Emily Provincial Park

Emily is a stunning provincial. Located right along the water. We camped here for Thanksgiving weekend and had a fantastic time. The park is very clean and the staff were always super friendly. All the other campers were polite and respectful of everyone else. Emily is located to close to a few other provincial parks which was really nice. Emily is a great place to spend the day or a weekend of camping.

The Park is awesome! I had a great time walking the trails and checking out the beautiful lakes. The views are stunning and perfect for a chill day or a picnic with friends. Everything is super clean, and I loved seeing all the wildlife there

The sites are larger and a little more spaced apart than many other pro. Parks. Wood has gone up to $10 a bag and ($6 for kindling bag) Staff is courteous and friendly. Some noise from exterior roadways but otherwise pretty quiet. Site fees around $150 for three nites on a electrical site. Shower and bathroom Facilities are decent. Overall four stars because there is always room for improvement and nothing is perfect. (Other parks need to separate the sites better, they are too close together.) I must add, I am in favor for "NO" site fees because this is "OUR" land. There should instead be a park fee for entering.

It has a great mix of areas and camping spots. You are not crowded in. Also, you are close to Omemee and Peterborough for convenience. Good trails,swimming and fishing all from the parks camp grounds. Both the comfort stations and dumping stations are clean and well pointed for all your needs. Don't forget to go to the camp store for some ice cream. All in all, it's a great park. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

What a wonderful little family oriented park. It's been called a hidden gem, and I personally 100% agree! Easy nature walking trail that's not too long. It's perfect for children to handle. It has two sandy beaches and a roped off swimming area. Fishing is okay along the Pigeon River. There are kayak and canoe rentals. Local attractions: There is a local dairy nearby along with another day use provincial park for more trail walks. Peterborough is only 20 minutes drive, where you can see and watch the life locks move boats through the Trent-Severn waterway. Great picnic area too!
