Campgrounds near Prince, Ontario
Prince Township sits west of Sault Ste. Marie in Ontario's Algoma District, along the shore where Lake Superior meets the St. Marys River. The area is rural and forested, with the Precambrian Shield to the north and Great Lakes shoreline to the south. Most RV travellers use Prince as a quiet base for exploring the Sault, the Lake Superior coast, and cross-border attractions in Michigan's Eastern Upper Peninsula.
Campground options span both sides of the international border. On the Canadian side, Pointe Des Chenes is a Lions Club campground on a sandy Lake Superior beach near the Sault Ste. Marie Airport, and the Sault Ste. Marie KOA Holiday sits just off Highway 17 north of downtown. Across the border in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, Brimley State Park fronts Whitefish Bay along Lake Superior, while Bay Mills Resort and Casino and the adjacent Bay Mills RV Campground offer sites on the Bay Mills Indian Reservation.
Crossing the international bridge requires a passport, and cell coverage can be patchy once travellers leave the city.
Things to do near Prince
Prince Township is a launch point for Lake Superior paddling and Great Lakes Waterfront Trail cycling. Gros Cap Bluffs offers hiking with views over the mouth of the St. Marys River, and Gros Cap serves as the western terminus of the Great Lakes Waterfront Trail. The local Prince museum covers township history.
In the Sault, the Agawa Canyon Tour Train, Canadian Bushplane Heritage Centre, Ermatinger Clergue National Historic Site, and Sault Ste. Marie Canal National Historic Site are the main draws. Across the border, RV travellers can visit the Soo Locks, the Point Iroquois Lighthouse near Brimley, and Tahquamenon Falls State Park within roughly an hour's drive.
The nearby bays and rivers are a destination for fishing, and a number of designated trout streams are located within a 30-minute drive of the park in the Hiawatha National Forest. Whitefish, perch, northern pike, bass, and walleye are all present.

The camping season around Prince is short. Most Ontario provincial parks and private campgrounds in the region operate from May through October, and winter camping in northern Ontario is only practical for well-equipped campers because temperatures routinely drop well below freezing. Brimley State Park across the border in Michigan typically operates from spring through late fall, with specific opening dates varying by year.
July and August are peak season. Days are comfortable, Lake Superior beaches are usable, and waterfront sites at Brimley State Park and lakefront spots at Pointe Des Chenes book well in advance. Summer weather along the lake can shift quickly, and cool evenings are common even in July.
Late spring brings blackflies and mosquitoes in the surrounding forest. September and early October are quieter, with fall colour along the Algoma coast and cooler nights. Bay Mills Resort and Casino keeps its RV park open year-round, which is unusual for the area.
Top Hosts near Prince, ON
Excellent Host will definitely rent from Thea again
Chantal M. - Aug 2026
Absolutely amazing hosts! Unit was clean and fully functional when delivered. We had plenty of water for the week for 4 adults (no showers in the RV 😁). I absolutely recommend renting from Thea! Excellent and quick communication.

Nick was a great host! Always reachable, answered every question we had very promptly and with patience—as someone new to trailers I had a lot of questions! Great rental experience. Perfect set up for families. Nick made it the easiest experience and was so helpful. Highly recommend. My family had the best camping trip!

How to book campsites near Prince
Each campground uses its own reservation channel. Brimley State Park is booked through MiDNRReservations.com or by calling 1-800-44-PARKS, with state park campsites generally reservable six months in advance of an intended stay, and a Recreation Passport required for vehicle entry into state park and forest campgrounds. Waterfront sites at Brimley fill quickly for summer weekends.
The Sault Ste. Marie KOA Holiday is reserved directly through the KOA network. Bay Mills Resort and Casino and the adjacent Bay Mills RV Campground handle bookings through the resort directly. Pointe Des Chenes, operated by the Sault Ste. Marie Lions Club, has historically carried mostly seasonal sites with a long waiting list, so travellers should confirm current overnight availability before planning a stop there.
What to expect at Prince campgrounds
Expect a rural, working-forest landscape with easy access to two Great Lakes shorelines. Sites vary widely: Brimley State Park has 237 campsites, most level and grassy, all with electric hookups (48 with 50-amp and the rest with 20/30 amp), and amenities include drinking water, flush toilets, hot-water showers, a dump station, a camp store and boat launch. The Sault Ste. Marie KOA Holiday provides pull-through and back-in RV sites, cabins, and a dog park near Highway 17.
Bay Mills RV Campground has pull-through sites with hookups, laundry, and showers, and sits close to casino dining and entertainment. Pointe Des Chenes has sandy beach access and showers.
