Campgrounds and RV parks near Kenora, ON

Kenora sits on the north shore of Lake of the Woods in Northwestern Ontario, roughly two and a half hours east of Winnipeg by highway. The area is a mix of Canadian Shield bedrock, boreal forest, and thousands of islands, and it functions as the main service town for a large recreational lake region. RV travellers use it as a base for provincial park camping, private lakeside resorts, and boat-access fishing. Campground options fall into two clear tiers. Ontario Parks operates Rushing River Provincial Park about twenty minutes southeast off Highway 71, and Sioux Narrows Provincial Park farther south along Lake of the Woods. Both are seasonal, reservable through the provincial system, and popular with families. Private options handle full-hookup RV needs. Anicinabe Park sits on the lake within walking distance of downtown Kenora. Parkview RV Resort and Tomahawk Resort And RV Park round out the nearby private inventory, catering to travellers who want serviced sites, laundry, and easier big-rig access.

For Rushing River and Sioux Narrows Provincial Parks, book through the Ontario Parks reservation service online or by phone. The booking window opens up to five months before the arrival date, with new inventory dropping at 7:00 a.m. ET. Popular waterfront sites are often taken within minutes of opening for summer weekends, so create an account in advance and be logged in before the window opens. Private parks including Anicinabe Park, Parkview RV Resort, and Tomahawk Resort And RV Park take reservations directly through their own offices, websites, or phone. For day-use entry to a provincial park without an overnight booking, advance daily vehicle permits can be purchased up to five days before your visit starting at 7:00am ET through the same Ontario Parks system.
