Campgrounds near Havelock, Ontario
Havelock sits in eastern Ontario at the southern edge of the Canadian Shield, roughly halfway between Peterborough and Belleville along Highway 7. The village is best known as a jumping-off point for the Kawarthas, the Trent-Severn Waterway, and the lake country immediately to the north. Most RVers use Havelock as a quiet base for water-based trips on the Crowe and Trent rivers, with easy day-trip access to Peterborough and Prince Edward County.
Campgrounds within a short drive range from small private trailer parks to a provincial park with electrical sites. Blairton Tent and Trailer Park and Bayview Trailer Park sit close to town, while Stoney Point Trailer Park offers sites in the Trent River corridor. Crowe Bridge Conservation Area, managed in partnership between the Crowe Valley Conservation Authority and the Municipality of Trent Hills, provides day-use access on the Crowe River.
For RVers who want serviced camping with a reservation system, Ferris Provincial Park near Campbellford is the anchor destination in the area and the option most travellers book first.
Things to do near Havelock
Water dominates the local trip list. The Trent-Severn Waterway runs south of Havelock through Campbellford and Hastings, with locks, boat launches, and calm-water paddling suitable for families. The Crowe River at Crowe Bridge Conservation Area has shallow wading and swimming over shale shelves at the Weir Dam, a popular day-trip spot in summer.
Hiking is concentrated at Ferris Provincial Park, which has about ten kilometres of trails, a boat launch on the Trent River, and the Ranney Gorge Suspension Bridge over the gorge below Ranney Falls. The Trans Canada Trail passes through the park.
Off the water, Campbellford offers a small-town main street, a chocolate factory outlet, and the Westben concert venue. Peterborough, about forty minutes west, adds a lift lock, museums, and grocery resupply for longer RV trips.

The main camping season in the Havelock area runs from mid-May through mid-October. Ferris Provincial Park operates on this calendar, with its campground typically opening in early May and closing in mid to late October; trails at Ferris remain open year-round for day use. Private parks such as Blairton Tent and Trailer Park, Bayview Trailer Park, and Stoney Point Trailer Park generally follow a similar May-to-October window, with exact dates varying by operator.
July and August are the busiest months. Ontario Parks sites at Ferris are commonly booked well in advance for weekends, long weekends, and the stretch around the August Civic Holiday. Shoulder-season trips in late May, June, and September offer cooler nights, fewer bugs later in the season, and much easier site selection.
Blackflies and mosquitoes peak from late May through late June. Fall colour typically arrives in the first two weeks of October, and freeze-up follows in November, when most private parks close for the winter.
Top Hosts near Havelock, ON
We had such a wonderful experience with Ryan and Ashley. They provided clear instructions on how to operate everything and were quick to respond to a question we had. We were not required to pack camping stoves, cutlery, plates etc as this was all provided by the host. Additionally, they were very thoughtful in leaving us a smores basket which was enjoyed by everyone. I would highly recommend renting from Ryan and Ashley and will use them again on our next camping trip.

How to book
Ferris Provincial Park is reserved through the Ontario Parks reservation system. Reservations are accepted up to five months in advance of the arrival date; for example, you can book January 15 for an arrival date of June 15. The window opens at 7 a.m. Eastern Time on the day it becomes available. Daily vehicle permits for day-use can be booked up to five days in advance. Popular weekends, especially in the Bedrock Loop near the playground and day-use area, tend to sell out as soon as the five-month window opens.
Crowe Bridge Conservation Area is operated in partnership between the Crowe Valley Conservation Authority and the Municipality of Trent Hills; day-use access is handled locally rather than through a provincial system, so contact the municipality directly to confirm current status and any camping availability.
Blairton Tent and Trailer Park, Bayview Trailer Park, and Stoney Point Trailer Park are privately run. Book directly with each park by phone or through their websites, and ask about seasonal versus transient sites, as some private parks in the region lean heavily toward seasonal contracts.
What to expect
Ferris Provincial Park has 163 sites across two loops, Valleyview and Bedrock, with roughly 39 to 40 electrical sites; there are no water or sewer hookups at individual sites. Showers are located at the comfort station in the Valleyview campground, and the dump station and potable water are near the gatehouse, so expect a queue around late-morning checkout.
Swimming is not offered at Ferris; the park advises against swimming in the Trent River due to dangerously strong and unpredictable currents caused when water is released from an upstream dam. Families looking for a swim usually head to Crowe Bridge Conservation Area or nearby beaches on the Trent system.
