170 acre property consisting of  1.5 km stretching along a river with water falls at the fare East end of the property. The rest of the property is of mixed bush forest and small meadow to the South end that can accommodate a RV. The property offers a pristine natural environment abundant with wild life, bird watching and plenty of excellent swimming and fishing spots. There is only one easily assessable  RV spot available on the land for booking, this is a small clearing by the entrance area that can abominate up to a few RVs from one group exclusively, or be booked for a single RV to use exclusively. Accessing the remainder of the land is by way of a bush road that will require walking in approximately 1 km or by way of a 4 by 4 vehicle or ATV to access the waters edge.  The K and P mixed use trail runs adjacent to the property and allows travel to Calabogie to the North or Sharbot lake and further South to Kingston by way of ATV right from the edge of the property. Sharbot lake is a short 15-minute drive from the property and offers all the amenity of a small town including a magnificent public beach that is ideal for small children.

River rock point camping spot
Magical little getaway
What a sweet, magical spot! River Rock Point was exactly what I needed for a quick, little camping getaway! Clean, quiet, plenty of room to spread out and explore the fascinating property! The road in was a bit ambitious for my little car, but with care, we managed just fine. Once we arrived at the site, I was struck by the tranquility and beauty… and every little path I explored revealed even more—the rock point actually brought me to tears! J was a pleasure to communicate with—quick replies, pleasant advice and info. I absolutely recommend, and will aim to return again for a longer visit!

River rock point
Loved my experience at river rock camping! It is the bigger site of the two. J was very quick to respond to any questions before and during my stay which is very reassuring. The land is nice to explore and gave us things to do during the day. The portion of the lake were on is very quiet and peaceful with a few neighbours across the lake. Its a nice body of water, i would suggest water shoes to make getting in and out easier. Highly recommend this spot for a nice quiet getaway!

Amazing campsite!
There is quite literally no better campsite than this. This was our second time camping here and we loved it so much that my partner actually proposed to me on the rock this past weekend!! So picturesque and such great memories. Thank you so much to J and his family who rent this site out and are more than accommodating with trip adjustments, etc. It’s our dogs favourite place to go!

Site 1 (left of the cabin)
Mississipi River Camp Site
We had a great long weekend at River Camping and J was able to answer all our questions quickly. The site is on a small point of land right on the water, which is beautiful. The bush road leading to the site/water was long and hilly, but our little popup camper made it and we were able to turn around without too much trouble. With the way the firepit and road are situated, the site itself is not really big enough for much more than a tent and dining tent, unless you're able to park/setup on the road (which blocks access to the family's cottage, a short way down the road). Thankfully, the weekend we stayed, the family was not using their cottage and we were able to block the road. The dock worked well for us, but it is not level and if you have any walking or stability issues, it could be a real challenge. The outhouse was standard but not really smelly, which was a bonus. The horseflies and mosquitoes were vicious during our stay and we were grateful that we had the popup trailer to retreat to, after the sun set, each night. The location is wonderfully quiet and peaceful; we encountered a lot of wildlife, but very few people. We enjoyed kayaking on the river and playing near the waterfall and on the rapids. We'll definitely consider returning, if we can arrange a weekend where we can park on/block the road again, as it made for a wonderfully secluded getaway. Thank you, J!

Site 1 on the water
This is a beautiful little spot and truly in nestled into the country. The view of the water is BEAUTIFUL! The out house is a small walking distance for your convenience. The host was very accommodating and the guests at the other site across the water were lovely, they did not disturb us at all! Please note that site 1 is quite small as there is actually a road that passes through the site to gain access to a cottage farther down the road, so if you have a bigger tent or more than one, this may not be the ideal location for you. We were very fortunate that the host allowed us to block the road to accommodate our two tents! His description is accurate as he did state 1 small tent, it was our fault for seeing photos and thinking we would fit! The host generously left some fire starter materials in the pit for us which was great for getting us going. Make sure you bring bug spray and the good stuff, the mosquitoes are already out! Overall would recommend this site for a small family our couple with one tent 🏕️
