Durham Conservation Area

We usually go to dump our RV. They are always wonderful there and the place is well maintained.

Campsites are either tree enclosed or no trees anywhere. Sites with power and water are nice. You have to buy their wood for $10.00/bag only lasted one night! Staff are friendly, lots for teens and young ones to do, ie. Basketball, volleyball, horseshoes, swimming but beach is a car drive away.

Good camping spot. Not great for fishing or hiking but there is plenty of areas around to do so! Also close by to ATV trails, though the park is not ATV friendly

It's a great area for hiking camping and canoeing. Fantastic multi level water falls and river view! The trail winds in the woods and bushes along the river.

The management is really worse because they really concerned about colour and they evicted us for playing music but they said we can play music until 11 but we stopped playing way before that time but still they said they received some complaints but if we are permitted until 11 what's the point of getting complaints before that time the superintendent is rude and crazy.

Very friendly staff, respectful staff.had an enjoyable week there, the falls was most ok.
Would go again.

A jewel of a campground in south Grey County. Well managed ànd easily walkable to the downtown Durham facilities.

Beautiful park, scenic falls after dam for a great swimming area, good family picnic and camping area.

It seems like a great park to place a trailer in. People all seem nice and respectful. I enjoy the peace that I feel when I'm there visiting.

Stopped at day area in middle of road trip, was pleasantly surprised. Nice place to have a coffee overlooking the Saugeen River, large lawn area, smallish beach, clean washrooms, great view, very chill.

Absolutely beautiful and clean campground. Very reasonably priced. The staff are incredibly accommodating. We had an issue with our trailer & both times we made a call to the office, within minutes a staff member from maintenance was @ our site with a smile, great attitude & willing to do whatever they could to help & they succeeded & we were able to go on our way. Thank you so much to the staff well done fabulous customer service.

Good place to hangout with family. Doesn't get too crowded. Main activities are swimming and canoeing. Not that good for fishing in my experience.

The Day Area was a nice little spot for a swim. No shade down by the water though. A lot of steps to get down to water from the parking lot. Little playground at the top by the parking lot. Maybe move the smokers butts can over to the other side of the parking lot as it stinks up the playground with stale and smoldering cigs.

Nice trails.but the bridges are locked which is a joke so you have to walk all the way around to get on the trails.

Its so guiet for a walk with my dog plus its so nice to see others out cross country skiing others snow shoeing im talking 50 years and up at peace with nature get out will we can and enjoy

Good quality tennis courts and nice basketball court. The pond up River from the falls has gradual sloping shoreline and lots of calm water. There is a covered Pavilion with about 8 picnic tables and attached public washrooms. The cedar forest is very peaceful and has done walking trails as well. The falls can range from a gentle trickle to serious fast moving Whitewater. Total drop looks like about 20 feet or so over a few ledges. There is a small playground with Li title kids slide and an older kids slide. Only drawback is that there isn't much open green fields.

My personal getaway area. ️️
Lots to do but only for people that like farm and livestock.
Happy Fall.

Beautiful spot, and and only a ten minute nature walk from McGowan Falls, another picturesque tourist area. This dam boasts swimming area, dock, trails, and a playground atop a hill overlooking the water. If you plan to visit, pack a lunch and give yourself the day to explore the trails, climb the rocks, find the secret spots, and cool off in the water

The durhan conservation area home away from home to all vistors from near and far Beautiful falls to see during the day and just as beautiful and wonderous in the evenings:)

Lots of sites to choose from, some are pretty open but everyone was nice enough (other then some seasonal sites partying loudly to 6am). Lots of stuff to do, the waterfalls were amazing and being able to easily access them was great. If you have a big trailer I would recommend calling about the site you want, the website said one site was bigger then the rest we wanted to the guy with the largest trailer booked it and he barely fit (and needed to borrow multiple cinder blocks due to the slope) Seemed like maybe the seasonal sites had taken over their site a bit and also walked right through their site constantly instead of walking an extra 10 ft on the road. Other then a few issues with seasonals this is an awesome campground and we will be coming back

Loved it here! Beautiful and well kept conservation area. Bathrooms and showers were clean. Lucy at the front desk was fantastic.

Small river and Dam to hangout. There is big camping ground. Well maintained. Kids play area and a nice open theatre.

Awesome place to camp. So many trees and the beauty of nature everywhere! Staff is all great, especially Lucy and Peyton! Thank you for your kindness and help.
I would definitely recommend!

We got hands down the best site there for camping, and had the entire non-serviced area around us empty, so our experience was amazing, but results may not be typical.lol The washrooms are clean and well stocked. They're all over the place just like water taps, not a far walk from anywhere. The staff is fantastic, we kept busy for 3 days and our kids didn't even notice there was no wi-fi. It would be nice if some of the river view spots were left for non-seasonal campers, but I do understand they help fund the park to be as clean and well managed as it is. The people of Durham are lucky to have such a great place for hiking and swimming.
