Campgrounds near Stirling, Ontario
Stirling sits in Hastings County in southeastern Ontario, roughly a 20-minute drive north of Belleville and the Bay of Quinte. The village is a practical base for RV travelers exploring the Trent River corridor, Northumberland County, and the southern edge of the Kawarthas, with a mix of private RV resorts, municipal conservation areas, and provincial park camping within an easy radius.
Close-in options include Island Park RV Resort and Great Canadian Resorts & Campgrounds for full-service private stays, along with Heritage Trails Campground for a smaller-scale experience. For paddlers and swimmers, Crowe Bridge Conservation Area on the Crowe River near Marmora is a popular day-use stop with river swimming below a weir dam.
The closest provincial park camping is Ferris Provincial Park, just outside Campbellford. It offers over 150 sites across two loops, riverside trails, and the Ranney Gorge Suspension Bridge, and it books through the Ontario Parks reservation system.
Things to do around Stirling
The Trent-Severn Waterway runs through nearby Campbellford and Frankford, giving RV travelers access to boating, fishing, and lock-side picnicking. The Ranney Gorge Suspension Bridge at Ferris Provincial Park spans the gorge above the Trent River and provides views of the river, exposed rock faces, and surrounding woodland. The park also holds roughly 10 kilometres of marked hiking trails, with the outer Drumlin loop open to mountain biking.
Crowe Bridge Conservation Area features small cascading drops that create a swimming spot at the weir dam, with the Crowe River flowing over the rocks to form a shallow pool suited to kids and adults. The Trent River supports easy flatwater paddling between locks.
In Stirling itself, families can visit the Stirling Festival Theatre, the Farmtown Park heritage museum, and local dairies and chocolate shops in nearby Campbellford.

The camping season in this part of Ontario is short and demand-driven. Ferris Provincial Park typically operates from early May to mid-October, and most private parks in the Stirling area follow a similar May-through-October window. Shoulder-season nights in May and October can drop below freezing, so RV renters should confirm that water systems will be usable during their dates.
July and August are the peak booking window, with weekends and long weekends filling quickly at both provincial and private parks. Reservations for Ferris Provincial Park can be made up to five months before the arrival date, and travelers targeting Canada Day, Civic Holiday, or Labour Day weekends should book right at the five-month mark.
Fall brings cooler nights, fewer bugs, and strong colour through the hardwoods along the Trent and Crowe rivers. Winter closes campgrounds in the area, though day-use trails at Ferris remain open for hiking and snowshoeing.

Lisa and Manny were amazing to deal with . They responded quickly and were very helpful in answering any questions we had. The trailer was exactly what we needed to make our camping weekend an enjoyable one !!!!
Brent M. - Sep 2026
Lisa and Manny are wonderful hosts, explain everything in detail. Trailer tows beautifully. I had no issues with the trailer at all. I would suggest bringing a mattress topper because the Murphy bed mattress is not as thick as a regular mattress.

Ryan and Ashley are great to communicate with and flexible regarding delivery and pick up. They provided a great run through of the trailer. The trailer was perfect for our stay at Sandbanks and was fully stocked with all the necessary accessories. Would definitely rent again!
Ellie L. - Sep 2026
Wonderful experience booking and staying in this rental. The hosts were great at corresponding before our trip, and after we arrived they were helpful setting up and explaining the amenities. They were extremely flexible with delivery - it did not go unappreciated (especially when you're traveling with little ones). Thank you, Ryan & Ashley!!

How to book campgrounds near Stirling
Provincial park sites are handled through a single system. Ferris Provincial Park is booked through the Ontario Parks reservation website or the toll-free reservation line. Sites can be reserved up to five months in advance of the arrival date, with new inventory released at 7:00 a.m. Eastern Time, so setting a reminder for that release is the most reliable way to secure a summer weekend.
