Stop 34, Drift Wood Provincial Park.


Beware when camping in Ontario Provincial Parks.  You can reserve an electric site and then find your connection is 30 meters from your site.  Some of the site descriptions will tell you how far it is to the outlet.  We got lucky the only time we had service, the outlet was just within reach.  Locals seem to know the drill and have long cords to reach.  

There was a nice lake at this park and we walked down to watch the sunset along with many others who were camped here.  It was just an overnight stay in a typical provincial park for Ontario.  The parks in Ontario seem to be neglected, and are not nearly as nice as parks in British Columbia.  There were plenty of sites available.
