The Parks Canada’s Reservation Service allows visitors to plan your trip with confidence, ease, and knowledge that you’ll have a guaranteed spot waiting for you. If your favourite campsite is booked on your preferred days, check back regularly for cancellations, or plan your visit for less busy periods like during the week or the shoulder seasons. To book a stay, please visit the Parks Canada reservations website at reservation.pc.gc.ca or call 1-877-RESERVE (1-877-737-3783).
Please remember that firewood should be purchased locally or at the park to prevent the spread of invasive species into the area. The Parks Canada team at Georgian Bay Islands National Park is excited to welcome new and returning guests back to experience everything the park has to offer.
