Late May and late September are the best times to go. I wish it didn’t close so early. Rideau river isnt always the nicest but we love this little gem

After an absence of two years off the camping circuit - we decided to head to Rideau River fo get our camping routines back!
Camp sites are all very flat, well treed and a reasonable distance from one another - giving privacy which is nice.
Bathrooms and shower facility are kept extremely clean and water in shower is hot.
Lovely beach - slow slope for young kids.
Great picnic area next to beach with many tables offering a very nice view of Rideau River. We actually brought our dinner there to eat by the river and were visited by a family of loons which was very nice!
Close to Kemptville (maybe 5 minutes away) where you will find everything you may need - groceries, Canadian Tire etc.

We stayed here for one night in the summer of 2021. We had the site for another night, but decided to leave. The site we were on had no privacy, with just a small line of trees separating one site from another. Our fire pit was located right up against the trees and there was a large gap between our site and the next, so sitting around the fire pit meant we looked right into the neighbour's site. I don't think I have been on another campground where the sites were so crammed in.
There was a boat launch area from which we were hoping to let the dogs swim and take a swim ourselves, but it was incredibly weedy and gross and there was no way we were even letting our dogs in. There is a beach area, but of course the dogs aren't allowed there, so no one got a swim. The weeds also prevented us from using our paddle boards. Of course, the park management cannot do anything about the fact that the river is just a weed-infested mess, but that didn't stop it from ruining our experience. Never going back.

We had an amazing weekend full of relaxation at Rideau River Provincial Park, site 301. It had been many, many years since I camped in a provincial site, and this group site did not disappoint. The site for 50, there were 6 of us, it was perfect. Privacy was good, location was great! The park staff were very friendly and helpful! (Especially the gentleman who our dog immediately bonded with who came numerous times to check on the water).

Rideau River Provincial Campsite is the best camping experience I have ever had. I have camped all over Canada. We stayed in a clean spacious cabin with a cathedral ceiling, a sunroom and a porch with three chairs. There is a kitchen table with room for six people and one double bed and a bunk bed. It is wheel chair accessible. The cabin bordered the Rideau River and a lovely hiking trail. The cabin is very private and surrounded in huge pine trees. The staff are kind and friendly and attentive. They even dropped by to make certain we were having a good visit. A huge orange moon rises over the Rideau River at night. The stars are lovely. It is not a "buggy" campsite. The campsites are very large and clean. There are many hiking trails in the area that are accessible. This is a small campsite and very warm and friendly. I give this lovely campsite 5 stars. We have only good things to say. The Malone Family

Nice campsite for RV. Spacious and shady. Right by the river. Good for fishing, canoe and boat activities. Comfort station was closed because of COVID 19. #0 minutes to Ottawa.

Stayed here for 4 nights and in comparison to other Provincial Parks, I would say the stay was okay (nothing to rave about).
THE WARDENS
As mentioned in other reviews the Wardens are very present in this park. On our first night they were indeed telling patrons they could not burn anything other than firewood and if suspicious they will check out your site (they're just doing their job). But that being said if you have any questions about the park or area they are a plethora of information and very friendly too.
THE BOAT LAUNCH
If you plan on launching your boat here, a word of caution the river is extremely weedy and very shallow. Our first afternoon here we witnessed a boat being towed back because they had a prop failure. We had a similar nightmare experience with our 14 ft boat. My Advice: Try to take a straight shot out to the opposite side of the river where its deepest and weed-free. Unfortunately for us we were to slow to launch and the current carried us into the weed fields and we had to paddle out (to much gunk to run the motor).
THE CAMPSITES
The sites were very clean and large. Mosquitoes were only present sundown. Not ticks, black flies or deer flies to report. Not a lot of privacy and the campsite are across from each other. It's great for families with small children. Not all bathrooms are opened and depending on where you book you might have to walk far.
FISHING
If you're planning a fishing trip around this park, I wouldn't recommend it. The boat launch is the easiest place and saying that is a stretch. I would recommend Charleston Lake or Ferris as alternatives.
THE BEACHES
There are 2 beaches here. If you have a four-legged friend they are perfect for them and even small children. The deepest parts are lease than 2 feet.
ANIMALS
Animals that we did see here during our stay included: Red squirrels, toads Magpies, Sunfish, Snapping Turtles, Blanding Turtle, Dragonflies, Herons, Bass, and a couple of Wolf Spiders.

Will definitely not go back there and will make sure all our friends know. If you read the other reviews you will see the warden comes up and you’ll start to understand that he will ruin your stay. So if you go with friends and plan to talk at night (not party, just talk) don’t go here or else you’ll get in trouble for making too much noise, if you have a dog that barks (the warden S. Moulton) will tell you that he is 100% sure that your dog is barking excessively and will give you a ticket! Yes that right, a 95$ ticket in the middle of the day! It was around 5:30pm! I’ve asked everyone around us people in front, diagonally in front, to our right and our left if they found if our dog (my aunts dog) was barking EXCESSIVELY. They all said no, some even had a dog, they even said our dog wasn’t barking excessively. One of our neighbor's even came to see us to try to help with the situation, but the warden S, Moulton said she has nothing to do with it, she was upset for us. There were plenty of dogs, and as he was giving us the ticket, our dog wasn’t barking but the other dogs were. Please note, my aunt arrived Friday night, midnight-12:30 (so Saturday morning) the ticket was given Saturday afternoon at 5:30pm) the dog hasn’t been there 24h!
Other things, bathrooms are disgusting, couldn’t find running water close by, the beach was dirty, campsites are small and really close together. Remember you can’t talk at night so going with a group of friends isn’t recommended, don’t go if you have a dog that barks (even if you think your dog doesn’t bark excessively...it will be considered excessive)
Never going back and will make sure to spread the word.

Sites were small and very dirty. Trees need to be cut back - our site was advertised as a drive through but we had to back in to avoid damaging the top of our motor Home. Water at the beach was only knee deep. Staff at the gate was down right unfriendly and the park Warden wasn’t very personable. Fire band came into effect on Saturday night (we had been in the park since Thursday) but no one came around to advise us. The park Warden arrived on our site at 10:30 pm and berated us about still having our fire burning 30 minutes after time allowed. I explained that no body had informed us. We immediately put it out but he still went on about it. Very disappointed and sad

Nice level lots for RV's but power only hook-up, as are most Prov Parks. The "Out House's" were pretty hummy over the weekend and should have been serviced earlier, but the regular shower/toilet buildings were fine and free to use. As long as you obey the rules of the park you will not have any issues with the staff, they were courteous and very friendly and helpful. Book early if you want a site with power.
Great location to use the beach, swim, paddle board or canoe for the day. There is a covered shelter for picnics and BBQ's if you bring charcoal.

I would like more information about the comfort stations, if they are new or old, and how clean they are kept. I am particularly interested in the east sector with electric sites.
