Campgrounds near Orillia
Orillia sits between Lake Couchiching and Lake Simcoe in central Ontario, roughly 90 minutes north of Toronto. The area functions as a hub for Lake Country camping, with a cluster of Ontario Parks properties and private RV parks within a short drive of the city.
The three provincial parks closest to Orillia are Bass Lake Provincial Park, Mara Provincial Park, and McRae Point Provincial Park. Bass Lake sits about ten minutes west of town on a smaller inland lake, while Mara and McRae Point both front the north and east shores of Lake Simcoe within a short drive of Orillia. Private options include Hammock Harbor Resort and Heidi's Campground, which give RV travellers alternatives when provincial sites fill.
All three provincial parks are classified as Recreational and accept trailers and motorhomes, with a mix of electrical and non-electrical sites. McRae Point is the most RV-friendly of the group, with pull-through sites built for large and extra-large equipment.
Things to do around Orillia
Lake Simcoe and Bass Lake drive most of the activity. Swimming beaches sit inside Bass Lake Provincial Park, Mara Provincial Park, and McRae Point Provincial Park, and each park has boat access to its lake. Anglers target perch, smallmouth bass, walleye, lake trout, whitefish, and muskie across the Lake Simcoe system.
McRae Point connects boaters to the Trent-Severn Waterway through its launch on Lake Simcoe. Short hiking trails run through all three parks, including the Water's Edge Trail at McRae Point and a 2.8 km trail at Bass Lake.
Off-park options include downtown Orillia along Lake Couchiching, Casino Rama a few minutes east, and the Stephen Leacock Museum. Gas, groceries, and dump-station access are all within a short drive of every campground on this list.

The Ontario Parks camping season around Orillia is short. Bass Lake and McRae Point typically operate from the second Friday in May through Thanksgiving Monday in mid-October. Mara has an even shorter window, running from early May to the first week of September, with reservations offered for the Victoria Day weekend and then again from the third Friday in June through Labour Day.
July and August are peak season. Long weekends, especially Victoria Day, Canada Day, the August civic holiday, and Labour Day, book out early and often hit capacity. Shoulder-season trips in late May, June, and September usually see easier availability and cooler nights.
Winter shuts down camping at the provincial parks, though Bass Lake keeps its day-use area open for snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, and hiking on the park roads and trail network. Private parks in the area generally follow a similar May-to-October pattern.

JD is a very nice host. I rented 2nd time. He delivered and picked up the RV from my house. Highly recommend him
Waqas M. - Aug 2026
We had a great experience with JD. The trailer made our yearly camping trip, which we already loved, even better. It was clean, comfortable and having a fridge/freezer combo and A/C was a dream!
Marianne S. - Aug 2026
We used it for our family reunion. It was excellent, we were comfortable, everything we needed was there. We loved it.
Normand E. - Aug 2026
As first-time RVers, we booked Tim and Jay’s Thor Motor Coach specifically to experience RV living, and they made the entire process seamless from start to finish. Right from the offset, Tim provided a thorough walkthrough and walkthrough brief so we felt confident before hitting the road. The RV was fully equipped with all the essentials, down to the small details like extra napkins and supplies, which saved us so much hassle. Even when we ran into a quick issue mid-trip and had to reach out, Jay responded with top-tier customer service and resolved everything smoothly and patiently. They genuinely cared about our experience and went above and beyond for us. If you’re looking for a reliable, fully stocked RV with incredible hosts, look no further. Highly recommended!

How to book a campsite near Orillia
Ontario Parks handles reservations for Bass Lake, Mara, and McRae Point through a single system at reservations.ontarioparks.com. The booking window opens five months ahead of the arrival date, and daily reservations release at 7:00 a.m. Eastern. Popular summer weekends often sell out within the opening minutes of the release window.
An Ontario Parks account is required before booking. Site type matters: electrical, non-electrical, pull-through, and barrier-free sites are each reserved separately, so RV travellers should filter by their rig length and hookup needs before selecting a loop.
Private campgrounds such as Hammock Harbor Resort and Heidi's Campground book directly through the operator. Cancellations do free up sites through the summer, so checking the Ontario Parks system daily can turn up last-minute openings even at fully booked parks.
What to expect on-site
Bass Lake has 182 sites across four campgrounds (Cedar, Lakeview, Hilltop, and Eastside), with electric sites concentrated in Hilltop and Eastside. Comfort stations offer flush toilets and showers, and there is a dump station, park store, and canoe and kayak rentals. Maximum RV length is around 32 feet.
McRae Point has 203 sites split between North and South campgrounds, with the North Campground built for larger RVs on pull-through electrical sites. Fully serviced comfort stations sit in the North Campground, and a boat launch, nature trail, and swimming beach are within walking distance of most sites.
Mara has 105 sites in a single campground, 36 of them electrical, plus a comfort station with showers, a trailer sanitation station, and a wide sandy beach. Recent Emerald Ash Borer removals and ice storm damage have thinned tree cover at Mara and McRae Point, so shade can be limited on some sections. Cell service is generally good across all three provincial parks.
