Great Idea Karl!
Here are my personal Favorites, Letterman style.
10. Valens Conservation Area. Great facilities, well kept grounds and
the home of the True Canadian Winter Bus Campout.
9. Algonquin Provincial Park, Ontario. It's huge and (mostly)
unspoiled.
8. The Pinery Provincial Park, near Grand Bend Ontario. Great
scenery, good facilities and staff.
7. Heber Down Conservation Area, Brooklin, Ontario. Not for the
facilities, but because it's the site of Buses Of The Corn. August
5-7th, BTW.
6. Harper's Ferry KOA in West Virginia. Home of "John Brown's Buses"
in October.
5. Rustic Knoll Campground, Near Mt. Vernon OH. Great facilities, and
the home of the "Dixie Bus Gathering".
4. Johnston's Canyon, near Banff AB. I haven't been there in 25
years, but it was terrific in 1980.
3. Hagan Stone Park, Pleasant Garden NC. Home of "EveryBus" since 1999.
2. Haliburton Scout Reserve. Near Haliburton Ontario. Owned by the
Toronto Region Scout Group, it's members only.
1. Killbear Provincial Park, Parry Sound Ontario.
Happy trails,
Greg Potts
