Camp, Ottawa river, Grenville C-O-G

11 sites · RVs, Tents59 acres · Brownsburg Chatham, QC

Come and enjoy a traditional, rustic camping experience on the mighty Ottawa River! Bring your water shoes and a canoe or kayak, or you may rent one of ours for an unforgettable adventure. C-O-G is located on the Quebec side of the Ottawa River, east of the bridge that passes over from Hawkesbury, Ontario. This beautiful (mostly) deciduous forest is situated on both sides of the 344/Rte Des Outaouais. The 59 acre property (50 acres on land, ~9 acres of river/water) features scenic views, privacy and is host to many outdoor activities such as swimming, canoeing, kayaking, fishing and more. "Lock Lane Point" ...the shared area Also referred to as "the Point", this is the peninsula that the main roadway ends at (where the BBQ, kayaks and canoes are), this is a shared area for us and our guests to enjoy. It's encouraged that guests feel welcome to come and go freely, promoting a sense of community while respecting shared use. The Point offers a large picnic table, a shared propane BBQ, comfortable seating, a large rock perfect for sunbathing, and a river view. It's an ideal spot for swimming and launching canoe, kayak, or paddle-board river excursions, thanks to its shallow entry and rocky bottom. Adventurous visitors might choose to paddle upriver, around an island, and return through the remaining historic canal. For a more strenuous workout, consider paddling up the canal to the Grenville lighthouse and then drifting all the way back to camp with the river's current. Enjoy this historic, lazy river experience! Amenities... Numerous amenities are located within a distance of 1-3 kms, including a gas station with electric vehicle charging facilities, an IGA grocery store, and various restaurants such as McDonald's and Tim Horton's. For a classic poutine experience, Jos Patate is a great choice, having been around for many decades. If you're looking for a wide range of poutine options, La Fromagerie is the place to go. For ice cream lovers, La Crémière, located in the same building, is a must-visit. Tourism... Numerous tourist attractions are conveniently located in the vicinity, such as the exhilarating white water rafting experience on the Rouge River and the wildlife-filled Parc Omega zoo, both within a short 10-25 km distance. For a wider range of activities, day trips to Ottawa, Montreal, the Calypso water park, or Mont Tremblant are all approximately an hour's drive away. A little History... Our property has played host to a portion of the rich history of this area which included three railway tracks, a canal and a lock. The railway beds remain and the lock has simply been flooded over. Following the war of 1812, three Ottawa river canal systems were constructed between 1819 and 1833 to bypass the Long Sault Rapids on the Ottawa river. These canals were in use until 1961 when a large portion of the canal system was submerged due to the construction of a hydro-electric dam (~22kms downriver) at Carillion. As a result, the river level at our property rose high enough to submerge the top of the lock walls by ~3.5 feet. This submerged lock is located a few hundred feet offshore and can be seen using Google Earth as it measures 50' x 300' in size. Once you have a good idea where it is, throw on your water shoes and a life jacket and enjoy an interesting experience of walking on the walls of a submerged lock.

Camping near Terrebonne with swimming guide

Overview

Just 20 minutes north of Montreal, Terrebonne is the gateway to Lanaudière, a region of Quebec known for farmland, lakes, hiking, and skiing. And although Lanaudière is all about nature, life closer to Terrebonne is a mix of outdoor excursions (including golf, camping, and hiking) and cultural activities (such as theatre visits, historic sites, and 18th-century architecture). With Montreal so close, campers around Terrebonne have easy access to all the amenities and services they could want.

Where to go

Terrebonne

In the city’s old sector, Vieux-Terrebonne, visitors can visit pre-industrial buildings, the Île-des-Moulins historical site, and the Théâtre du Vieux-Terrebonne, which hosts Francophone artists from around the world. Those craving time outside can find an incredible network of cycling routes, including the intermediate Trans-Terrebonne, a 25-mile (41-km) path that stretches from the Saint Lawrence River to secluded woods. Those keen on a shorter route can check out the 2-mile (3.4-km) Parc de la Pointe-de-l'Île park walk and its water views.

Lachenaie

Just east of Terrebonne where the Saint Lawrence River meets the des Mille l'Îles and Prairies rivers, Lachenaie is an access point to Route Bleue des voyageurs, a 96-mile (155-km) canoe route. The nearby Parc-Nature Pointe-aux-Prairies is perfect for those who prefer to explore on land, as it can accommodate snowshoeing, cross country skiing, fat-tire bikes, hiking, and birdwatching. If you happen to be camping near Lachenaie and notice an oak tree, take it as a sign of good luck—the community is immensely proud of its massive oak trees, which are featured on its coat of arms, official motto, and many parks.

La Plaine

Farther from Montreal than Terrebonne or Lachenaie, La Plaine has a quiet, relaxed vibe.

The area highlight is the La Seigneurie des Plaines cycle path, a 13-mile (21.5-km) route linking the Laurentians and Lanaudière regions, and extending through the towns of Sainte-Anne-des-Plaines, Blainville, and Terrebonne itself. Campers in search of a bit of luxury can find beachfront tent sites in the area.

When to go

Camping is most popular in and around Terrebonne from June to September. Sites book up quickly around Canada Day and Saint-Jean-Baptiste Day (celebrated throughout Quebec on June 24.) Those eager to experience winter activities can expect snow from mid-November to mid-April, though snowsport conditions are usually best between late December and early March.

Know before you go

In Lachenai, SAIL is an outdoor outfitter that sells everything from tents and hiking boots to flashlights.
Central Montreal and Terrebonne are connected by public transit. The Terrebonne station is in Zone 5—the trip takes about an hour.
Louisiana in the US also has a community called Terrebonne. When doing your research, make sure you’re focused on Quebec!
