Arrowhead Provincial Park Reviews

Wow! Went there during fall color watch. It was absolutely stunning.

Didn't know camp grounds are open this late. I will definitely be visiting here next year.

Site 445 Roe campground.

Stayed here for 2 nights and 3 days with my two daughters (9 and 11). As a person who grew up doing more "interior" or backwoods camping I have not had any good "car-camping" experiences. However Arrowhead Roe campground has changed my opinion of that. The sites are relatively private and there are several amenities that make the experience great. Potable water stations close by, functioning but not fancy washrooms, the comfort station, 2 picnic tables at the site, a working grill with fire pit and lots of trails. It all combines to make for a seamless and comfortable experience.

The beaches are nice and the trails varied in length which gives you options. Park staff were also present over the 3 days which is nice to see. The park store was a saving grace as we ran short on fire wood.

There was a black bear encounter at the site next to us (food was left out briefly) and the bear was eager for more as he snooped around the other sites. The park staff came and spoke with the camper, assured they were aware, monitoring and attempting to live trap. Luckily that same night they returned and had trapped the bear (Lucky for sure and not the only bear but still nice to have the feedback).

Overall the park was well spaced, lots of amenities depending on the site you choose and provides a nice setting for family camping. My kids liked the whole experience and with bathrooms etc. not far from any campsite they enjoyed the freedom to go without me and explore the local area. If only you could pick the fellow campers on nearby sites (looking at you multiple families on one site with wild kids and up till midnight partying...)

Very poor signage of specific route along the snowshoe trails.otherwise good outing

Very private, and very public. Bring tents or a trailer tho. If you hammock camp like I do you will find your limited on the sites where you can place a hammock

Beautiful views and good hiking trails. Amazing for a day trip.

Fantastic camping experience!!! Loved the trails as they were beautiful clean and fairly easy to do. The beach was great sandy and beautiful views across the shorelines. The campsites are great if you love trees and forest foliage, as almost every campsite in this park has all of this, great for privacy too. I never had an issue with the washrooms because I don't pay attention to that since I went here mainly for the camping and nature and scenery. The rangers are friendly and helpful and courtious and service is bang on. People can be loud at times at night but thats all great by me to hear someone is enjoying themselves while they camp, brings out the happy camping spirits in all of us. The parks maps are a little confusing and while driving around can get confusing the way they have so many roads leading from one place to the next in multiple directions and its like a maze in some parts, its easy to get lost fast. Other then that this is the perfect camping experience for all ages, from the novice camper to the pro level.

Beautiful Provincial Park: trails, waterfalls, camping

Beautiful trails for hiking. There's a number of trails you can choose from depending on your difficulty preference. Water stations and bathrooms located throughout.
Great opportunity to see wildlife! We saw a massive snapping turtle swimming under the bridge we were crossing.
Lots of privacy if camping in the park with access to beautiful views and sandy beaches.

Bring a water bottle/canteen and a camera!

It was my first time camping in a camp ground/provincial park I am used to going on crownland

Many many rules to fallow and staff where not the greatest I got lost and ask for help to get back and they told me that it was not their job. The wood being sold was extremely expensive 9$ for a small bag of wet birch.

They drive around all night making sure people don't burn sticks

They do have a fabulous beach great for swimming I spent my whole time their kids really enjoyed it and not much of a current so bring all the tubes

Great place for any age
Great sites and beautiful scenery.
Went kayaking and had a great time..still waters
Nice trails for walking or biking.
Large private campsites
The town of Huntsville is another great place..clean and really nice views.
I wrote down many nice site # as we will be back

Its pretty busy, but if you go at an off time its a great trail and view! There isn't any food to buy, so it's good to bring your own meal and water.

Amazing park ! Great location for a fun family hike and an awesome beach for a hot summer day

Beaches are pretty nice. Went mostly for some hiking trails. The trails are pretty nice but wish they were marked better. Hard to tell which trail was what. The falls trail is nice, a beautiful lookout spot

Awesome cross country skiing and Stubbs falls is beautiful in the winter and fun in the summer.

Great place for winter activities and a breath of fresh air.

What a beautiful park! We absolutely loved it. We went canoeing and hiking!

Amazing hiking. Private and large campsites. This will be our go to for years to come!!!

Poor display of details and information. Permit required to be displayed on the vehicle - This was displayed on the entry of provincial park. But there were no info. on where to get it from. No warden , no information at the entry. Many people stopped their vehicle at the entry unsure on what to do. This is for info. If you are unsure, just drive in. Park office is inside some 2 kms inside and you will get pass from there. Fee is approx. CAD 15. You need to park vehicle( parking is limited) and go to park office to collect the ticket. Don't know why they don't keep a drive thru ticket booth.

Other than that, park experience and views are amazing. Calm and serene place.

Awesome park with the most private campsites I have seen inside a provincial park. I would say that's it's very family friendly but with its large size, it's probably more meant for kids older than 5

Very nice scenery, the only reason I dont give 5 stars is the seeming lack of wildlife. I didnt see much other than mosquitoes and seagulls.

Great cross country skiing! Price good. Will definitely go again.

Very great winter playground! Even though it was in the -30's this last weekend the skating rink and snowshoe trails were amazing.
