Anyone know any great places for camping or cottage

hey guys,
summers here!!! at least I hope it is... lol

anyways, to the point....
last year I went camping at Algonquin Park, which was a good 3 hours drive from Mississauga, but it was absolutely fun and a great place to be...
it has wicked sceneries if you guys are into that..and nice tails to bike ride and hike...but the only thing i dint like it no having cell phone service lol...
but i highly recommend u get a camp site with electricity lol


second one i been to is Sauble falls...wicked location and tons of activities to do...canoeing, etc

also, the Sauble beach is just 10 min away...

anyone else have any places you can recommend?
looking to go somewhere new this yr...

anywhere in muskoka or north of that. point peele (i doubt thats how its spelled) the most southern point in canada, its a long drive but super worth it. anywhere along superior is always good, same with huron or erie even. nipissing is good too. same with near pancake bay. but idk if you can get electric sites.. when we go we do it proper roughing it 100% . no cell phones, no mattresses, no electricity or electric appliances (besides flashlights and headlamps). its so much more fun like that though

I'm with jdmEJ1. I always go camping to this spot I know. Small island, there is no electricity nor cell connection.
Last year I got dragged out to sauble beach, it was ok, but while we had camp fire people pulled out little propane stoves...like wtf?

Wilderness is the way to go. Can't wait to go camping again.

I'm going to Valens (located close to Hwy 6 and 401) for this weekend for camping. Always liked it there. I also recommend Fanshawe, just outside of London.

Algonquin is the only way to go.....nothing like having a secluded lake to yourself!

I've never been camping and I've never played hockey... Maybe street hockey once and a cottage twice but thats about it
