Thousand Islands National Park — Attraction in Front of Yonge

This review is geared more towards the oTentiks as opposed to the park itself. We stayed in oTentik D in Mallorytown Landing. It was ok. Two adults, 2 teens - we made the most of it. It was fun. The otentik was comfortable and spacious. We had a nightly visitor, we called him Rick the Raccoon. He wasn't aggressive, we shooed him away. The food box did a great job of keeping Rick's paws off our goods. We liked the location of the bike trail along the Thousand Islands Pkwy. Rode our bikes into Rockport - strolled along the village and had ice cream. We very carefully launched our kayaks and SUPs right from our otentik site - watch out for the slippery rocks, wear water shoes with good grip. Firewood is $8.99/bag. oTentik D is the closest to the bathroom - be prepared to hold your breath or bring a mask. But otherwise it's not bad. Each of the oTentiks has their good and bad points. But we liked Site C the best - it was the flattest, where was Site D had a bit of a slope. Site C was still close to the firewood cage and the bathroom. No matter which site you choose, there will always be some noise. The Parks Canada boats take off early each morning, they are closest to Site E but the boats are so loud you can hear them from every site. Plus the road noise from the Thousand Islands Pkwy, the train tracks closeby. The oTentiks are all very close to each other. The trees give separation and privacy but you can def hear when a baby is waking up at 3am. There are 2 showers. The shower was nice and warm but you will have unwanted winged guests showering with you. One of the showers had a broken light. There is a sign that says the showers are only for the oTentik guests. There is also a sink if you want to do your dishes there. All in all, we had a great 3 days. We would def revisit/camp there again. TIPS: bring a wagon, ear plugs, sleeping mask (the sun is bright in the morning), water shoes with good grip, also wear water shoes in the shower. We brought a fan to keep in the tent to help circulate the air better. We had multiple Thermacells going and they did a lousy job of keeping...

Thousand Islands National Park is an absolute treasure and a must-visit for nature lovers. The park is stunning, with its crystal-clear waters, lush islands, and beautiful wildlife. Whether you're into kayaking, hiking, or just soaking up the serene surroundings, this place has something for everyone.

The hiking trails are well-marked and offer breathtaking views of the islands and the St. Lawrence River. We particularly enjoyed the trails on Mallorytown Landing, which provided a perfect mix of forest and waterfront scenery. The park is also a haven for birdwatchers, with plenty of opportunities to spot various species in their natural habitat.

Camping here is a dream. The campsites are clean, well-spaced, and offer incredible views, especially those right by the water. It's an amazing experience to wake up to the sound of the river and the sight of the islands in the...

Loved my visit to the Thousand Islands national park. I visited the place on a warm summer's day. Selected this as a stop in the drive from Toronto to Ottawa. This was a very welcome break from the monotonic Highway driving. Plenty of parking available( for a very modest fee of under 10 cad). The staff were friendly and pointed out the nice spots to us. Nice little nooks around the Lake with enough privacy to change near that lake of you really didn't want to walk from the restrooms to the lake in your sun wear. I loved the area and will come back next time with my kids. Children friendly. I can easily see me and the family coming here on a nice sunny day and spending all day doing the different things - swim in the lake, trek around the park, have a barbeque and finish up with...
