Meet Your Hosts
CloseThe Parry Sound KOA "is the best thing that could ever happen to us," Michelle Berry said of her family's purchase of their second generation campground. Michelle and Don and their two sons enjoy winter activities as a family and work together in the campground during the summer. "It really has been a good change."
They sold their family farm south of Toronto in 1999, and since her parents knew they were looking at resorts and other business opportunities, they approached the couple with the idea of buying the KOA. The deal came together in less than two months. Don had worked in the forestry division of the Ministry of Transportation, and Michelle was trained as a registered lab technologist.
The Berry's take pride in welcoming guests to a friendly campground, and they live in a home on the grounds. The surroundings are beautiful and the campground is near many recreational opportunities. They've made a lot of changes at the campground, including a new front office, new computer systems, revamping the store and adding a large recreation hall. Their boys are learning about the business and the values of hard work. They already talk about the day when they can run the campground, she added.
The family loves living north of Toronto, where they get a lot of snow and enjoy winter activities such as hockey, ice fishing and snowmobiling. "It is our family time," she said, adding that she and Don are also very involved as volunteers at school.
Campers at the Parry Sound KOA really enjoy the recreational opportunities associated with the prime campground location. It is right next to the Trans Canada Trail, a multi-use trail that is open to four-wheelers, dirt bikes, walking, horseback riding and biking. The campground serves as a base for a variety of recreation enthusiasts who use the trail, which will soon link two of the largest provincial parks in Ontario. "We're in the middle and it's going to be a wonderful trail," she added.
