Stayed in a lodge for 3 days during the week. Campground was very quiet which was great. Lodge was very clean. The fridge was changed since last year and it is much smaller. Prices are crazy expensive during the weekend, especially when we were looking at Thanksgiving so we decided to go during the week and it was much more reasonable.

Decent size lots, showers are old and takes 15 min to get hot water. Store is fairly sparse. We ordered the honeywagon service for our departure but they forgot and so we were delayed getting on the road. We were there during the week in September so it was fairly quiet.

It was a perfect place for the family. The grounds were well maintained. My only suggestion would be to vacuum the bed frames in the cabins, other wise everything was great.

The Lodge #5 was perfect! Immaculate. Smelled clean. Everything was in working order. The hosts leave a sweet little bag with K cups. The location was quiet and beside a farm field and lovely pine trees. Central base to family in Ottawa and Brockville. Took in the Aquatarium. Bonfire pit and lovely Muskoka chairs to lounge outside. Many activities. Loved Cardinal KOA!

QFacilities as washrooms, showers, pool, splashpad ... very good and clean. Dumpstation with offered connection (hose) as you have (5stars) should become Standard at every campground! Unfortunately weak (none) Internet access at the campsite.

Love the cabins. Showers good but take quite a bit of time to warm up. Bathrooms nice and clean. We had a problem with the cabin door and it was fixed almost immediately.

The only reason I didn't give a 5 star is because of the lack of safety at the entrance to the park. I think it would be much safer for kids if the entrance was closed off with a. Gate from the entrance of the park to the main office. Anyone off the main street could easily walk right into where all the kids are playing, we watch our kids but not everyone does and it's a matter of safety

Had a wonderful time camping at KOA Cardinal! The staff are friendly and helpful. There are so many great activities for the kids, as well as the pizza shack and food truck. We can't wait to return!

Visited in August, 2025. Staff are very friendly. Grounds were very clean. Campsite is quiet. This was our second visit with our granddaughter and her friend. Kids programs are fun and popular. Pool is always an attraction for the kids.

Cabins are very clean and the linen provided was adequate and also very clean. Lots of fun activities for the kids but they can be pricey. My son suggested that there be pool noodles or other flotation type toys at the pool. Staff is very friendly and helpful,Overall a great stay.

We come back to Cardinal KOA time and again because there is so much for our kiddo to do. He gets so excited to see what's on the activity board every weekend. Clean, great service, lovely sites, everything is perfect.

It was my first time at a KOA and will likely come back in the future. Was overwhelmed at all the activities and fun attractions for kids. Will recommend to all families with children for sure. Loved the band. Just a bit hard to leave when all roads are filled and packed with vehicles waiting for the dump station. Should be a through way not to wait in line if you just want to leave. Thanks

I found the facilities to be very clean (washrooms, pool, playground) even the garbage/recycling areas were very well organized and clean.

Great stay with our trailer and kids! Owners take very good care of the campsite and probably the cleanest bathrooms I’ve seen in a campsite. Activities were great for the kids and lots to do. Will be coming back soon!

Showers take forever to get warm. There was a stump in the site that made it so I had to back my trailer out of a pull through. Wifi service was excellent except that no matter what I did, I couldn’t connect to the internet. Pool has heaters but is still cold. Roads are covered with 1” coarse gravel. Should use crusher fines instead. Send help to this place.

AMAZING!!!!! This year we decided to go with a patio site and were not disappointed. Came with bbq Adirondack chairs and patio set. It was so much fun for our 3 grandkids 4 to 8 yrs. Front office stay are wonderful! Very polite, professional and friendly. Grounds are clean and well maintained. Would definitely recommend this KOA to families with children. Thank you so much for great hospitality

Great place to stay, they go over and above with coffee makers, spatula’s, towels, sheets. Staff can be a bit abrupt when it’s 8 pm closing time for the shop. But other than this, it’s a great place to camp!

Was just for one night but very impress with family focus hope to bring grand kids next summer

We were very pleased with our stay in your cabin, as it was well equipped, laid out and functional for our needs! We will definitely be returning again to visit.

We had an absolute wonderful week with our grandson. The planned activities, the staff, and everything else available kept our grandson busy during our stay. The campground is very clean, the staff are very friendly and accommodating. We felt very comfortable letting our 6yo grandson ride his bike throughout the park alone. It was a fabulous week to end summer vacation for him.

Loved our stay. Was our first time here. We will definitely be back next Summer. Our cabin was very clean. One thing I will suggest is the amount of smokers the smell comes into the cabin if you want your windows open. I am not sure if you could come up with a smoking area instead of at the sites. Just a suggestion. Thank you.

Pro's - Clean. Friendly staff. Quiet at night. Con's - Rented go-cart style bicycles on the road all day/evening and they are kept behind the office beside the road. I had to get out of my car to move a returned unit off the road. No outdoor shower at the pool. I turned off a shower in the public restroom that was left on and unattended. Maintenance area needs a fence to hide the untidy look.

The park is very well maintained and has an abundance of activities for children. We are a retired couple passing through for only one night. They boast “wireless internet available at this KOA”. We did not have good internet at all. They suggested it was due to “all the tress”. Those pine tress have been there for a long time. Don’t advertise something you don’t or can’t provide.

It was a fantastic experience. I loved the peaceful atmosphere and the friendly staff. It was a perfect place to spend quality time with my family, and we really enjoyed the good number of activities available.

Was very good, lots for kids to do. My only complaint was the flies were extreme. There were so many flies it was hard to eat outside. I understand that it is not your fault but I'm wondering if there is a way to control this.

We stayed in the high end cabins. There is no Wi-Fi that gets to the location of the cabins so I had to constantly walk to the front to get and receive messages and remotely feed and check on my cats through a Wi-Fi device. Given we paid more for the cabin I did not expect it to be so difficult to get access to Wi-Fi. All they would need to do is get a Wi-Fi extender to the cabins

Made for a great overnight stop on our travels coming from the Maritimes on our way to western Ontario.

The only thing that wasn't great was the location in that it is pretty out of the way. That being said, if you're camping, you probably don't want to be downtown anyway. Friendly staff, lots of activities for the family, and pretty peaceful.