Cell service is fair in the area and drops off in the surrounding bush. Firewood should be purchased locally to avoid moving invasive pests.

Frequently asked questions about campgrounds near Prince, ON
How much does it cost to rent an RV in Prince, Ontario, and how can I save on my booking?
RV rental in Prince is an affordable way to explore Algoma compared to booking hotels in Sault Ste. Marie. On RVezy, travel trailers in the Prince and Sault Ste. Marie area typically range from about CAD $125 to $200 per night, while Class C motorhomes generally run CAD $200 to $325 per night. To find a cheaper RV rental in Prince, book mid-week trips in late May or September, look for hosts offering weekly discounts, and choose a travel trailer if you already have a capable tow vehicle. Pro tip: the Agawa Canyon fall colour season fills up fast, so locking in your RV rental Ontario booking by mid-July helps secure better pricing and selection.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Prince%2C%20OntarioWhat licensing do I need to rent an RV in Prince Township?
Good news: a regular Ontario Class G driver's license (or your home province/state equivalent) is all you need to rent an RV in Prince, Ontario. There is no special RV license, air-brake endorsement, or Commercial Driver's License (CDL) required for the Class B campervans, Class C motorhomes, and travel trailers listed on RVezy in this area. You must be 25 or older to book, and RVezy verifies your ID right inside the platform before pickup. Visiting from abroad? Bring your home license plus an International Driving Permit (IDP) and you are set. Most first-time renters in Algoma District are surprised how straightforward the paperwork really is.
ontario.ca/page/drivers-licencesWhat protection is included when I rent an RV in Prince, Ontario?
Every RV rental in Prince booked through RVezy includes a renter protection plan plus 24/7 roadside assistance, so you can head up Highway 17 toward Lake Superior with confidence. You choose your protection level during checkout (not the host), and the plan helps cover accidental damage to the RV during your trip. It is not traditional auto insurance, but it provides meaningful financial protection that first-time renters appreciate. Pro tip: review the coverage summary on the RVezy insurance and protection page before booking so you know exactly what is included, then enjoy that Gros Cap Bluffs sunset worry-free.
rvezy.com/insurance-and-protectionWhat if I need to cancel my Prince, Ontario RV rental?
RVezy sets the cancellation policy across the platform (not the individual host), and it includes a grace period right after booking so you can change your mind without penalty. If a major weather event or other qualifying situation impacts your trip, RVezy support reviews those cases directly, and host cancellations are refunded to the guest or covered by travel credits. Northern Ontario weather along Lake Superior can shift quickly, so it is reassuring to know you are not locked in the moment you book. Pro tip: book early to lock in summer dates near Pancake Bay, then finalize details closer to your trip.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037736674-Understanding-the-cancellation-policy-for-guestsCan I bring my dog on a pet-friendly RV rental in Prince, Ontario?
Yes, many hosts welcome dogs. You can filter listings on RVezy with the Pet-Friendly toggle to see only rigs that allow pets for your pet-friendly RV rental in Prince. Algoma is a great region for dog owners: Pancake Bay Provincial Park has a designated pet beach area, Lake Superior Provincial Park allows leashed dogs on most trails and at Agawa Bay Campground, and many local trails near Prince Township are leash-friendly. Pro tip: message the host before booking to confirm any pet fee and share your dog's size and breed, then plan a sunset paddle at Gros Cap with your four-legged co-pilot.
ontarioparks.ca/park/pancakebayCan the RV be delivered to my campsite in Prince Township?
Yes, RV delivery in Prince is a popular option, especially for first-time renters who would rather skip driving a larger motorhome. Many hosts will deliver and set up your travel trailer or fifth wheel directly at Pancake Bay Provincial Park, Agawa Bay Campground in Lake Superior Provincial Park, or a private property in Prince Township. They typically handle leveling, hookups, and a full walkthrough before they leave. Pro tip: filter for 'Delivery' on RVezy and message the host with your campsite number so they can confirm distance fees upfront. You arrive, the RV is ready, and your Prince RV trip starts on the beach.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Prince%2C%20OntarioHow far can I drive my RV from Prince, Ontario, and is unlimited mileage available?
You have plenty of range to explore from Prince. Many hosts offer generous daily mileage allowances (often 200 to 400 km per day), and some list RV rental with unlimited mileage, which is ideal for longer Algoma road trips. From Prince, popular routes include Pancake Bay Provincial Park (about 75 km north on Highway 17), Lake Superior Provincial Park's Agawa Bay (around 150 km), Wawa (about 230 km), Sudbury (roughly 300 km east via Highway 17), and the North Channel of Lake Huron toward Manitoulin Island. Pro tip: if you are planning a full Lake Superior Circle Tour, filter for unlimited mileage hosts, it can save you significantly versus per-kilometre overage fees.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Prince%2C%20OntarioWhere can I camp with my RV near Prince, Ontario?
