Hello everyone I am looking for a campsite for both myself and my brother in-law to put a trailer and boat so we can fish. Anyone know somewhere good and fairly close to Ottawa? (within a couple hours)

check out Murphy's Point Provincial. Great docking right there and access to the Big Rideau at the deepest part(if you want to fish for lake trout). It's about 1/2 hr-45 mins out of Smith's Falls. Cheers, Fishtraks.

Murman are you looking for a seasonal place or day tripping?
What would you be fishing for.

Some of the resorts on White Lake might as well, but they're usually booked up for the season: Bayview, Cedar Cove, Pickerel Bay...

Morning Mist on the Upper O at Stonecliffe (and probably several others up that way)

Sunny Hill on Bark Lake...http://www.sunnyhillresort.com/

I believe Sand Lake in Westport and also Pike Lake on the way out of Westport towards Perth both have trailer parks / campgrounds as well as the fish species you are seeking.

Added benefits are the close proximities to both Westport and Perth, and also the multitude of other lakes a stone's throw from either Sand or Pike Lakes.

Im parking my trailer on a seasonal site at chartrand camp this year just west of Hawksbury. 70 miles of Big O to play with.

I was trying different camping places last year and I really liked the lions club park in merrikville for some bass fishing, nice lots and a good camp really close to town.
