Sparrow Lake Camp
4 sites · Tents126 acres · Severn Bridge, ON
Sparrow Lake Camp is situated on the southernmost tip of the majestic Canadian Shield. The site is known to have been a campground for bands of the Huron people prior to the European intrusion. It is considered probable that Samuel de Champlain, the first European to explore Huronia, spent a night on this site in the 17th Century.In 1892, what would become the west side of the current property was sold by pioneer Captain Thomas Stanton to Toronto's renowned Massey family to act as their summer resort. The resort sported the main lodge, dining room, and cottages and was only accessible by train and steamer. From the onset, the Masseys used the site as a summer retreat for the Young Men's Bible League of the Central Methodist Church. Today, the property is a thriving summer camp that also offers overnight tent stays with stunning lake views.

Camping near Gravenhurst guide
Overview
Known as the “Gateway to Cottage Country” due to its historic cottages and inns, Gravenhurst is celebrated for its history and its nature. Hike along trails in Jevins and Silver Lake Conservation Reserve to see native lizards and bogs. Or walk along the Hardy Lake Trail to see more of Ontario’s outcrops. Campers will also find the area rich with RV parks, campsites, and both rustic and luxury cabin rentals. Since it borders Lake Muskoka and Gull Lake—both great spots for swimming, boating, waterskiing, and fishing—waterfront camping is also available.
Where to go
Lake Muskoka
Surrounded by charming cottages and campsites, Lake Muskoka is known for coldwater swimming and steam-boat cruises. Dive into the lake for a swim or take out a canoe, kayak, or jet ski. Anglers can set up for fishing—the lake is home to trout, largemouth bass, and walleye. Walk along Huckleberry Rock Lookout Trail around the lake. Winter campers can also snowboard and ski in designated areas like Gravenhurst Nordic. Nearby campgrounds and RV parks with electric and water hookups make it easy to access the lake (some are situated on the lake itself). Many feature equipment rentals and supply shops as well.
Jevins and Silver Lake Conservation Reserve
Jevins and Silver Lake Conservation Reserve brims with ponds, wetlands, and bogs as well as rare flora and fauna like the five-lined skink—the province’s only native lizard. It also features the Jevins and Silver Lake Trail that’s popular with hikers and backpackers who want to explore red oak and white pine forests. In winter, the trail is used for snowmobiling.
Hardy Lake Provincial Park and Trail
Hardy Lake Provincial Park is full of forested landscapes, lakes, and trails, like its popular three-mile Hardy Lake Loop Trail. It is moderately challenging with its descents and steep ascents, but the effort is worth it to see outcrops and sprawling lake views. Camping is not permitted in the park, but there are nearby campsites and RV parks that have amenities like electric and water hookups. Look for year-round cabin rentals near the park too.
When to go
Gravenhurst is great for camping year-round—though peak season runs from late spring through early fall. Spring temperatures in Gravenhurst range between 0–20°C. Many campers like to visit in September to attend local harvest festivals and enjoy warmer weather averaging around 18°C. Although campers will find a quieter woodland scene during winter, there’s still plenty to enjoy like skiing and snowmobiling. Winter temperatures range from -15–2°C.