You have great options for RV camping in Prince and the broader Algoma region. Pancake Bay Provincial Park (about 75 km north) offers more than 300 sites, many with electrical service, and a long sand beach on Lake Superior. Agawa Bay Campground in Lake Superior Provincial Park has lakeside sites, some with electrical hookups. Rabbit Blanket Lake Campground inside the same park offers quieter forested sites. Closer to home, KOA Sault Ste. Marie offers full hookups about 20 minutes from Prince Township. Pro tip: book through the Ontario Parks reservation system five months ahead at 7:00 a.m. ET, the moment waterfront sites release for holiday weekends.
reservations.ontarioparks.ca/When is the best time of year for an RV trip from Prince, Ontario?
The sweet spot for a Prince RV trip is mid-June through mid-September, when daytime highs in Algoma typically run around 20 to 25 degrees Celsius and Lake Superior beaches are at their warmest. July and August are the busiest months, while late September into early October offers spectacular fall colours along the Agawa Canyon and at the Pancake Bay Edmund Fitzgerald Lookout. Spring (mid-May) is cool but quiet, with overnight lows often around 5 degrees. Pancake Bay Provincial Park typically operates from May through mid-October. Pro tip: book the third week of September for peak red maples plus a real chance of seeing the northern lights over Lake Superior.
climate.weather.gc.ca/climate_normals/results_1991_2020_e.html?searchType=stnName&txtStationName=sault+ste+marie&stnID=4936Can I rent an RV in Prince Township in winter?
Yes, winter RV rentals are possible in the Sault Ste. Marie and Prince area, though availability is more limited than in summer. Some hosts list four-season rigs with heated holding tanks, propane furnaces, and shore-power hookups suitable for Algoma winters, where January lows often drop near minus 18 degrees Celsius. Winter renters often use the RV as a basecamp for snowmobiling on the Algoma trail network, ice fishing on local bays, or skiing at Searchmont Resort north of the city. Pro tip: message the host directly to confirm the rig is set up for winter use (not just storage), and ask about a generator add-on for backup heat if you plan to camp off-grid.
climate.weather.gc.ca/climate_normals/results_1991_2020_e.html?searchType=stnName&txtStationName=sault+ste+marie&stnID=4936I have never driven an RV before. How does pickup work in Prince, Ontario?
First time renting an RV? You are in great hands. Every RVezy host provides a full orientation at pickup, walking you through driving, propane, water systems, slide-outs, and dumping. For nervous first-timers in the Sault Ste. Marie and Prince Township area, a Class B campervan rental in Prince, Ontario or a smaller Class C is the easiest to handle on Highway 550 and Highway 17. If the thought of driving still feels intimidating, choose a host who delivers and sets up at your campground. You can also message the host before booking with any question. Pro tip: do a short practice loop on Second Line West before heading toward the twists of Highway 17 north of Batchawana Bay.
ontario.ca/page/driving-and-roadsWhat happens if something goes wrong on the road in Algoma?
You are never on your own. Every motorhome rental in Prince booked through RVezy includes 24/7 roadside assistance as part of the protection plan, so a flat tire on Highway 17 near Batchawana Bay or a dead battery at Pancake Bay is just a phone call away. RVezy customer support is also available before, during, and after your trip, and your host is usually a quick text away for questions about their specific rig. Cell coverage is solid in Prince and Sault Ste. Marie but can thin out north of Montreal River Harbour. Pro tip: download offline Google Maps for Algoma before you leave and screenshot the roadside assistance number on your phone.
rvezy.com/insurance-and-protectionCan I take my RV across the border into Michigan from Prince, Ontario?
Cross-border trips into the United States may be allowed on an RV road trip from Prince, but it depends on the individual host and the RV's insurance coverage. Sault Ste. Marie sits right at the International Bridge into Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan, making it a natural launchpad for a U.S. Lake Superior loop through Paradise, Tahquamenon Falls, and the Mackinac Bridge area. Travel to Mexico is not permitted on RVezy rentals. Always message the host before booking to confirm U.S. travel is allowed and get written approval through the RVezy platform. Pro tip: bring your passport, ownership documentation provided by the host, and declare any food at the border to avoid delays.
cbsa-asfc.gc.ca/travel-voyage/menu-eng.htmlWhat should I budget for fuel on a Prince, Ontario RV trip?
