Campsites near Niagra Falls

Posted by AJ Palmer on August 19, 2009

Niagra Falls

Niagra Falls

Do you like to go camping, and want to see Niagara Falls?  Do you think you have to choose one or the other?  Well, you can do both at Jelleystone Park, in Ontario, Canada.  Did that sound too much like a commercial?  Sorry.  I went to Niagara Falls on my honeymoon years ago, and I had a great time.  It is a enormous touist destination for couples and families.  However, I paid quite a bit for a bed and breakfast, and the area itself is rather touristy so the hotel prices are higher than normal.  But the cost at Jelleystone is;

  • $36-40 for a tent
  • $41-61 for an RV hookups
  • $59-70 for one of their log cabins which can hold up to 4 people

(This is Canadian dollars which is comparable to US dollars but check the currency rate)

I am not saying my wife would have been ok with us going camping on our honeymoon (although I don’t see anything wrong with that), but it seems like Jellystone has the best of both worlds.  However, if you like to rough it during your camping trip don’t get too excited.  Jellystone it is comparable to a KOA, which I’m not knocking, I’ve been going to KOA campsites for years.  But they’re a place with showers and washing machines on site.  A good place for new campers trying to get there feet wet and some people just love that atmosphere.  I would like to recommend some New York State Parks, but there are no parks close to the falls that allow camping.  But they are beautiful, and you should go to both sides of the border to enjoy you trip.  I hope you find this article helpful

 

Happy Camping
