It’s been years since I’ve been to Miquelon Lake Provincial Park. To say I was shocked is an understatement. The shock was on several levels.

Firstly – the paid camping areas. Well maintained, organized, clean, did I mention clean? The crew out there is visible, monitors things, and has answers. I like that. It was far too crowded for my liking, but Lin and Ben enjoyed it, despite the overnight chill I hope.

Secondly, the lake. Woah. The water level is far below the level I recall. salinity is high, and in our area, sand was more than limited. That didn’t stop Ben from throwing every rock he could find – but then, it wouldn’t have stopped me either.

If you’re looking for a paid campground that offers a good variety of serviced and unserviced slots – with lake access and plenty to see and do – it’s not a bad option.