Fuel is one of the bigger line items but easy to plan for. Class B campervans in the Sault Ste. Marie area typically get around 10 to 13 L/100 km, Class C motorhomes around 17 to 23 L/100 km, and a half-ton truck pulling a travel trailer roughly 15 to 20 L/100 km. Gas in Sault Ste. Marie is usually a few cents cheaper than at smaller stations in Batchawana Bay or Wawa, so fuel up before heading north on Highway 17. Pro tip: a round trip from Prince to Lake Superior Provincial Park's Agawa Bay and back is roughly 300 km. Budget approximately CAD $70 to $110 in fuel for a Class C on that drive.
statcan.gc.ca/en/subjects-start/prices_and_price_indexes/consumer_price_indicesHow far in advance should I book a campground for my Prince, Ontario RV trip?
For Ontario Parks, book five months ahead of your arrival date at 7:00 a.m. ET through the Ontario Parks reservation system. That is the window for snagging waterfront sites at Pancake Bay or Agawa Bay Campground, which can fill within minutes for July and August weekends. Private parks like KOA Sault Ste. Marie accept reservations year-round and are often easier to grab last-minute. For best campgrounds near Prince in shoulder season (late May or September), you can often book just a week or two ahead. Pro tip: if your dates are sold out, set a free cancellation alert. Cancellations happen often as trip plans change.
reservations.ontarioparks.ca/What are driving conditions like around Prince, Ontario?
Driving an RV around Prince Township is genuinely manageable, even for first-timers. Highway 550 and Highway 565 through the township are paved, well-maintained, and rarely busy. Highway 17 north toward Pancake Bay and Lake Superior Provincial Park is scenic but has curves, hills, and the occasional moose crossing, so drive in daylight when possible and watch for posted wildlife zones. Winter brings lake-effect snow squalls off Lake Superior between November and March, and summer can bring sudden fog along the coast. Pro tip: Gros Cap Road has steep grades near the bluffs, so if you are in a larger Class A, stick to Second Line West for the easiest route to and from Sault Ste. Marie.
511on.ca/What hookups and dump stations can I expect at campgrounds near Prince, Ontario?
Here is the realistic picture for Algoma campgrounds. Ontario Parks like Pancake Bay and Lake Superior Provincial Park offer electrical service (15, 30, or in some sites 50 amp) at many but not all sites, with no water or sewer hookups at individual sites. Both parks have trailer sanitation stations with dump and potable water fill, plus comfort stations with flush toilets, showers, and laundry. For full hookups (water, sewer, 30/50 amp), head to KOA Sault Ste. Marie. Pro tip: top up your fresh water and dump before leaving any park on a Sunday afternoon. The line at the Agawa Bay dump station can be long during peak checkout times.
ontarioparks.ca/park/pancakebay/campingWhat amenities come inside a typical RV rental in Prince, Ontario?
You get more than you might expect. Most motorhome rentals in Prince sleep four to seven people and include a full kitchen (fridge, stove, microwave), a bathroom with toilet and shower, a furnace and air conditioning, and a dinette that converts to a bed. Many also have a TV, Bluetooth stereo, outdoor awning, and a built-in generator for off-grid power. Travel trailers offer similar layouts minus the drive cab. Built-in Wi-Fi is uncommon, but cell-based hotspots work well in Sault Ste. Marie and along most of Highway 17. Pro tip: ask the host whether bedding, towels, and kitchenware are included or available as an add-on so you can pack lighter.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Prince%2C%20OntarioWhat add-ons and pickup logistics should I know about for my Prince, Ontario rental?
Hosts in the Prince and Sault Ste. Marie area often offer useful add-ons: linens and bedding packages, camp chairs and outdoor tables, kayaks or paddleboards (great for Whitefish Bay), generators, propane top-ups, and bike racks. Delivery and setup is the most popular paid add-on, typically priced by the kilometre from the host's location. Standard pickup is from the host's driveway in Prince or a Sault Ste. Marie neighbourhood, usually with a 30 to 60 minute walkthrough. Mileage policies vary by listing and are shown clearly on each one. Pro tip: bundle delivery with a 'fully stocked' add-on for the easiest first-time RV rental experience.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Prince%2C%20OntarioHow does payment and the security deposit work when I rent an RV in Prince, Ontario?
Payment is simple and secure. When you book your RV rental in Prince through RVezy, your trip total is charged through the platform (never directly to the host), which protects both parties. A refundable security deposit, set by the listing, is pre-authorized on your card before pickup and released after the RV is returned in the same condition. Avoid issues by taking timestamped photos and videos of the RV at pickup and dropoff. Pro tip: keep receipts for your fuel-up and dump-station visit. Bringing the RV back fuelled up and with tanks handled per the host's instructions is the easiest way to get every dollar of your deposit back.
