Marten River Escapes offers six waterfront campsites with 30 amp hydro service and three non waterfront campsites, one with 30 amp and two with 50 amp service. A couple are seasonal sites, most are transient sites. All have access to potable water faucets. A shared comfort station with flush toilets and showers with hot on demand water is centrally located. There is no sewer connections but we do have a honey wagon and guests can access dumping into our onsite septic tank. We also have one rustic glamping cabin in the campground area and a new 14 unit building under construction on the southeast portion of the property. There is an on site restaurant offering dine-in, patio seating, and take out service. (seasonally operated - hours vary depending on the season) In addition to the amenities available on the campsite you will also have access to enjoy the common shared areas of the property. Our property boasts 1000' of waterfront surrounded by crown land. We have a new shared dock with Muskoka chairs and a (typical Northern Ontario) swimming area in our semi-secluded bay. We recommend water shoes for those who go swimming and to bring a fishing rod (and fishing license) if you want to give that sport a go. A sunshade pergola was just added to the main dock area with several other seating areas scattered around the property providing relaxing water views and spectacular sunsets, all available for your enjoyment. There is a large open area to enjoy a game of frisbee or other lawn games. We also have a few water toys. A canoe, a kayak, a peddle boat and two small (fishing type) motor boats are available for a small rental FEE. You must have a valid boaters license in order to be able to rent the motor boat. All water equipment renters must sign a renters agreement prior to use. Due to sizing and proper fit, for safety we do recommend guests bring their own life jackets/pfd's but we do have some that can be used. We have a private boat launch and for a small extra fee you can reserve a dedicated boat slip space during your stay for your own personal watercraft. Boats or other water toy equipment are NOT to be left on the shore. A few local public boat launches into different lakes are also nearby. For those powersports enthusiasts (ATV's, SXS etc.) there are 100's of km's of crown land trails accessible from our property. We do NOT rent ATV's. There is space to park ONE passenger vehicle along with your rv/trailer or tents on each campsite. VERY large trucks will limit the usable lawn space available on the site. Extra passenger vehicles and/or equipment trailers must park in overflow parking.

The best camping in Temagami River Provincial Park, ON guide

Overview

About

Embark on a journey through the serene waters of Temagami River Provincial Park. This 30-kilometre stretch of river offers a range of white water paddling experiences, from novice to advanced. Navigate through the park's scenic waterways, encompassing parts of Red Cedar Lake and the entirety of Thistle Lake, also known as Island Lake. With its rich natural beauty and thrilling rapids, the park promises an unforgettable adventure for paddling enthusiasts.

When to go

The best time to visit Temagami River Provincial Park is during the warmer months when the water levels are ideal for paddling. From late spring to early fall, visitors can enjoy the full splendour of the park's waterways. Winter visits are less favourable due to harsh conditions and limited access, making water-based activities challenging.

Know before you go

  • Check the North Bay Parry Sound District Health Unit for any regional advisories before planning your trip.
  • Be aware that some park facilities and activities may be restricted to specific areas, dependent on ecological considerations, or seasonally weather dependent.
  • For general inquiries or assistance, contact the park at (705) 569-3205.
  • Remember that Temagami River Provincial Park is classified as a waterway, so prepare accordingly for water-based activities.
  • Always prioritize safety when engaging in white water paddling; ensure you have the appropriate skill level and equipment.
