Camping near Temiskaming Shores
Temiskaming Shores sits on the western shore of Lake Temiskaming in northeastern Ontario, formed by the amalgamated communities of Haileybury, New Liskeard, and Dymond. The city serves as a service hub for a rural region of farms, lakes, and Canadian Shield forest, and its campgrounds cluster along the lakeshore and nearby bays.
RV travellers typically choose between small private lakeside operations close to town and larger provincial parks farther out. Maiden Bay Camp and Sutton Bay Park are within a short drive of the city core and offer waterfront sites on Lake Temiskaming, while Portage Bay Lodge and Happy Holiday Campground And Cottages sit farther south toward Temagami. Across the Quebec border, Camping Le P'tit Paradis provides an additional option within roughly a half-hour drive.
The area functions as a base for exploring Devil's Rock, lake views from the Haileybury waterfront, and the silver-mining heritage towns of Cobalt and Haileybury. Highway 11 provides straightforward RV access from North Bay to the south and Kirkland Lake to the north.
Things to do around Temiskaming Shores
Lake Temiskaming dominates the local activity mix. Swimming, boating, kayaking, and shore fishing for walleye and pike are standard at most waterfront campgrounds, and Haileybury has a lifeguarded beach on the lakeshore. The Devil's Rock hiking trail south of Haileybury climbs to a cliff-top viewpoint over the lake and is a common half-day outing.
On rainy days, families typically visit the Haileybury Heritage Museum, the Cobalt Mining Museum, and Thornloe Cheese. Cyclists use the paved waterfront trail linking the three former communities. ATV and side-by-side riders access an extensive trail network through surrounding crown land, and anglers can push north to the Blanche River or west to Elk Lake for less-pressured water.

The practical RV season runs from mid-May through mid-October. Private campgrounds around Lake Temiskaming generally open once the ice is off the lake and close before hard freeze. Ontario Parks operating seasons in the region follow a similar pattern, with most northeastern parks running from the Victoria Day long weekend through Thanksgiving.
July and August are the reliable warm-weather months and the busiest for family travel, with long daylight hours and lake temperatures suitable for swimming. Late spring brings blackflies and mosquitoes, heaviest for two to three weeks after leaf-out, so bug protection is essential. September delivers cooler nights, thinner crowds, and fall colour through the maples and birches by the second half of the month.
Winter camping is limited. Most private parks close for the season, and while a handful of Ontario provincial parks offer winter access, the closest options require a drive. Snow cover typically holds from late November through March.

We planned a last minute trip to visit with family and Jen & Chris were absolutely amazing in accomodating our rental. Jen answered all questions quickly and they both truly went above and beyond to make our stay incredible. The trailer was completely set up when we arrived and I sincerely appreciated all the extra touches that made this a home away from home. I would not hesitate to book with them again in the future, hopefully next time will be planned a bit further in advance.

Very nice and clean trailer I will rent it again for sure

Perfect vehicle for our needs. Thank you so much.

How to book campgrounds near Temiskaming Shores
Private campgrounds around Temiskaming Shores, including Maiden Bay Camp, Sutton Bay Park, Portage Bay Lodge, Happy Holiday Campground And Cottages, and Camping Le P'tit Paradis, are booked directly with the operator by phone, email, or their own website. Waterfront and full-hookup sites at these smaller parks are limited, so requesting a specific site type well ahead of long weekends is advisable.
Provincial parks in the surrounding region are reserved through the Ontario Parks system. Reservations are accepted up to five months in advance of the arrival date, so a booking for June 15 becomes available on January 15. The reservation window opens at 7 a.m. Eastern Time on the qualifying morning, and popular summer weekend dates can move quickly.
What to expect at Temiskaming Shores campgrounds
Sites near Temiskaming Shores range from serviced waterfront pads with 30-amp power, water, and sewer to unserviced back-in sites in wooded settings. Cell coverage is generally reliable in and near the city and along Highway 11, but drops off quickly on secondary roads and lakeshore properties.
Lake Temiskaming is a long, narrow lake and can be exposed and choppy in strong winds, so campgrounds tucked into protected bays offer calmer swimming and paddling conditions. Bears are present throughout the region, so standard food storage practices apply. Grocery, fuel, propane, and RV supplies are available in New Liskeard and Haileybury, and a hospital serves the area, which is useful for travellers coming from more remote parks to the north.

Frequently asked questions about campgrounds near Temiskaming Shores, ON
How much does an RV rental in Temiskaming Shores typically cost?
