Campgrounds near Stone Mills

Stone Mills is a rural township in Lennox and Addington County, Ontario, north of Greater Napanee and roughly a half-hour drive from Kingston. The area sits in the Land O' Lakes region, a lake-and-forest belt that gives RV travellers easy reach to the Bay of Quinte, the Frontenac Arch, and the western edge of the Thousand Islands corridor. Most RV parks that serve Stone Mills travellers are private, family-run resorts on nearby lakes. Sun Retreats Hay Bay sits on the south shore of Hay Bay on the Bay of Quinte and is a seasonal-only resort focused on full-season RV sites and cottage ownership rather than overnight bookings. Desert Lake Family Resort is a full-service campground on the south shore of Desert Lake near Hartington, with a swimming beach, boat launch, and hookups. Woodland Park and Loughborough Lake Holiday Park Campground round out the private options closer to the lakes north of Kingston. For a more amenity-heavy stop, 1000 Islands / Kingston KOA Holiday sits just off Highway 401 north of Kingston and is the closest full-service KOA to the region.

Things to do near Stone Mills

The township itself is anchored by the Old Stone Mill in Newburgh, tied to the area's grist-milling past, and by the Hell Holes Nature Trails and Caves for hiking. Puzzle Lake Provincial Park, north of Tamworth, is a non-operating park with rock barrens, wetlands, and paddling access, but no facilities or signage. Water activities dominate the surrounding lakes. Hay Bay and the wider Bay of Quinte are known for walleye, pike, bass, and perch fishing. Desert Lake and the lakes of the Frontenac Arch support swimming, canoeing, and small-boat use. Frontenac Provincial Park, a short drive east, offers backcountry hiking and paddling routes. Kingston, the Thousand Islands cruises, and Prince Edward County wineries are all within an easy day trip.

Most private campgrounds in the Stone Mills area operate on an Ontario seasonal calendar, opening in late April or early May and closing in mid-October. Desert Lake Family Resort runs a spring-to-fall season, and 1000 Islands / Kingston KOA Holiday operates from May 1 to October 15. Sun Retreats Hay Bay is a seasonal-only park focused on full-season RV sites and cottage ownership rather than overnight bookings, so short-stay availability there is not offered. July and August are peak weeks: long weekends fill first, especially Canada Day, the August civic holiday, and Labour Day. Late May, June, and September are the easier windows to book and still offer warm-weather paddling and fishing. Winter is cold, snowy, and largely off-season for RV travel in this part of Ontario. Roads through the township are open year-round, but the private campgrounds close and services like water hookups are shut down until spring.

We rented this trailer for a 3-night camping trip as a family of three with a toddler, and overall we had a great experience. The trailer was exceptionally clean and well cared for when we picked it up. It was stocked with all the essentials we needed, and we really appreciated the thoughtful extras like movies and games for rainy days. The owners were incredibly friendly, personable, and easy to deal with throughout both the pick-up and drop-off process. The trailer itself is newer, in great condition, and made for a comfortable camping experience. The only minor downside was that we found the mattress wasn’t the most comfortable. If you’re planning a longer stay, I’d recommend bringing a foam mattress topper for a better night’s sleep. Overall, we would happily rent this trailer again and would definitely recommend it to others looking for a clean, well-equipped, and small family-friendly camping trailer.

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

Private resorts around Stone Mills each run their own reservation system. Desert Lake Family Resort, Woodland Park, and Loughborough Lake Holiday Park Campground take nightly, weekly, and seasonal bookings directly through their websites or by phone, and long weekends typically require deposits and minimum stays. Book two to three months ahead for July and August weekends. 1000 Islands / Kingston KOA Holiday reserves through the KOA website and reservation line, with check-in at noon for RV and tent sites and 3 p.m. for cabins. Sun Retreats Hay Bay handles seasonal leases and cottage sales directly with the resort, so travellers looking for a short stay should plan on the KOA or one of the lakeside resorts instead.
