Great campground especially if you're looking for a seasonal. Well managed and reasonable. Lots to do for everyone regardless of age and close to Carleton Place and Perth. Check it out. You won't be disappointed. Great access to the Mississippi River for fishing, boating, kayaking and canoeing!

Quiet, Well-run Campground
We visited Mal's Camping for a lunch-stop as part of a canoe outing along the Mississippi River near Fergusons Falls.
Hamburgers, fries and ice cream cones are available in the camp store. Being a hot day, the ice cream was a real treat to eat under the tall shade trees.
There is a nice beach for swimming. With fishing being popular with many of the campers, it was good to hear that many of the campers are very involved with the ecology of the river and its wildlife.
We will be sure to return.

Really impressed with this campground. Clean facilities and nice sized lots. Clean safe and sandy beach. We were there early week so it was very quiet
Got a lovely spot on the water with lots of space for the kids to run around and a short walk to the beach. Bring coins for the showers. Super friendly owner /operator.

Family Run campground with plenty of amenities. Clean efficient and friendly. approximately 120 permanent campsites with areas for weekend campers. Sandy and clean beach for enjoyable swimming. Boat launch separate for the fishermen in the crowd. Fun activities all season.

More of a seasonal trailer park than a campground, but it's kept well and has a well stocked store.
