Pinery Provincial Park

Winter camping in December was perfect - snow, peace and tranquility. Lots of birds to see, trails are in good shape too. Roads are cleared quickly if snowfall, and comfort station has hot showers👍. The park staff are very friendly and accommodating.

My boyfriend and I visited the Pinery this fall for a quick camping trip, and we were absolutely captivated by the beauty of the area! Our campsite was just a short stroll from the stunning shores of Lake Huron, where the dunes and unique shoreline left me in awe. The park itself was incredibly well-maintained, with clean facilities and plenty of activities to enjoy throughout our stay. On our last day, we ventured out for a hike, soaking in the peaceful surroundings and breathtaking views. It was the perfect getaway, and we’re already looking forward to returning to this little slice of paradise!

Great place to relax. My boyfriend and I love going here, we are from Michigan but the drive is totally worth it. The people here are so kind. The facilities are fantastic, the restrooms are always clean, there’s a shop where you can buy everything you need basically, and you can rent kayaks and bikes in case you don’t have. The city of Grand Bend is like 15 min away from here and it’s also pretty cute. Definitely recommended!!

If you’re in the area don’t miss this park. Great all year round, but, gets very busy in the summer. Beautiful beach.

My husband and I came winter camping here this January. The pull through campsites are spacious, and close to comfort stations that are very clean and nice to have of course. The downside we found about Pinery was their poor map. Not everything is marked so it is very had to reference where you are, for example “dune ridge” and “chickadee” trail are not even on the map as well not all comfort stations are marked. Also in the winter not all of the roads are open, which means if you want to do certain trails you have to walk minimum 5km to get there… the park is HUGE! We did enjoy it enough to come winter camping, but we noticed a TON of campsites which lead us to think this place would be extremely busy in the summer. The store is also closed in the winter which we were bummed about. I wouldn’t highly recommend but if you love winter camping and want to get out there it’s ok.
