Welcome to Restoule!
We have 60 acres of very private camping. Our land is a bird watcher’s and nature lover’s paradise. We have loads of trails and a 2500ft canal that leads to Commanda lake. There is an abundant amount of wildlife to explore: birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, insects and mammals.
The site is well maintained and the forest is quiet and beautiful. Guests can enjoy hiking, biking, wildlife watching, and so much more!
Our property is family and pet friendly, designed specifically for those who really enjoy camping without 1500 neighbors and a fun o'clock switch.
I live on the canal trail half way to the lake. The campsite is on the opposite side of the property.

We have 4.4 acres of land on a spring fed lake. (Even though it is spring fed the water is warm for swimming.) We are located between Trout Creek and Port Loring on Hwy 522. We have 3 vintage trailers, each with a slightly different experience.
Enjoy kayaking, canoeing, swimming and fishing. We also have a 4 person paddle boat. Bring water shoes if you have them. The water edge is in it's natural state.
The trailers come fully equipped. You need only bring food, bedding and 1 pound propane tanks to use the small barbeque.
Our property is off the electric grid. The trailers have fridges and stoves powered by propane and the lights are powered by battery recharged with solar panels. We do not at this time have running water and the toilets are clean outhouses - not stinky and disgusting.
We have a couple of small docks and you can fish right from the dock. If you are a bird lover you will enjoy watching the blue heron and hearing the loons and frogs sing at night.
This property often experiences spectacular sun sets.
We have fire pits, books and board games.

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.

It was amazing! The bunkie was adorable and even in the middle of winter they accommodated.
In the winter months the access road turns into an OSFC trail! That was a bit of a shocker but we made it and it seems as though Michelle keeps it fairly maintained up until the bunkie, so thank you. Also looks like Theres a lot more to offer when Theres no snow. Definitely coming back in the summer

We had a great time at Light House Landing! We celebrated our 6th anniversary at the cabin and it was a great experience, we woke up every morning to a beautiful sunrise on the lake! Jim, Alyssa and Fran have created such a welcoming environment and were great hosts (like texting to tell us turtles were hatching on the beach one morning or showing us how to feed the chickadees). The cabins were very nice, clean and on the water. We would highly recommend this little slice of paradise

Overview
About
Immerse yourself in the untouched splendour of West Sandy Island Provincial Park. Venture into this nature reserve, where the red pine forests whisper stories of resilience and the swamps of silver maple and green ash thrive in quietude. Wildlife enthusiasts and photographers find their haven here, capturing the essence of Lake Nipissing's confluence with the Upper French River.
When to go
The best time to visit West Sandy Island Provincial Park is during the warmer months when the park's natural beauty is most accessible. However, be mindful of the July thunderstorms that can dramatically transform the landscape. Off-season visits offer solitude but come prepared for limited access and colder conditions.
Know before you go
- Check the North Bay Parry Sound District Health Unit for any health advisories before your visit.
- Remember, the park has no facilities; plan accordingly for a true back-to-nature experience.
