    I have been doing Ontario parks trip for only a few years now and I just found your page! I'm going to binge watch all these seasons, so nice local folks are exploring as many parks as I want to as well! These videos are adorable, keep it up!

      Thanks so much. If you start from season 1, I hope you'll see the progression in quality and substance. We're starting to redo some of the parks from season 1 and 2 because we want to update them and give more info about them.

    Went there in 1979 and it was like camping on farm land. Boy has it changed.

      We just learned of Point Farms in 2019 and couldn't believe that we didn't know about it before. It's a regular for us now. Sure doesn't feel like camping on farm land now.

    We were there a few weeks ago. We really liked it. There were some great sunsets. Our site wasn't very level and hard to back our camper on but it was very private. The town of Goderich is only 10 minutes away which was nice. There was a great place down the road with lots of flavors of soft ice cream. We would definitely go back.

    Getting some ideas for this season as to where to go :). Thanks for being my first go-to channel! BTW - Point Farms is great in September to pick apples, since the ravine trail used to be the old apple orchard.

      You started at a very high level you must admit the editing and every single detail You are definitely one of my resourcesfrom now on. I live in Waterloo and have found your videos very recently. I will watch the videos of the places I’ve already camped in and see what I missed haha
      Thank you for the ratings and detailed coverage to the nice gestures like popcorn bags and smarties sharing with other campers also camping etiquettes 👌🏼I even thought of translating your videos, but it must be done appropriately etiquettes and copyrights and licensing and all that I have no idea whatsoever but one day might ask you for that

      If you want to watch any of our videos with subtitles in a different language you can do that on RUclips. There are more than 100 languages to choose from. Here's how to do it. At the bottom of the video click on CC which means Closed Captions. It will then show closed captions in English or French on the video. Then click on the settings icon at the bottom of the video screen and click on "Subtitles/CC". At the top of the new window that opens you can choose one of the languages that it shows or you can click on Auto-translate. Then you can pick any of the more than 100 languages to translate the captions. The captions at the bottom of the video will then be in whatever language you choose. Here is a video that shows how to do it ruclips.net/video/GB3cG3uITSI/видео.html

    Thanks for the reviews. Am now going through to watch them all. We really enjoyed Point Farms, and exploring Goderich. How did you get ariel shots of you driving?

    • @CampingwiththeColes
      @CampingwiththeColes  3 года назад

      Thanks for your support. The aerial shots while driving were tricky. That was my first time trying it. Cheryl drove and I flew the drone from the passenger seat. It was stressful as I lost connection with the drone and though it would automatically return to where I was with the control but instead it returned to where it took off from. So for about 5 minutes it was hovering 3 feet off the ground about 2 feet from the side of the road on the shoulder while I frantically searched the sky for it. When I recovered it and watched the footage I saw cars doing 100 km/h past it causing the drone to shake in the wake of the cars wind. Since then, what I do is pull over and stand well off the road and have Cheryl drive by while I control the drone and film. It's much safer. The drone footage from the beach from a few years earlier was done with the permission of park staff before the drone restrictions got so strict. I haven't been able to fly a drone in a provincial park for a few years now.

      @@michellepodnar1452 I like when the property line between the park and public property is very close to the good parts of the park. I take off and land the drone from public property to keep it legal. I also did that a Mara Provincial Park and Charleston Lake Provincial Park.

    Your very lucky that you were there early in the year , normally it’s busy and noisy at Point Farms. But good if your okay with that.

    • @CampingwiththeColes
      @CampingwiththeColes  3 года назад

      We're usually there in May or October so it's pretty quiet. One time in July though I had to walk into a guys tent at 11:30pm to turn off his portable stereo that was blasting classic rock across the entire park while he was passed out drunk.

      Beware of Falls reserve conservation area near Benmiller (Goderich). We went camping there many years ago .We were in a canvas trailer the teenagers were partying had a very tall fire going and kept putting gas on it. There was no security around , so I didn’t sleep that night ,we left very early the next morning . The conservation area in Durham is very nice and a good place for your water sports.

    Hi Guys, we are heading to point farms this week with our Great Pyrenees dog. Wondering if the dog beach is on leash or off leash.

    • @CampingwiththeColes
      @CampingwiththeColes  Год назад +1

      It's an on leash dog beach. The dog beach is on a point. If you stick to the side where the person beach is the bottom is nice and sandy. If you go around the point it's very rocky.

    ❤❤❤how different groupcamping site from single sites ? Prices and booking pros and cons?

    • @CampingwiththeColes
      @CampingwiththeColes  Год назад +1

      If you have a few families that want to camp together, then getting a group site is awesome. You pay a base rate then additional cost per person. If you have a 4 or 5 families it's often cheaper than 4 or 5 campsites. Also, they are usually away from the rest of the campground so you don't have to worry about being too loud or your kids running around bothering other people.
