All depends on what amenities you're looking for are.
Our favourite local is Poplar Grove, but we haven't been in a few years. We spend all our camping away from home, no use in camping 10 minutes from the sticks and bricks. E(30A)/W/S and indoor pool - anything else is unusable. No cable or wifi. HWY 31 right outside the park, go north and you're in front of Parliament Hill in 15 minutes.
One we've been looking at but haven't been to yet is Recreationland, between Ottawa and Rockland. HWY 17 brings you to Ottawa in about 20-25 minutes, but avoid during both rush hours. E(30 and 50A)/W/S/Cable/wifi.
Those are the only 2 local campgrounds we would consider.
