At Saint-Simon-de-Rimouski on the 132: turn at the 'Petro Canada' gas station in direction of Saint-Mathieu-de-Rioux. Turn right at the end of the road on the '3eme rang' and then left on 'Chemin du lac Sud' (half a kilometer, at the barn on the left side of the road, right on the corner!). Just follow that road until you reach the KOA Campground.

If you plan to travel to the area, this guide contains all the information you need for a successful trip, including daily activities and a place to stay.
Here is your daily guide to attractions to visit in Bas Saint-Laurent.
Get out into nature and explore the beautiful wildlife surrounding you by visiting Hell's Gate Canyon. On both sides of the canyon, mountains stretch 90 meters (295 feet) high. A 99-meter-long (325-foot) bridge is suspended between the mountains, offering a panoramic view of the surrounding territory. You can also explore networks of walking trails around the bridge.
After a day among the trees, spend some time on the water with a whale-watching expedition. Several tours depart from Trois-Pistoles, and you can see over 80 species of whales, including minke and humpback whales. Bring your binoculars and watch out for whale spouts and fins. You can also listen for breathing and splashes through the water.
Spend a relaxing day at the Kamouraska Regional Museum. The museum, located in the old Kamouraska convent, features exhibitions that showcase the region's history. Visitors can learn everything from how residents lived and dressed to how they did business. The museum also features a boutique with locally made books, art, clothing and decor.
If you're ready to spend another day taking in Bas-Saint-Laurent's natural beauty, visit the National Hiking Trail.

Those interested in boats and submarines will enjoy a visit to the Pointe-au-Père Maritime Historic Site. At this location, you can tour the Pointe-au-Père lighthouse, a vital navigational site. You can also learn about the tragic story of the Empress of Ireland, which sank off the coast in 1914. Many relics have been recovered from the boat and now sit in the museum for visitors to view.