Private parks in the Stirling area, including Island Park RV Resort, Great Canadian Resorts & Campgrounds, and Heritage Trails Campground, are booked directly with the operator by phone or through their websites. Seasonal sites often lock up early in the year, leaving overnight and weekly inventory for transient RV renters.
Day-use sites like Crowe Bridge Conservation Area do not accept overnight RV stays; plan them as excursions from a nearby campground.
What to expect on-site
Private parks close to Stirling generally offer serviced RV sites with electric, water, and in many cases sewer hookups, along with laundry, showers, and family amenities. Site sizes vary, so renters bringing larger Class A or fifth-wheel rigs should confirm length and slide-out clearances when booking.
Ferris Provincial Park is more rustic. It has over 150 car-camping sites across two loops, Valleyview and Bedrock, accommodating equipment from tents to large trailers, with roughly 40 electrical sites split between the two loops. There are no water hookups at individual campsites; potable water taps and a trailer sanitation station are located near the gatehouse.
Swimming is not offered at Ferris because of strong and unpredictable currents on the Trent River near Ranney Falls, so families wanting a swim day typically drive to Crowe Bridge or the municipal pool in Campbellford.

Frequently asked questions about campgrounds near Stirling, ON
How much does it cost to rent an RV in Stirling, Ontario?
RV rental in Stirling is one of the most affordable ways to explore Eastern Ontario's Hastings County countryside. Expect roughly $120 to $200 per night for a travel trailer, $180 to $260 for a Class C motorhome, and $1,200 to $1,600 per week for a campervan rental in Stirling. Hosts set their own pricing, so shoulder season trips in May, June, or September typically run 20 to 30 percent cheaper than peak July and August dates. For a cheap RV rental in Stirling, filter by travel trailer (you provide the tow vehicle), book mid week, and look for hosts offering free local delivery. Pro tip: booking 8 to 10 weeks ahead of Sandbanks weekends locks in the best rates before summer demand kicks in.
destinationontario.com/en-ca/articles/rving-ontario-for-beginnersWhat driver's licence do I need to rent an RV in Stirling, Ontario?
Good news: a standard Class G Ontario driver's licence is all you need to rent an RV in Stirling for the vast majority of vehicles on RVezy. In Ontario, a full Class G covers motorhomes and trailer combinations up to 11,000 kg, which includes virtually every Class B campervan, Class C motorhome, and travel trailer listed locally. To book on RVezy, approved drivers must generally be 25 or older, and ID is verified securely through the platform. Visiting from out of country? A valid licence from your home country works for short visits, paired with an International Driving Permit if your licence isn't in English or French. No CDL or special test required.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039008774-Understanding-approved-driver-requirementsIs my RV rental in Stirling covered if something goes wrong?
Yes, every RV rental in Stirling, Ontario booked through RVezy includes a renter protection plan plus 24/7 roadside assistance, so you can hit Highway 401 toward Toronto or Highway 7 toward Ottawa with real peace of mind. RVezy offers multiple protection plan tiers that cover damage to the RV during your trip, and you choose the coverage level that fits your trip and budget during checkout. That means if a stone chips a windshield on County Road 14 or a tire goes flat on the way to Sandbanks, support is one phone call away.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat happens if I need to cancel my Stirling RV rental?
Booking your RV rental in Stirling is low risk. RVezy sets the cancellation policy (not individual hosts), and bookings include a money-back grace period right after booking so you can lock in your dates with confidence. Cancellation outcomes depend on factors like how far in advance you cancel before your trip start date. Full details are available on the RVezy Help Center, and the RVezy customer support team can walk you through your specific situation. Pro tip: message your host before booking with any trip questions so you start your Stirling RV trip feeling fully informed and prepared.
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 Stirling, Ontario?
