut. And we also needed to go for a long walk by the lakeshore. It's a nice place for the weekend with families there. Let's go next time again.