Cell coverage is generally reliable near Havelock and Campbellford but weakens on side roads north into the Canadian Shield. Bring insect repellent, drinking water for longer stays, and firewood purchased locally to comply with movement restrictions.

Frequently asked questions about campgrounds near Havelock, ON
How much does it cost to rent an RV in Havelock, Ontario?
An RV rental in Havelock is one of the more affordable ways to explore the Kawarthas and Trent Hills region. On RVezy, travel trailers typically start around $100 to $175 CAD per night, campervans and Class B rentals run $150 to $250, and larger Class C motorhomes range from $200 to $325 nightly. Prices peak in July, August and Labour Day weekend, so booking midweek in June or September can save you 20 to 30 percent. For a cheap RV rental in Havelock, filter by travel trailers and look for hosts offering local delivery, which removes the need for a tow vehicle. Shoulder-season fall colour trips through the Kawarthas are gorgeous and noticeably cheaper.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Havelock%2C%20OntarioWhat licence do I need to rent an RV in Havelock, Ontario?
Good news for first-time renters: a standard Ontario Class G driver's licence is all you need to drive virtually every RV listed in Havelock, including Class B campervans, Class C motorhomes, travel trailers and most fifth wheels. No special RV endorsement or commercial licence is required as long as the vehicle and any towed trailer stay within standard weight limits (note that very large Class A motorhomes over 11,000 kg may require a Class D licence in Ontario). RVezy approved drivers are generally 25 or older, and ID verification is handled quickly through the platform at checkout. Visiting from outside Canada? Bring your home licence plus an International Driving Permit if your licence is not in English or French.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039008774-Understanding-approved-driver-requirementsIs insurance and roadside assistance included with my Havelock RV rental?
Yes, every booking on RVezy includes insurance coverage plus 24/7 roadside assistance through an RVezy renter protection plan, so you can hit Highway 7 with real peace of mind. The protection plan covers damage to the RV during your trip, which is reassuring if a branch scrapes the awning at Silent Lake or a stone chips the windshield on a backroad near Belmont Lake. At checkout you choose the protection level that suits your trip, with higher tiers offering lower deductibles. Roadside assistance covers flat tires, battery boosts, lockouts and towing. You are not on your own out there, even on a quiet rural road north of Havelock.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat happens if I need to cancel my Havelock RV booking?
Plans change, and RVezy is built for that. The cancellation policy is set by RVezy (not individual hosts) and includes a money-back grace period right after you book, so you can lock in a great Havelock RV with confidence. After that window, the refund amount depends on how far out your trip start date is. If a host cancels on you, RVezy refunds the guest or provides travel credits so your trip can still happen. Full policy details are available in the RVezy Help Center and your booking confirmation. The takeaway: reserving early to snag the best motorhome rental in Havelock is genuinely low-risk.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037736674-Understanding-the-cancellation-policy-for-guestsCan I bring my dog on a Havelock RV trip?
Absolutely, and the Kawarthas are made for dogs. Many Havelock hosts offer pet-friendly RV rentals, so just toggle the Pet-Friendly filter on RVezy to see motorhomes and travel trailers that welcome your pup. Nearby, Silent Lake Provincial Park and Warsaw Caves Conservation Area both allow leashed dogs on trails and at designated pet beaches, and the Trans Canada Trail along the old rail bed through Havelock is an easy daily walk. Bring a long lead, a collapsible water bowl, and proof of rabies vaccination. Message the host before booking to confirm any pet fees, which typically range from $25 to $75 per trip.
ontarioparks.ca/park/silentlakeCan the RV be delivered to my campground or cottage near Havelock?
Yes, RV delivery in Havelock is one of the most popular options on the platform, especially for first-timers who would rather not drive a big rig. Many local hosts will deliver, level and fully set up your RV at popular spots around the Trent River, Belmont Lake or Round Lake, or at a family cottage in the area. They will walk you through the propane, slide-outs, water system and (if equipped) generator before handing over the keys. Use the Delivery filter when you search, then message the host with your exact campground or cottage address to confirm the fee, which usually scales with distance from Havelock village.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Havelock%2C%20OntarioHow many kilometres do I get with a Havelock RV rental?
