Ontario Provincial Parks

I am planning on traveling through Ontario following the North shore of Lake Superior. There are many Provincial Parks to choose from up there, but I would like the freedom of traveling without reservations. The trip will be in August. If I get to a park and it's full, do the Provincial Parks have "overflow" overnight dry camping?

    Bear in mind that if you use a date range of 7 days, for example, if the site is reserved for only 1 of those days the site will show as not available for your entire date range.

    Ontario Provincial Parks do not have overflow overnight dry camping and you will be travelling in 'high season' so you may want to rethink your reservation plans. Also if you have a large RV you will need an XL site and these disappear very fast. During the week you might get lucky but weekends are probably already reserved. You can go onto the Ontario Parks site and check out how full they are right now if you want to. If you put in your date range it will tell you what is left available by each park.
