Campground near Stratford, Ontario?

We will be making the rounds of central Michigan in late August, and considering a side trip to Stratford to take in a few plays. I'm finding it difficult to find a campground that has a reasonably good rating within an hour's drive of Stratford. Anybody have a suggestion to offer? Would much appreciate it.

  • The Pinery Provincial Park near Grand Bend right on Lake Huron, if you can get in. It's a very special place and books up early in the season
  • Some of the closer ones are conservation areas with camping. The closest is Wildwood Conservation Area just down the road on Hwy 7. Laurel Creek near Kitchener is a little further East.Ontario Conservation Areas.

    The nearest provincial park is the Pinery on Lake Huron. Very nice but busy. Ontario Parks Reservations

    Whatever you choose, make sure you make a reservation well in advance especially if you want a weekend.
  • Try Green Acre RV Park (http://www.greenacrepark.com/ ) in Waterloo near St Jacobs, about an hour from Stratford. This park is also situated in Mennonite country where the nearby St Jacobs market is worth a visit as well.
  • Thanks to all for the suggestions. I'll check them out this morning to see what's possible. Any other recommendation are appreciated. Love this forum. ??