You have plenty of room to roam. Most Havelock hosts include between 100 and 200 free kilometres per night, and a good number of listings offer RV rentals with unlimited mileage, which is ideal for a longer Ontario road trip. Extra kilometres typically cost $0.30 to $0.50 each if you exceed the included allowance. To put it in perspective: Peterborough is about 45 km west, Toronto is roughly 170 km southwest, Algonquin Park's southern access is around 200 km north, and Ottawa sits about 280 km east. Tally your planned route before booking, then filter for unlimited-mileage listings if you are chasing fall colours across eastern Ontario.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Havelock%2C%20OntarioWhere are the best campgrounds near Havelock for an RV trip?
You are spoiled for choice. Within about 30 minutes of Havelock you will find private parks along the Trent River with full hookups, as well as Warsaw Caves Conservation Area, which is fantastic for hiking and exploring limestone caves and offers electrical and non-electrical RV sites. About an hour north, Silent Lake Provincial Park has some of Ontario's prettiest backcountry-feeling sites, many with electrical hookups. To the south, Ferris Provincial Park near Campbellford is another great Ontario Parks option with the Ranney Gorge suspension bridge nearby. For RV camping in Havelock during peak summer, book Ontario Parks sites the moment the five-month reservation window opens.
ontarioparks.ca/park/warsawcavesWhen is the best time of year to rent an RV in Havelock?
Late May through early October is prime time for renting an RV in Havelock. July and August deliver classic Kawartha summer with average daytime highs around 25 to 27 degrees Celsius and warm lake swimming, while June offers fewer bugs after the first weeks and great fishing on Belmont Lake. September is the local secret: warm days, cool sleeping weather, and the Canadian Shield turning brilliant red and orange by late September into mid-October. Winter rentals (December to March) are limited because most hosts winterize their RVs, but a few four-season units do operate. For a sweet-spot Havelock RV trip with mild weather and lower rates, target the second half of September.
climate.weather.gc.ca/climate_normals/results_1991_2020_e.htmlI have never driven an RV before. Is renting in Havelock a good idea?
Yes, Havelock is a fantastic place for a first time renting an RV. The roads around town are quiet two-lane country highways like Highway 7 and County Road 30, with light traffic, generous shoulders and easy pull-offs, a world away from city driving. Every RVezy host gives you a full walkthrough at pickup covering driving tips, propane, water, slide-outs and the dump process, and you can message them anytime during your trip. Start with a Class C motorhome or a smaller travel trailer if you are nervous about size. Try a slow practice loop in a large empty lot before heading out to your campground to build confidence.
ontario.ca/document/official-mto-drivers-handbookWhat if something goes wrong with the RV during my trip?
You are never stranded. Every RVezy booking includes 24/7 roadside assistance as part of the renter protection plan, covering tire changes, battery boosts, lockouts, fuel delivery and towing, including the rural stretches between Havelock, Marmora and Apsley. If something mechanical pops up, your host is your first call and they know their RV inside out. RVezy customer support is also available before, during and after your trip if you need extra help. Save the roadside number in your phone before you leave, and snap photos of the RV at pickup so any small issue is easy to document.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat road trips can I take from Havelock in an RV?
Havelock is a brilliant launchpad for an RV road trip in almost any direction. Head about 45 minutes west to Peterborough and the Trent-Severn Waterway lift locks, drive 1.5 hours north into Kawartha Highlands Provincial Park, or aim about 2 hours south to Prince Edward County's wineries and Sandbanks Provincial Park beaches. Algonquin Provincial Park's southern access is roughly 2.5 to 3 hours north, and Ottawa is about 3 hours east via Highway 7. Cross-border trips into the United States are possible with some hosts (Mexico is not permitted), so confirm directly with your host before booking if you are planning a U.S. leg. Build your route around lake stops; the Kawarthas are stitched together by them.
ontario.ca/page/plan-road-trip-ontarioWhat kind of fuel mileage should I budget for in a Havelock motorhome rental?
Budgeting fuel is easier than you might think. A Class B campervan rental in Havelock usually averages 11 to 14 L/100km, a Class C motorhome around 18 to 25 L/100km, and a large Class A about 25 to 32 L/100km. Travel trailers add roughly 30 to 40 percent to your tow vehicle's normal consumption. Gas in the Peterborough-Havelock area typically tracks a few cents below Toronto prices, and you will find stations right in Havelock village, in Norwood, and in Campbellford. Fill up before heading north toward Apsley or Bancroft, where stations are spaced further apart and prices tend to climb.
natural-resources.canada.ca/energy-sources/fossil-fuels/petroleum-products/fuel-pricesHow far in advance should I book a campground near Havelock?
