Need a Stop Over 40 Miles East of Toronto?

Need a one night stop over 40 Miles east of Toronto off of 401. Anyone have any suggestions? RV park, boondock, Wal-Mart, etc would be fine.

Thanks for your help.
  • Darlington Provincial park. About a 45 minute drive east of Toronto. You can go online and have a look. If you like you can look at sites pics and info then reserve online or by phone. We usually do it online but there are certain times of the day that things aren't up to date. It would be better to call the toll free reservation number.

    Looking up park info, looks good. Is there an exit road or number to take off of 401 to get into the park? Can't find anything on the maps.
  • Cobourg or Port Hope, east of Oshawa.
    There is a Walmart or Canadian Tire or you could try getting in Victoria Park in Downtown Cobourg on the beach of Lake Ontario. Wonderful location but old style rv park. Depends how long your are staying.
  • I sent you a private message, but just saw your rig photo. My suggestion will not work. Here is another option. Canadian Tire at the Brock Street Exit on the 401 allows overnight parking. Take exit 410 from ON-401 E, Go North on Brock for just a short distance (200 meters) and turn right onto Consumer's. Canadian Tire is on the right.

    Exit 425 south on Courtice Road to Darlington park road. Turn west 2km to park gate. Reserve as soon as you can.
