The Cardinal / Ottawa South KOA is family camping at its best. Located just an hour from Ottawa and close to the 1000 Islands region, this is the ultimate destination for eastern Ontario camping. Spend your weekends or entire vacations on our campground and enjoy a wide variety of amenities including our splash pad, pool, pirate ship playground, Big Bouncer and mini putt. The kids will enjoy our themed weekend activities, or take the family on a day trip to explore Ottawa or the St. Lawrence river area.

Our sites range from big-rig friendly 50 amp patio sites to large treed 30 amp back-in sites to our convenient deluxe cabins and lodges. Each site has a picnic table, fire ring, water source and electricity.

Get away from the noise of the highway and bustle of the city in our beautiful, quiet rural location. Nightly quiet hours between 11:00 PM and 8:00 AM provide a secure and relaxing experience for our guests.

NOTE: WE DO NOT HAVE SEWERS ON OUR SITES. WE DO HAVE A DUMPING STATION OR THE HONEY WAGON CAN COME TO YOUR SITE TO PUMP FOR A FEE OF $11.50 per dump. THE HONEY WAGON IS NOT AVAILABLE DURING MEAL TIMES OR ON SUNDAY MORNINGS WHEN WE USE IT FOR DEPARTING GUESTS.

I had read the negative reviews and must admit I was really hesitant about my family spending the weekend here. But my sister chose the spot and insisted it was lovely so I booked a site... 7/7/2019

Annual family weekend was great for children. Lots to do 7/9/2019

Local Area

Rich in history, the township of Edwardsburgh/Cardinal in Eastern Ontario sits just north of the St. Lawrence River. Cardinal is central to many historical sites, attractions and museums.

Boldt Castle is located in the 1000 Islands region of the St. Lawrence River. At the turn of the century, the castle costs $2.5 million to construct and later over $10 million to restore. It was built by George Boldt as a testament of love for his wife Louise. Never occupied, construction was halted the day she died in 1904. The castle is an opulent love story, even being built on Heart Island which Boldt made into the shape of a heart through fill he brought in by boat.

The campground is just an hour away from Ottawa, Canada's national capital. Parliament Hill, the Rideau Canal and the National Gallery of Canada are just a few of the many attractions the city offers. Learn more at the city's official tourism site.

The Upper Canada Village represents Canada in 1860 and features authentic heritage homes that were relocated during construction of the St. Lawrence Seaway. All homes are staffed by "residents" in period costume, living and working with the routines of the day. Located east of Morrisburg, approximately 20 minutes from the Cardinal.
