Lions Lookout

Consider yourself in the neighborhood of Algonquin, free admission, parking, access to a public beach and multiple trails, you can spend a whole day with your family. Echo rock and quartz elements are the main highlights on solitaire trail. Just make sure you bring your own drinks and food cause there aren't any food retailers on site. On site long Beach are for cottage guests only. Good alternative if you are staying nearby.

Peace, quite and beautiful scenery with very few people (probably due to much higher costs than provincial parks). Easy to get a campsite when everything else is booked. Sites are fantastic, and quite far from each other. Each campsite has its own toilet, but no showers anywhere. Trails are well maintained and mostly empty. Day visits 9 to 5 are free.

Contrary to the website, there was a single porta-potty at the main entrance. Did the Solitaire trail. Well marked except the bit to Quartz Rock which looks like a separate trail but is actually the Solitaire trail.Very quiet. Very few people.