RV rental in Temiskaming Shores is affordable compared to busier Ontario destinations. On RVezy, travel trailers typically start around $125 to $175 per night, while motorhome rental in Temiskaming Shores generally ranges from $200 to $300 per night, with larger Class A units priced higher. To find a cheap RV rental in Temiskaming Shores, target shoulder season in late May or September when Lake Temiskaming is still beautiful and demand drops. Many local hosts offer weekly discounts for stays of five nights or more. Pro tip: book a weekday pickup, since Friday and Saturday handovers around New Liskeard tend to fill up fastest during peak July weekends.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Temiskaming%20Shores%2C%20OntarioDo I need a special licence to rent an RV in Temiskaming Shores, Ontario?
Good news: a standard Ontario Class G driver's licence is all you need for almost every RV rental in Temiskaming Shores. That covers motorhomes and trailers up to 11,000 kilograms, which includes virtually every Class B campervan, Class C motorhome, travel trailer and fifth wheel listed on RVezy in the region. Visiting from another province, a US state, or overseas? Your valid home licence works under Ontario's reciprocity rules, with an International Driving Permit recommended if it is not in English or French. RVezy guests must generally be at least 25 and complete a quick ID verification. That is the entire checklist, no road test or endorsement required.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039008774-Understanding-approved-driver-requirementsWhat protection and roadside coverage is included with my Temiskaming Shores RV rental?
Every RV rental in Temiskaming Shores booked through RVezy includes a renter protection plan and 24/7 roadside assistance, so you can head out toward Lake Temiskaming with real peace of mind. The protection plan helps cover damage to the RV during your trip, and you can choose from different coverage levels at checkout to match your route and comfort level. If you get a flat on Highway 11 between New Liskeard and Temagami or your battery dies at Bucke Park, one call brings help to you. Coverage details and limits are shown clearly during booking, so first-timers can book with confidence.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat happens if I need to cancel my Temiskaming Shores RV trip?
Booking is low risk because RVezy sets a consistent cancellation policy across listings, not the host. There is a money-back grace period right after you book, and after that window your refund depends on how far out your trip starts. If the host cancels, you are refunded or offered travel credit. Because the policy is set at the platform level, it stays consistent across every RV rental in Temiskaming Shores. If plans change, contact RVezy support directly and they will walk you through your options, so you can book your Lake Temiskaming getaway with confidence.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037736674-Understanding-the-cancellation-policy-for-guestsCan I bring my dog on a Temiskaming Shores RV trip?
Absolutely, a pet-friendly RV rental in Temiskaming Shores is easy to find on RVezy: just toggle the Pet-Friendly filter when you search and you'll see every owner who welcomes furry co-pilots. Many local hosts charge a small cleaning fee or refundable pet deposit, which is shown upfront in your booking. Once you arrive, you've got great options to roam: Bucke Park Campground in south Haileybury is pet-friendly, and the Devil's Rock hiking trail south of Cobalt is a favourite leashed-dog day hike with jaw-dropping cliffside views over Lake Temiskaming. Pro tip: pack a tick check brush, since wooded Northern Ontario trails are prime tick habitat from May through September.
temiskamingshores.ca/en/visiting/bucke-park-campground.aspxCan the RV be delivered to my campground in Temiskaming Shores?
Yes, RV delivery in Temiskaming Shores is one of the most popular options on RVezy, especially for first-timers who'd rather skip towing a trailer up Highway 11 from the south. Many local hosts will drop the RV at Bucke Park, Sutton Bay Park, or Finlayson Point Provincial Park in nearby Temagami, level it, hook up the power, and walk you through every system before they leave. You just show up with groceries and your fishing rod. Delivery fees vary by distance, with most hosts quoting a flat rate inside the Tri-Town area (Haileybury, New Liskeard, Cobalt). Filter listings by Delivery and message the host to confirm your specific campsite.
ontarioparks.ca/park/finlaysonpointHow far can I drive from Temiskaming Shores on my rental, and is mileage included?
Most hosts offering RV rental in Temiskaming Shores include generous daily kilometre allowances, and quite a few offer an RV rental with unlimited mileage for road-trippers. Distance limits and any per-kilometre overage fees are shown upfront on the listing before you book, so there are no surprises. From Temiskaming Shores you can comfortably reach Temagami (about 60 km south on Highway 11), North Bay (around 150 km), Sudbury (roughly 300 km), or cross the Quebec border to Ville-Marie in under 40 minutes. Pro tip: if you're planning a longer Northeastern Ontario loop, message the host before booking to ask about extending the kilometre cap at a friendly rate.
ontario.ca/page/driving-recreational-vehicle-rvWhere are the best campgrounds for RV camping in Temiskaming Shores?
