If you plan to go camping this summer, Ontario Parks has announced it will be reducing its maximum length of stay for the camping season at parks across the province. Here’s what you need to know.
According to its most recent post, to ensure that more people can enjoy the campgrounds, Ontario Parks will reduce the maximum length of stay at select parks between July 1 and the Saturday of the Labour Day long weekend.
“We’ve heard from countless visitors how frustrating it can be to miss out on a summer camping reservation. With reservations in high demand, it can be difficult to get a campsite at some of our park campgrounds,” reads the post.
At select parks, the maximum length of stay will now be seven or 14 nights during the camping season compared to the previous 23 nights.
