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.

The best camping near Voyageur Provincial Park guide

Overview

About

Located halfway between Ottawa and Montreal, Voyageur Provincial Park is steps away from the Quebec border. As such, visitors enjoy bilingual service from all park staff. They also get access to four beaches set along the Ottawa River and two boat launches, so it’s easy to explore the water and go fishing and birding. Bald eagles are frequently spotted here, as are osprey, snow geese, and great blue herons. Voyageur Provincial Park offers car camping in three campgrounds: Champlain, Iroquois, and Portage.

Notable campgrounds

Best for quiet camping: Iroquois Campground has radio-free and dog-free sites for those who want a serene camping experience.
Best for big groups: Voyageur Campground has a group camping section. Four of the group sites can accommodate up to 100 people and one can accommodate groups of 50.
Best for swimming: Champlain Campground is within walking distance to swimming spots and the day-use area, which has several beaches and a pet area.

Tips for snagging a campsite

All Ontario provincial parks accept reservations up to five months in advance of arrival.
Campsite reservations cannot be changed or cancelled more than four months in advance. As such, if you don’t get a reservation when sites open up, wait until the four-month mark when some cancellations might come in. Campers receive a full refund provided they cancel before noon on their day of departure. If you need a last-minute site, check around noon to see if you can grab a spot vacated by someone who is leaving early.
Voyageur Provincial Park allows for all-season reservations. Instead of the usual 23-day camping limit, these spots welcome campers for the duration of the season and are often snapped up by RV campers.

When to go

Voyageur Provincial Park is open from mid-May until mid-October for camping and again from mid-December to mid-March for winter day use. Campsite reservations are popular for the Canada Day long weekend (July 1). As the park is just down the road from Ottawa, this is a very busy time for the entire region. Visitors should also book early to claim a spot around Saint-Jean-Baptiste Day, celebrated across Quebec on June 24.

Know before you go

You might hear Voyageur called “Carillon Provincial Park.” When first established in 1971, this was the original name. However, a similarly named site in nearby Quebec created lots of confusion and led to the park being renamed in 1994.
Voyageur Provincial Park has a park store, but if you’re in search of more than the basics, head to the nearby town of Hawkesbury. It has plenty of grocery options, hardware stores, restaurants, and a Canadian Tire store with camping supplies.

The nearby village of Vankleek Hill is home to Beau’s Brewery, one of the most popular craft breweries in southeastern Ontario. Ask about the DAVIDsTea London Fog, an Earl Grey latte-inspired ale.
