what to expect

Rock Point Provincial Park is known for its limestone shelf, showcasing fossils that are over 350 million years old. Whether hiking the 2km Woodlot Trail, swimming in Lake Erie, enjoying a hot meal or a cold treat at the park store, or joining a Discovery program, there are plenty of opportunities for both day use and camping visitors.

Kinsey and Niece campgrounds offer electrical campsites that can accommodate equipment ranging from tents to large trailers. Minor and Lookout campgrounds have non-electrical sites that can accommodate tents and small trailers. Amenities such as water taps, playgrounds, and comfort stations with laundry facilities are close by in all campgrounds. Three group camping sites are also available.