Absolutely, plenty of pet-friendly RV rental options in Stirling welcome dogs and cats. Just use the Pet-Friendly filter on RVezy when searching, and message the host to share your pet's size and any specific needs. Your four-legged co-pilot will love it here: Oak Lake just 3 km outside town has dog-friendly shorelines, and the trails at King's Mill Conservation Area along Squires Creek are perfect for a leashed wander. Most Ontario Provincial Parks (including nearby Presqu'ile and Ferris) allow leashed pets on most campsites and trails, though some beaches are off-limits to dogs. Bring proof of rabies vaccination if you're crossing into the US, a poop-bag stash, and a tie-out for the campsite.
ontarioparks.ca/things-to-know/petsCan the RV be delivered to my campsite near Stirling?
Yes, RV delivery in Stirling is a game changer, especially if it's your first time renting an RV. Many local hosts will drive the RV directly to your campsite at Island Park Campground on the Trent River, Oak Lake Resort, or even your driveway, level it, hook up water and power, and walk you through every system before they leave. That means zero towing experience required, no parking stress, and you start your vacation already set up by the campfire. Use the Delivery filter on RVezy to see which hosts deliver to your destination, and message ahead to confirm the delivery fee (typically based on distance from the host's location). It's the easiest way to do a stress-free Stirling RV trip.
hastingscounty.com/adventures/our-communities/stirling-rawdonHow far can I travel on an RV road trip from Stirling?
Stirling sits in a sweet spot for an RV road trip from Stirling, with iconic Ontario destinations all within an easy day's drive. Prince Edward County and Sandbanks Provincial Park are just 55 km south (about 50 minutes), the Kawartha Lakes are 60 to 90 km west, Algonquin Provincial Park's south gate is about 220 km north (3 hours), Ottawa is 250 km east (2.5 hours), and Toronto sits 175 km west (just over 2 hours via Highway 401). Mileage policies vary by listing, so check the daily kilometre allowance before you book. Pro tip: many hosts offer RV rental with unlimited mileage upgrades or discounted extra-kilometre packages, just message them directly to discuss your route.
ontario.ca/page/driving-ontarioWhere are the best campgrounds near Stirling, Ontario?
You have fantastic options for RV camping in Stirling within a short drive. Island Park RV Resort on the Trent River (about 6 km from downtown) offers waterfront sites, swimming, and fishing. Oak Lake Resort just 3 km from Stirling sits on a spring-fed lake with a sandy beach. Ferris Provincial Park near Campbellford (about 25 km west) features the Ranney Gorge Suspension Bridge and 156 forested sites. Presqu'ile Provincial Park on Lake Ontario near Brighton (40 km south) has waterfront sites and exceptional birdwatching. For a destination weekend, Sandbanks Provincial Park (60 km south) is legendary for its dune beaches. Pro tip: provincial park sites at Sandbanks book out in minutes when reservations open 5 months ahead, set a calendar alert for 7 AM EST on your target date.
ontarioparks.ca/park/ferrisWhen is the best time to visit Stirling for an RV trip?
Late May through early October is the sweet spot for RV camping in Stirling. Summer (late June through August) brings warm days averaging 25 to 27°C with comfortable nights around 16°C, perfect for the Trent River and Oak Lake. September and early October are arguably the best kept secret: crisp 15 to 20°C days, brilliant maple foliage across Hastings County, and far fewer crowds at Sandbanks. May offers great pricing and budding greenery, though nights still dip near 8°C, so a heated RV is a plus. Pro tip: time your Stirling RV trip with the Stirling Agricultural Fair in August or the Water Buffalo & More Food Festival for a true taste of small-town Hastings County.
weather.gc.ca/en/location/index.html?coords=44.297,-77.548I've never driven an RV before. Will I be okay renting one in Stirling?
You're going to do great, first time renting an RV in Stirling is genuinely easier than most people expect. Every RVezy host gives you a full walkthrough at pickup: how to use the propane stove, switch the fridge between battery and shore power, dump the tanks, extend the awning, and operate the slide-outs. They'll answer every question, and you can text them mid-trip if something comes up. Stirling's quiet rural roads (think County Road 14 and Highway 14) are forgiving for new drivers, no city traffic, no tight downtowns. Start with a Class C or smaller travel trailer for easier handling. Pro tip: do a short practice loop around the Stirling Fairgrounds parking lot before heading out to camp.
ontario.ca/page/driving-recreational-vehicle-rvWhat if I break down during my Stirling RV trip?
