Wheatley Provincial Park

Length of stay: 7 nights, 8 days

Temperature: average of 25c all week

Weather: hard to tell weather from onsite
where most sky is covered by tall wooden trees.
Often times, the weather was partly sunny, partly cloudy.
Our last day, rainy. We left before the town gathered 55mm of rain.


Park Quality: Has three different campgrounds,
Bosey, Highland and Middle Creek.
Very nice and environmentally clean, in deep woods,
nearby swamps, has two wooden bridges to go across to the beach,
beach has many fallen trees showing from top to roots, looking natural and artistic,
a few spots of poison ivy plants and plenty of various green, green plants.
Surrounded by various spiders, especially long legged ones and
raccoons who are our true thieves :)


Our Site Quality: (#47) our original site was #---,
we couldn't imagine staying on that site for a whole week.
Asked for a recommended site. #47, it was.
Awesome, beautiful, luxurious size and perfect for a week stay.
Spotted grass, more dirt, under tall wooden trees, fully shaded,
a bit of sun rays through on the edges,
perfect design for separating rooms from two-three tents,
to kitchen, to sheltered tent, to bon fire area
and our personal access to drinkable water tap.
A minute walk to the comfort station for shower and bathroom.
Near a walking trail to the bridge to the beach.
I could go on about our site.
Best site ever in my whole camping experience before this blog :)



Quality of workers: Once in a while, seen driving by our site. Friendly staff at office. When approached, gentle and easy-going.

Quality of neighbours: had no neighbours, but one far down our path.
Great privacy for a week, until weekend came...
nearly all neighboured sites were booked
but hardly seen them. Our site is well hidden :)

Attractions: Colasanti's Garden and Pelee Island were two
of several attractions we went to. Good choices!
Will tell you why with pictures and tales to come!
Another part of the attractions we wanted to try,
but didn't -- a beautiful golf course just right in front of the Park.
Beautiful course from our view, didn't go....
no desire to play golfing at the moment but do other things.