You've got a great mix of waterfront and wilderness options for RV camping in Temiskaming Shores. Bucke Park Campground sits on the southern edge of Haileybury with 42 sites, full washrooms, and direct lake access. Sutton Bay Park, about 8 km from town, offers serviced sites right on Lake Temiskaming. Just over an hour south, Finlayson Point Provincial Park in Temagami has 117 sites (33 with electrical), a dump station, and access to 2,400 km of canoe routes. Maiden Bay Camp in North Cobalt and Marten River Provincial Park (about 86 km south) round out the best campgrounds near Temiskaming Shores. Book Ontario Parks sites the day reservations open on February 1 for prime July weekends.
ontarioparks.ca/park/finlaysonpointWhen is the best time of year for an RV trip in Temiskaming Shores?
The sweet spot for a Temiskaming Shores RV trip runs from late May through mid-September, when daytime highs sit between 20°C and 26°C and Lake Temiskaming is warm enough to swim. July is the warmest month with averages around 19°C and highs that can hit 27°C, perfect for Haileybury Beach. Late September brings spectacular fall colours along the Highway 11 corridor and far fewer bugs, plus lower rental prices. Winters are frigid (January averages around -13°C), so most campgrounds close by Thanksgiving. Local insider tip: aim for the last two weeks of August. The blackflies are gone, the water is still warm, and you'll have your pick of waterfront campsites at Finlayson Point.
weather.gc.ca/en/location/index.html?coords=47.494%2C-79.715I've never driven an RV before. Will I be okay in the Temiskaming Shores area?
You'll be in great shape, even if it's your first time renting an RV. Every RVezy host gives you a hands-on walkthrough at pickup covering driving tips, the propane system, water tanks, and the awning, and they're a text away during your trip. Better yet, the roads around Temiskaming Shores are an ideal training ground: Highway 11 between Cobalt, Haileybury, and New Liskeard is wide, flat, and lightly trafficked compared to Southern Ontario. There are no mountain passes, low bridges, or tight downtown maneuvers required to reach the lakefront. Pro tip: book a Class C motorhome rental in Temiskaming Shores for your first trip. They handle like a big van and the cabover bed is a hit with kids.
ontario.ca/page/driving-recreational-vehicle-rvWhat happens if something breaks down during my trip?
You are never on your own. Every RV rental in Temiskaming Shores booked through RVezy includes 24/7 roadside assistance with the renter protection plan, covering common issues like flat tires, dead batteries, lockouts, and tows. Cell coverage along Highway 11 from New Liskeard through Temagami is generally solid, and you can reach RVezy support directly through the app from anywhere with a signal. Your host is also the best first call for quirks they know well, like a finicky water pump or a specific propane valve. Pro tip: snap photos at pickup of every gauge, hookup, and storage bay. It saves time if you ever need remote troubleshooting from a campsite at Bucke Park.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat are the best RV road trips from Temiskaming Shores?
An RV road trip from Temiskaming Shores opens up some of Northern Ontario's best scenery. The Lake Temiskaming Loop is the classic: cross at the Highway 65 bridge into Quebec, follow Route 101 north to Notre-Dame-du-Nord, then drop south along the Quebec shore to Ville-Marie (about 240 km round trip). Head south on Highway 11 to Temagami (60 km) for canoe country, then continue to North Bay (150 km). Algonquin Provincial Park is roughly a 4-hour drive southeast, and Sudbury's Science North sits about 300 km southwest. Cross-border tip: travel into Quebec is straightforward with your RVezy rental; trips to the US may be allowed but always confirm with your host first.
northernontario.travel/rv-canada/rving-timiskaming-lake-loopHow should I budget for fuel on a Temiskaming Shores RV trip?
Fuel is the biggest variable cost, so it pays to plan. Class B campervans typically deliver 18-22 mpg (about 11-13 L/100 km), Class C motorhomes average 10-14 mpg (17-23 L/100 km), and big Class A coaches drop to around 8 mpg. Gas in Northeastern Ontario tends to run slightly higher than the Toronto area, with stations in New Liskeard, Haileybury, and Temagami being your most reliable fill-ups. For a typical 4-day loop around Lake Temiskaming covering 500 km in a Class C, budget roughly $150-$200 CAD in fuel. Pro tip: top up in New Liskeard before heading north; prices climb noticeably once you pass Earlton toward Kirkland Lake.
ontario.ca/page/gasoline-pricesHow far in advance should I book campgrounds near Temiskaming Shores?
Book early and you'll get the best waterfront sites. Ontario Parks reservations open exactly five months ahead of your arrival date through the Ontario Parks Reservation Service, and prime electric sites at Finlayson Point Provincial Park and Marten River Provincial Park for July long weekends often sell out within the first hour. Private campgrounds like Bucke Park, Sutton Bay Park, and Happy Holiday Campground take direct bookings and typically have more flexibility, but still aim for 6-8 weeks ahead for summer weekends. Local insider tip: midweek arrivals (Sunday or Monday) are far easier to score, and Finlayson Point honours Ontario Parks' reciprocity for valid camping permits if you're hopping between provincial parks.
reservations.ontarioparks.ca/What are driving conditions like around Temiskaming Shores?