You're covered. Every RVezy booking includes 24/7 roadside assistance as part of the renter protection plan, so a flat tire on Highway 401, a dead battery near Sandbanks, or a propane issue at Island Park is one phone call away from help. The roadside team can dispatch tow service, jumpstart, lockout assistance, or fuel delivery across Eastern Ontario. Your host is also a phone call or message away for vehicle-specific questions like locating the spare tire or resetting the inverter. Pro tip: before pulling out of the host's driveway, save the RVezy support number, the roadside assistance number, and your host's contact in your phone, and snap photos of the fuse panel and tire pressure sticker, just in case.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailCan I take my Stirling RV rental across the US border or to Quebec?
Cross-border and inter-provincial travel from Stirling is often possible, but it depends on the individual host and their insurance coverage. Ontario licences are valid across Canada and all 50 US states, so the driving side is straightforward. Popular routes include heading east to Montreal (about 350 km, 3.5 hours) or south through the Thousand Islands Bridge into Upstate New York. Important: travel to Mexico is not permitted on any RVezy rental because insurance coverage does not extend there. Always message the host before booking to confirm cross-border permission, and bring a copy of the vehicle ownership and insurance for the border crossing. Pro tip: bring passports for everyone in your party and a written letter of permission from the owner for US Customs.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039340074-Insurance-coverage-validityWhat should I budget for fuel on a Stirling RV trip?
Fuel is usually the biggest variable cost on a Stirling RV trip. Regular gasoline in Ontario typically ranges around $1.45 to $1.65 per litre, with diesel often slightly higher, so check current prices before you go. Class B campervans average roughly 12 to 15 L/100 km, Class C motorhomes around 18 to 24 L/100 km, and Class A motorhomes 25 to 30 L/100 km. For a typical 300 km Stirling-to-Sandbanks-and-back weekend in a Class C, budget roughly $90 to $120 in fuel. The closest fuel stations are right in Stirling on West Front Street, and prices in smaller Hastings County towns are often a few cents cheaper than Toronto. Pro tip: fill up in Belleville or Trenton on your way back to Highway 401, those stations consistently price lower than highway rest stops.
ontario.ca/page/gas-pricesHow far in advance should I book a campground near Stirling?
For a stress-free trip, book Ontario Provincial Park sites the moment the 5-month reservation window opens at 7:00 AM EST through the Ontario Parks reservation system. Sandbanks waterfront sites sell out in minutes, so set a calendar reminder. Private campgrounds like Island Park RV Resort and Oak Lake Resort typically open seasonal bookings in February or March and fill summer weekends by April. For weekday or shoulder-season trips, you can often find availability just a week or two out. Pro tip: if Sandbanks is fully booked, try nearby Presqu'ile or Ferris Provincial Parks, both offer beautiful sites within a 45-minute drive of Stirling and are much easier to reserve last minute.
reservations.ontarioparks.ca/What are the roads like for driving an RV around Stirling?
Driving is refreshingly easy here. Stirling-Rawdon is a rural township with wide rural roads, gentle terrain, and minimal traffic, perfect for getting comfortable in a motorhome rental in Stirling. Highway 14 connects Stirling to Highway 401 (the main east-west artery), and County Road 14 runs north into cottage country. Watch for occasional farm equipment on rural roads in spring and fall, deer at dawn and dusk, and the historic single-lane bridges around Trent Hills. Winter brings snow and ice from December through March, so plan around forecasts if you're booking a shoulder-season trip. Pro tip: avoid the narrow downtown streets around Mill Street and West Front Street with larger Class A motorhomes, park on the outskirts and walk into the village to visit the Stirling Creamery.
