“Not too great”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 August 2012

Hither hills is not exactly a great camp ground experience. There is virtually nothing to do and the one thing they offer, the pool, gets rented out to what appears to be a day care from 1PM until 2PM. It is still a good 30 minutes to downtown Ottawa because of traffic. The washrooms are clean but around the unfinished... More

“Had a wonderful time again”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 July 2011

My wife and I have 8 children, ranging from teens to tots and this is our second time here. We had a great time both last year and this year again. When my wife was looking online to find this campground again, we were shocked to see all the negative reviews. We decided to ignore the negative reviews and sure... More

“believe the ratings”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 July 2011

Believe Woodals and Trailerlife ratings, not the reports of disgruntled, maybe demanding campers or people expecting plush accomodations. The campground has a rustic natural setting in a treed area - it is not all neatly lined up with manicured landscaping. It does not have alot of amenities, but is convenient to Ottawa for touring or visiting relatives.There was plenty of... More

“Turned right around at the entrance and went to "find" a real campground”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 June 2011

My wife and I pulled up with our 3 children planning to stay for the July 1st holiday near Ottawa. They accepted cash only, I had none so they offered to let me drop my trailer and go to get cash. I drove into the park to the assigned site... made a quick stop at the "bathrooms" (disgusting and they... More

“Terrible”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 May 2011

Stayed 2 nights but by the time we parked and looked around the place it was too late. Showers are something to be desired. Old wooden cubicles with wooden slatted doors and pull chains for the shower above your head with no temp. control, something like the MASH show. Drive thrus. were brutal and mud. The electrical post was broken... More

“Never Again!!!”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 August 2010

WOW! where to start. 1. Showers leave much to be desired. all heads are on one central line and there is no control of hot and cold. 2. Washrooms could stand to be cleaned more then once every other day. if that often. 3. Park riles, and there are many, only posted in washrooms not even at office. 4. I... More

“Do Not Stay Here!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 July 2010

My family stayed here the 2nd week of July, 2010 and had a less than expected poor stay. Reading the reviews I knew we did not have a great park here but this was not a concern as we would not be at the campground during the day as we would be sightseeing. All that was expected was to have... More

“Wow! And Not a Good Wow.”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 October 2007

I first called to book a site and the phone call went alright. It was quite simple, just a small tenting site for one person. (I was staying in Ottawa doing a Ph.D. seminar. I keep it simple.) The second phone call I made, two days before arriving, pretty much set the tone for the whole time. I asked what... More

We have several towers for the WiFi service which is available throughout the campground unless hindered by trees or buildings. Campground rules are posted at Washrooms, Laundry, Office & Coach House. Tourist information is displayed and... More