Book early and you will camp where you want. Ontario Parks opens reservations exactly five months ahead of your arrival date through the Ontario Parks reservation system, and prime summer weekends at Silent Lake, Warsaw Caves and Ferris Provincial Park can sell out within minutes of the booking window opening at 7 a.m. Private parks in the Trent Hills and Kawartha area typically open bookings in January or February for the upcoming season. For a July or August Havelock RV trip, lock in your campground first, then book your RV. Midweek arrivals (Sunday to Wednesday) are far easier to snag and often $10 to $20 cheaper per night.
reservations.ontarioparks.ca/What are driving conditions like around Havelock?
Driving an RV around Havelock is refreshingly relaxed. Highway 7 is the main east-west route and it is a well-maintained two-lane highway with regular passing zones. County roads in the area are paved, low-traffic, and comfortable for larger rigs, though watch for occasional frost heaves in spring and the odd deer or wild turkey at dawn and dusk. Cell service is solid in town and along Highway 7 but can drop in the lakes country to the north. Winter trips require winter or all-weather rated tires on most Ontario rentals once snow flies. Local tip: avoid Highway 7 westbound late Sunday afternoons in summer when cottage traffic backs up toward Peterborough.
511on.ca/What amenities do campgrounds near Havelock offer for RVs?
Local campgrounds are well set up for RVs. Private resorts along the Trent River commonly offer full hookups (water, sewer and 30 or 50 amp electric), pools, laundry and Wi-Fi. Other private parks in the area offer electric and water hookups plus a central dump station. Ontario Parks like Silent Lake, Warsaw Caves and Ferris offer electrical sites, shared dump stations and potable water fill taps near the gatehouse. If you are boondocking on private land, Trent Hills operates public services in Campbellford, about 20 minutes south. Arrive with a full freshwater tank from your host so your first night's setup is stress-free.
ontarioparks.ca/campingWhat is included inside a typical Havelock RV rental?
Most Havelock RV rentals come ready to camp. Expect a queen bed plus convertible dinette and sofa beds, a full kitchen with fridge, propane stove, microwave and sink, a bathroom with shower and toilet, climate control with furnace and air conditioning, and seatbelts for travelling passengers (always match seatbelts to your group size). Class C motorhomes and larger units often include a TV, awning, outdoor speakers and a generator for off-grid power. Wi-Fi varies, so plan to use your phone's hotspot in remote areas like the lakes north of Havelock. When you message a host, ask whether kitchen kit, bedding and towels are included or available as add-ons.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Havelock%2C%20OntarioWhat add-ons and pickup options can I expect when I rent an RV in Havelock?
Hosts in Havelock offer a great range of add-ons to customize your trip. Popular extras include linen and bedding packages ($30 to $75), kitchen kits, camp chairs and tables, BBQs, bike racks, kayaks or paddleboards (a real treat on Belmont Lake or the Trent River), generators, and Wi-Fi hotspots on some listings. Pickup is usually at the host's home base near Havelock, Norwood or Campbellford, with delivery available for an extra fee. One-way rentals are not standard, but some hosts will consider them; message them directly from the listing page. Confirm mileage policy, generator hours and any cleaning or dump fees in writing before you book.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Havelock%2C%20OntarioHow does payment and the security deposit work on RVezy?
Payment is straightforward and secure. You pay through the RVezy platform with a credit card at the time of booking, never directly to the host, which protects both sides. A refundable security deposit (typically $500 to $1,500 depending on the RV) is pre-authorized on your card before pickup and released after the trip once the host confirms the RV is returned in good shape with no extra mileage, generator hours or cleaning required. To avoid issues, do a quick walkaround video at pickup and dropoff, return the RV with the fuel and propane levels noted by your host, and keep all communication on the platform so everything is documented.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038106214-How-the-security-deposit-worksIs there a family-friendly RV trip itinerary I can plan from Havelock?
Havelock is made for a family RV trip. A classic 4-night loop: start with a night at a Trent River resort campground (pool and beach for the kids), then head about 25 minutes to Warsaw Caves Conservation Area for two nights of cave exploring, swimming and short hikes, and finish at Silent Lake Provincial Park about an hour north for canoeing on a motor-free lake. Add a day trip to the Ranney Gorge suspension bridge in Campbellford and the Empire Cheese factory store for snacks. Pet-friendly RV rental options in Havelock make it easy to bring the family dog too. Book the RV first, then the parks the day the five-month window opens.
