Anyone in Ontario looking for a place to take off on the August long weekend, we have a very nice park booked for Aug 4-7. Full hookups, a pool and golf on site, $25 a night. About 15 coming but lots of room for more if interested.
Just outside of St. Marys Ontario, or south of Stratford. Called Sicence Hill park. We don't restrict by make of trailer, everyones welcome here.
Let me know if you want to get in on this good time.

This get-to-gether is also open to anyone the U.S. who wants to see how nice the weather can be in Canada at this time of year. We have had sun shining for the past two weeks.

I believe you have picked the same weekend that there is a Metro-Detroit Forum Event in south east Michigan - not too far away from Ontario. You may have a hard time getting U.S participation from the Michigan/Ohio area because of this. Of course, you could pull a little farther and attend the Metro-Detroit event instead. I believe some Ontarioan's are already planning to attend the Metro-Detroit event.

Here is a link to the Metro-Detroit event:

By the way, if things were different, I'd love to make it to an event in Ontario. We go to Manitoulin Island each summer, and have travelled around Ontario a bit before we got the Airstream. A rally that included a play a Stratford might be interesting.

Doug.. the Ontario rally sound good and we are interested. Does the campsite have a web site. Is there more info on your get-to-gether at another location?

Shacksman · 06-13-2006, 07:13 AM

This is not a rally, just some people getting together for the weekend. We have about 15 trailers coming from all over, just a laid back weekend. Pot luck meals, a corn roast if corn is ready, a campfire at night.
The park is very nice, lots of trees and grass. Really is a golf course with camping. Out of the way and not very busy, with 83 sites we will be mostly on our own. No web site, I am offering the info here for people that want a great place for the long weekend thats not overrun.

August is coming and we have lots of room at the park for anyone looking for a place to camp for the long weekend. Let me know so we can hold spaces.

We're still planing this get-to-gether for anyone in Ontario looking for a place to take off on the August long weekend, we have a very nice park booked for Aug 4-7. Full hookups, a pool and golf on site, $25 a night. About 15 coming but lots of room for more if interested.

I'm also interested ! I haven't heard of this campground.
Is it possible to see some pictures of this campground.
It seems really nice! I live in the Hamilton areas.

Shacksman · 07-05-2006, 10:35 PM

I don't have pictures on hand, but it's like camping on a treed golf course. Well cared for place, full hookups, quiet country location and no-one knows about the camping. 83 sites and most are empty, even on a long weekend. We have a great time.

Hi Doug.

Just down the road from you in St Marys.

We may be interested, I'll check with the boss.

Any activities for three year olds there?

Shacksman · 07-06-2006, 07:24 AM

Hi gowyn;
We are at Avonton. You may have noticed the trailers at the side of the building. Stop in on your way past some time.
There is a nice pool at the park

I've seen you, wilco

gowyn · 07-15-2006, 10:32 AM

Looks like we'll make it.

See you there.

Road Ruler · 07-15-2006, 11:39 AM

We too are putting in an effort to make this meet as well. We need a break from the busy Provincial Park scene and this park sounds like a refreshing change.

It's a nice quiet park except when we show up as a group

Find the park north of St Marys on Perth Rd 130 or James St North, then west on 14th line to Science Hill Golf course and campground. Or South of Sebringville on Perth 130 you will see my place on the right.

gowyn · 08-02-2006, 11:29 AM

swung by the park this am.

Here are some pix of it.

BigAl · 08-02-2006, 01:32 PM

If your get together goes well and you plan one for later this year I would like to try and make it. Unfortunately we are already busy this weekend.

Great to hear of get-togethers in Ontario!

Our Bambi is on order, so no camper till late September. Maybe next year!

We do have our teardrop however, but camping in the Adirondacks for a week starting Friday

My wife is from London so we are often down that way.

Have a great time!

Cheers

Hi all from Ontario.
I have spent quite a bit of time in Ontario for work. Of course, most of it in the Windsor area. I have spent a bit of time in Toronto, Hamilton and Niagara Falls for work as well.
I have always wanted to take the family camping there. All we ever hear about over here in Michigan is about The Pinery. Everyone here goes there. Just what I want to avoid!

I had no idea that you guys have a long weekend this coming weekend. If I had known earlier in the year I could have scheduled the Metro-Detroit Rally around your trip and we could have taken over the campground!

Well, we can always try for next year.
BTW, that campground looks AWESOME! Have fun and let all of us "Yanks" know how your get-together went.
