Pinery Provincial Park

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!

Beautiful park. So many choices. Camped at group site 1-1502 close to the public beaches, just a short walk to P5. Nice trees and spacious campsite. Be aware that to access this site it is on the one way only part of the road so returning means having to do the whole loop around the park, which is quite long! Plan your trip accordingly! Also our group site only had 6 picnic benches and the next one over had 13? It be great if they had similar amounts. Facilities were clean, camp store is well equipped and has many cute souvenirs. Also many hiking, canoeing and kayaking options. My only complaint is the dog beach. If the P1&P2 areas could be an off leash dog beach just like Port Burwell it would be perfect! There are signs everywhere indicating it is on leash only but some dogs are off leash which causes tension for the on leash dogs. Either enforce it for everyone or designate it as a true off leash dog beach and it would be perfect!

It was a really great beach! Amazing sand and crystal clear water! I recommend coming early in the morning when parking and entrance at the gate is not that busy. The drive from the gate to P1 is quite long but it is nice to be submerged with nature. I love this beach! One of my favorites!

Beautiful beaches and warm water when we camped during July. The lake is shallow, so you can spend a lot of time in the water. Bathroom are well maintained. Staff presence makes the area feel safe and comfortable. We stayed at a group camping site with friends. Picnic tables, fire pits were available. No running water at site but we could get it nearby (close to washrooms). Showers are located further away. Overall great experience!

We had a delightful camping experience here over the weekend, and we found the stay to be quite enjoyable and comfortable. They offer a variety of activities, including hiking trails, pristine beaches, and kayaking/canoeing. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at this park and would highly recommend it to others. PS: Carry bug spray and sunscreen. Otherwise you get to buy them at the park store.