Driving around Temiskaming Shores is refreshingly easy compared to bigger Ontario cities. Highway 11 is a wide, well-maintained two-lane corridor connecting Cobalt, Haileybury, and New Liskeard, with passing lanes added regularly. There's no traffic congestion, no toll roads, and no urban height clearance worries. The main local hazards to watch for are wildlife (moose are genuinely common at dawn and dusk, especially north of Temagami), sudden summer thunderstorms, and gravel shoulders on side roads heading toward boat launches. In shoulder season, watch for early frost on bridges. Local insider tip: avoid driving Highway 11 at night between May and October. Moose strikes peak around sunset, and an RV's higher profile makes daylight driving the smart choice.
511on.ca/What amenities can I expect at Temiskaming Shores campgrounds?
Expect more than you'd think for Northern Ontario. Bucke Park Campground has modern washrooms with hot showers, a small store with firewood and snacks, and serviced RV sites. Sutton Bay Park offers full hookups (water, 30-amp power, sewer) right on Lake Temiskaming. Finlayson Point Provincial Park has 33 electrical sites (15/30 amp), potable water taps, a sanitary dump station, comfort stations with showers, and laundry. Most private campgrounds in the region also have Wi-Fi near the office and a boat launch. Pro tip: dump stations are easy to find at Finlayson Point and most private campgrounds, but if you're boondocking off Crown land, the New Liskeard area municipal dump station is your closest reliable backup before heading home.
ontarioparks.ca/park/finlaysonpoint/campingWhat features and amenities come with RVs rented in Temiskaming Shores?
RVs available for rent in Temiskaming Shores come fully equipped for Northern Ontario adventures. Expect real beds (queen masters in most Class C motorhomes, plus cabover and dinette conversions), a kitchen with fridge, stove, microwave, and sink, a bathroom with shower and toilet, furnace, air conditioning, and seatbelted seating for travel. Many local listings also include a generator, outdoor speakers, levelling blocks, a propane BBQ, and even fishing chairs since Lake Temiskaming is a walleye hotspot. TVs and Wi-Fi boosters are common in newer rigs. Pro tip: filter by Sleeps and check the listing's amenity list closely. A family RV trip in Temiskaming Shores is much smoother in a unit with a dedicated bunkhouse rather than a convertible dinette.
destinationontario.com/en-ca/articles/rving-ontario-for-beginnersWhat add-ons and pickup options should I look for when I rent an RV in Temiskaming Shores?
Hosts offering RV rental Ontario travellers love often bundle smart add-ons that make first trips easier. Common extras around Temiskaming Shores include linen and kitchen kits ($50-$100), generator use, propane top-ups, outdoor furniture, bike racks, and fishing gear packages, with prices shown clearly during booking. Pickup is usually at the host's home in Haileybury, New Liskeard, or Cobalt, and many also offer delivery to local campgrounds or to your cottage on Lake Temiskaming. Mileage policies vary by host: some offer unlimited kilometres, while others include 200 km per day with a small fee beyond. Pro tip: ask your host to add a starter propane tank fill, since gas stations in town don't all refill cylinders.
temiskamingshores.ca/en/visiting/visiting.aspxHow does payment and the security deposit work when I rent an RV in Temiskaming Shores?
Payment is simple and secure. When you book your RV rental in Temiskaming Shores on RVezy, you pay directly through the platform using a credit card, with no cash changing hands at pickup. The security deposit is handled separately from your booking payment and is pre-authorized on your card before pickup, then released after a smooth return. To avoid issues, do a thorough walkaround with your host at pickup, take date-stamped photos of any existing scuffs or interior wear, and confirm fuel and propane levels. Pro tip: bring the same card to drop-off that you used at booking, and return the RV cleaner than you found it. Most deposit disputes start with cleaning fees.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038106214-How-the-security-deposit-worksIs winter RV camping near Temiskaming Shores possible?
It's possible and increasingly popular for adventurous travellers. Winters in Temiskaming Shores are genuinely cold (January averages around -13°C and can dip below -25°C), so look specifically for four-season RVs with heated holding tanks, enclosed underbellies, and a strong furnace. Most local campgrounds close by mid-October, but you can park at private winter-friendly sites with shore power or stage from a host's driveway for ice fishing trips on Lake Temiskaming or sledding on the OFSC trails that run right through New Liskeard. Filter listings by four-season capability and message the host about cold-weather prep. Pro tip: pair a winter rental with the Englehart-area trail network or a day trip to the Cobalt Mining Museum for a true Northern Ontario winter weekend.
