Campgrounds and RV parks near The Nation, ON

The Nation is a rural bilingual municipality in eastern Ontario's Prescott and Russell region, roughly 45 minutes east of downtown Ottawa and about 90 minutes west of Montreal. The landscape is farmland, hardwood bush, and low rolling hills, cut by the South Nation River and bordered to the north by the Ottawa River valley. It sits within easy reach of both the Ontario provincial park system and Quebec's Sépaq network across the river. RV travellers use The Nation as a base for two very different kinds of trips: family resort camping at private parks with pools and hookups, and quieter nature stays close to wetlands and waterfront. Nearby options include Kittawa RV Resort in Limoges, Hammond Hill near Rockland, Rolling Hills Campground Ottawa, and Evergreen Camping Resort. Just across the Ottawa River in Quebec, Plaisance Provincial Park (Parc national de Plaisance) adds a Sépaq-run campground with river access. Most sites are seasonal, opening in spring and closing by mid-fall, so trip timing matters.

Private parks in the area use their own reservation systems, most often through Campspot or a direct website. Kittawa RV Resort books through Campspot and lists pull-through sites, full-hookup RV sites, and rental cottages. Hammond Hill, the eco-experience and wilderness retreat in Hammond, features campsites, cabins, and yurts and takes bookings through Campspot and its own website. Evergreen Camping Resort and Rolling Hills Campground Ottawa accept reservations through their own websites and hold a share of inventory for seasonal renters, so transient sites can be limited. Plaisance Provincial Park is operated by Sépaq, Quebec's provincial park agency, and reservations go through the Sépaq website or call centre. For summer weekends and holidays, book several weeks ahead at any park in this corridor, and earlier for waterfront or full-hookup sites.
