The best waterside camping near Kawartha Lakes

·

In Kawartha Lakes, waterside camping means waking up to the slap of paddle on water and the calls of loons echoing off the shore. You'll find over 80 campsites right on the lakes, rivers, and creeks—prime spots for swimming, wildlife-watching, or snow sports as the seasons turn. Pitch your tent for as little as $25 a night, though most sites average around $120. Top picks include Sparrow Lake Camp (67 reviews), Beneath the Stars - Haliburton County Escape (56 reviews), and Dragonfly Ridge Rescue Farm (54 reviews). Most sites come with toilets, showers, and allow campfires—practical comforts after a day on the water. Bring sturdy waterproof boots and a sense of adventure; the lakes here reward both.

Weekend Trip to Tryfan Forest
We stayed at the Hemlock Grove site with 7 people, 3 cars and had plenty of room! We had 2 hammocks and 3 tents, this site is great for hammocking. Brent was very accommodating and provided all the information we needed. Unfortunately we got hit with some bad weather, but I would recommend Tryfan Forest to anyone looking to enjoy a quiet weekend on a beautiful piece of land.

First time here and the host was very welcoming. We picked a spot close to the water but there was no car access to the site so we had to change it at the last minute. The host was very accommodating and made the changes without any issue. We like the site we chose and would come back again.

Our stay at the Robyn's nest was very enjoyable! Ronald and Robyn are great, friendly hosts that have maintained a beautiful property. Not only have they provided a fully functional washroom on site, but they take the time to clean it regularly. There are also many things to do nearby.

Great spot to camp. Great hosts ! Easy directions. Flat site to camp on after a short steep hill access. Deer, wild turkeys, loon & more Right across the road from a beach where you can swim and a white water racecourse where you can watch people playing, and or racing in the rapids. A clean washroom as well. I short drive in to town makes it one of the best places I’ve camped. Thank you, Robyn & Ronald !

Weekend Trip to Robyn's Nest
we loved tent camping at robyn’s nest, great campsite and slim shady is highly recommended (and not just because of the name). bathrooms were clean and the lake was just a stones throw away from the site, with a easy access boat launch. 10/10 would book again!

Weekend Trip to Robyn's Nest
My family and I loved our little getaway at Ronald's. If you're looking for a nice quiet spot with lots to do within a couple minutes walk or drive look no further.

1 night at Uxbridge Igloo
We had a lovely time in the Igloo. The location is beautiful and the water was clean and swimmable. The zip line and the slide were pretty fun too. We oiled have loved if the toilet was not beside the bed, it doesn’t smell lovely while in bed. Nonetheless we had a lovely time. Cleaning guy crept up on us before 11 am check out and scared the bejesus out of us. Maybe coming after 11 am would be a nice touch. The sound of the river while sleeping was a plus ! Bring a fan if you are visiting in the summer it is hot. The sauna is lovely and close to the water so you can plunge when it’s hot;)

We made a last minute stop, and glad we did! We arrived at sunset just in time to take in the gorgeous lake views. Clean, quiet and beautiful spot. Only thing I would change is the amount of time we got to spend here.

It was an amazing getaway weekend!!! Ronald and wife are very accommodating and friendly, they don’t mind spending time just to check if guest are all good and having fun! Very clean, quiet, and washroom is well maintained, Area is just a walking distance from lake and river. You’ll never get board in the camp site, they set up plenty of activity that all ages can play with, mini park for kids as well, Highly recommended and planning to be back soon!!!

Robyn’s nest is one of the best camping sites so far. Both couple are very accommodating, kind and they’re always making sure we’re doing well in our site. The washroom is well maintained, clean and smells good. So many fun activities/games they prepared to make your day fun and enjoyable experience. The site are just a few minutes walk down the beautiful, calm Lake and Stunning Running water River that you surely gonna enjoy the cool water from the river. I definitely recommend the Robyn’s nest to my friends to come and visit the site.

Weekend Trip to Robyn's Nest
We went camping for the weekend at Robyn’s Nest with our dog and it exceeded our expectations. It is a great location, with the water just across the road as well as the rapids. You are still minutes to the town as well for any last minute items you may need. Robyn and Ron were so kind, coming around each morning and evening to ensure everyone had everything they needed and check in on how everyone’s stay was going. There was plenty of lawn games, privacy between all the sites and the bugs were not bad at all! The bathrooms were a great addition as well, very clean and well maintained. We would definitely come back to Robyn’s nest! Thanks again Robyn and Ron for your hospitality - you guys are great! ☺️