511on.ca/What amenities should I expect at campgrounds near Stirling?
Campgrounds near Stirling cover the full spectrum. Private parks like Island Park RV Resort and Oak Lake Resort offer full hookups (water, 30/50-amp electric, and sewer), hot showers, laundry, Wi-Fi, and swimming areas. Ontario Provincial Parks like Sandbanks, Ferris, and Presqu'ile have a mix of electrical and non-electrical sites, comfort stations with flush toilets and showers, water taps throughout, and centralized dump stations (Sandbanks has three). Most campgrounds allow campfires when there's no fire ban. Pro tip: fill your fresh-water tank before leaving the host or at the campground entrance station, and dump grey/black tanks at the dump station on your way out, most Ontario parks let registered campers dump for free, while non-campers pay a small fee.
ontarioparks.ca/camping/servicesWhat's inside a typical RV rental from Stirling?
Most RV rentals in Stirling come fully equipped so you can move in and start camping. Expect comfortable sleeping for 2 to 8 (queen beds, bunks, and convertible dinettes), a full kitchen with fridge/freezer, propane stove, microwave, sink, and cookware, plus a bathroom with toilet, sink, and shower in everything except small campervans. Class C motorhomes and larger units include air conditioning, furnace heat, TV, and often a generator for off-grid power. Travel trailers come with seatbelt-equipped tow vehicles only when the host provides one, otherwise you bring your own tow vehicle. Pro tip: check the listing's amenities checklist for Wi-Fi hotspots, bike racks, and outdoor speakers, then message your host for any specifics like high chairs or extra bedding.
destinationontario.com/en-ca/articles/rving-ontario-for-beginnersWhat add-ons and pickup options can I expect with a Stirling RV rental?
RVezy hosts in Stirling often offer add-ons that turn a basic booking into a fully stocked adventure: linen and bedding packages ($40 to $80), camp chairs and outdoor mats, generators, propane tanks pre-filled, bike racks, kayaks, and even Starlink Wi-Fi. Delivery and setup is hugely popular here (great for campers heading straight to Sandbanks or Ferris) and pricing is usually based on the kilometres from the host's location. Mileage policies vary, many hosts include 200 to 400 km per day with extra kilometres at $0.30 to $0.50 each, and some offer unlimited mileage packages. Pro tip: bundle add-ons when you message your host before booking, hosts often discount the package rate compared to ordering items individually.
hastingscounty.com/adventures/our-communities/stirling-rawdonHow does payment and the security deposit work for renting an RV in Stirling?
Payment is simple and secure: you pay through the RVezy platform with a credit card, never directly to the host in cash, so your booking is protected from start to finish. Hosts set a refundable security deposit that is separate from the booking payment. The deposit is pre-authorized on your card before pickup and released after a successful return inspection, as long as the RV comes back clean, with tanks dumped per the rental agreement and no new damage. Pro tip: take dated photos and a short video walkaround of the RV at both pickup and drop-off, including the interior and tire condition, it's the easiest way to keep your security deposit refund smooth and fast.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038106214-How-the-security-deposit-worksCan I rent an RV in Stirling during winter or shoulder season?
Yes, winter and shoulder-season RV rental in Stirling, Ontario is absolutely possible and increasingly popular for ice fishing on Oak Lake, snowmobile trips on the Eastern Ontario Trails network, and quiet maple-syrup-season getaways in March and April. Stirling winters average -10 to -1°C with regular snowfall, so look for listings advertised as four-season RVs with heated holding tanks, enclosed underbellies, and reliable furnaces. Many private campgrounds close from late October to April, but Ferris Provincial Park offers winter camping, and several RVezy hosts deliver to private rural properties so you can plug into shore power. Pro tip: message hosts directly to ask about winter readiness, antifreeze in the lines, skirting, and supplemental electric heaters make a huge difference in comfort.
