Edited, found camp store was closed. Not that we rely on it but if your park is open everything should be open. Felt they should just close for the season if they only wanted to halfass it. If you go maybe during the peak summers months would be better. Very low privacy between sites, sites are very close together. Facilities are older and need updating like other PP's been here two days and comfort station have not been serviced yet. Park staff at gate was friendly but more staff needed. There was a line up and it was not even busy. Most parks will draw you the direction to your site. This park just handed me the guide and we had to open it up and figure it out while people were behind us on the single lane park area to get out and register. Found most sites had previous tickets in posts like staff doesn't even care to collectors them after site maintenance. Our site still had previous permit from a month and a half ago in it. This could be a nice park if a bit more pride and effort was involved from staff. We pay good money for electrical sites and it just doesn't leave us with the wanting to come back. Highly recommend Portland Burwell over Rondeau. Many US plated, they don't seem to care how they act, and found leash laws were not enforced. Had two incidents where other off leash dog's ran over to ours and had problems. Talked to ranger. Was told they would keep an eye on them, more discipline required. Will never go back to Rondeau Park. Really disappointed, been to 5 PP's this year all have been a good experience, not this one.
We went there for camping. It was really nice and, we really enjoyed our time. We visited the pet beach, which was sandy and beautiful. The walking trails were good too.
I liked it here, nice place with lots of stuff to do. Long hiking trails and beautiful scenery. The camp grounds aren't as private as a lot of other parks but still decent. Bathrooms were always close by and so were showers. The lake water though was ice ! I don't normally care about cold water but this was just freezing and I came here on a warm July weekend so I doubt it gets much warmer. Ice cream was good and huge!!! And very inexpensive for the amount you get.
My family and I have been coming here for 40+ years and my parents/families even longer. Its a wonderful place to visit. Even if just for a day, weekend or camp for week or longer. Lots of activities to do. You have lake erie on one side of the peninsula and the bay on the other. The bathrooms throughout the park are always clean. The bathrooms in the campground area are nice as well, always clean, with showers available. They tend to shun on loud noise and partying but are fairly reasonable, as long as your not getting to out of hand. We camp with large group's of 20+ on multiple site together and with that many people we tend to be on the loud side. They are usually pretty tolerant to our noise. Amazing hiking trails, museum, bay store with food, and ice cream. Dog beach area, Pavilion areas, boat launch on the bay side, children's park, group camp sites available, of course swimming, and much much more. Just an amazing place that my family and I cherish and look forward to visiting each summer. We absolutely love Rondeau
Nice long trails for bike riding or walking. Well maintained with lots of wildlife. The windsurfers were awesome to watch. Endless amounts of beach. Purple sand at some of the beach spots was so cool. Beautiful place we will be back again soon.
Great place to take the family. Have a picnic, go for bike ride, boating, fishing, hiking ect. The only down fall is the cost to get in the park is too high
Honestly if I could close down this park I would. This park is infested with deer ticks or also called black legged ticks. My family and I pulled over a hundred off my dog and I have taken pictures of them. I really can't believe that our provincial government keeps this park open and put people at risk to collect what 11$ a vehicle. Lime disease is not like catching a cold, it's a serious disease and its been proven to be found and humans have contacted Lyme disease in the park but yet they keep it open.
I like this place for family camping. Store is OK but not massive, proximity to the beach is wonderful. Lake Erie is shallow and sandy so water depth is absolutely not an issue until you are very far from shore which can be good. The Bay-side is good for sunfish with kids if you're lucky.
We were hit with an unbelievable rainstorm that flooded our site one night but within a short time, the puddles and standing water had drained away as the sites are sandy rather than clay.
Nice park. The route that walks along the point has been washed out but it still makes for a nice, fairly relaxed, stroll.
$17 just to park your car though! Park nearby and get there by bike.
A so so experience. Most of campsites are in full sun and fire cannot be moved to change their location. no other tree is planted to replace those who were uprooted. the full bins were not collected during our week and the smell was awfull. Bathrooms were not that clean and disgusting during weekend. Our showers were with one button without the choice of temperature.. Hot was the only choice Nice while it's 35c outside. Not a good place to fish from the shore.The young park employees were great. Great Grocery store 20 min out from the camping. You need a gazebo because of mosquitoes. 70% humidity all the way and high heat. Don't want to come back again.
