About
Riverside Campground is located beside the provincially significant Old Ausable Channel and has electrical, non-electrical, pull-through sites and roofed accommodations. Riverside Area 1 is open year-round for those that want to enjoy Pinery in all four seasons.
Roofed accommodations are located in Riverside Area 1. Area 3 Riverside Campground is designated as radio-free.
Dunes Campground is within easy walking distance of the Lake Huron beach, outdoor amphitheatre and Visitor Centre. This campground provides a mix of electrical, pop-up trailer and tent sites from May to October. Area 4 of Dunes Campground is designated as pet-free camping.
Burley Campground, open from June to September, is the furthest away from the main gate, but is well worth the extra drive! The sites in Burley are nestled between older cedars and within close walking distance of the beach. These campsites are perfect for those campers that do not need electricity or pull-through sites.
Amenities such as water taps, comfort stations and laundry facilities are located within all areas in each of the three campground areas in Pinery – Riverside, Dunes and Burley.
Please be sure to always use designated trails and boardwalks to access the beach as our dune system is extremely fragile and sensitive to human impacts.
