Depending on who you ask this park gets mixed reviews, so we weren't sure how we would feel about this park. Stay tuned to see a tour of the park, some nearby attractions, and our overall thoughts of Sibbald Point Provincial Park.

    Great review. We were there on Canada Day weekend so it was even busier than when you were there. I think it would be a nice park in spring or fall when the beach day use people are not as likely to go. Good thing you knew about the fill stations at the comfort stations as we didn't know that before we went and we spent a fair bit of time at the dump station to fill up.

    • @TheAverageTourist
      @TheAverageTourist  2 года назад +1

      Thank you! I don't think I could go on a long weekend, or I'd just end up staying on my site. 🤣 My sister told me about the water stations since she arrived the day before and I'm so glad she did. It was very busy when we were checking in, so saved us a lot of time.

    Hi! Totally understand about how busy it is. I’ve there twice as a overnight stay in the peak summer months. I want to back, but on the shoulder season. Keep up the great videos.

    • @TheAverageTourist
      @TheAverageTourist  Год назад

      Thanks so much! Yes I think we will give it another try in the shoulder season - then the amenities should be less busy and hopefully it doesn't take an hour to go through the dumping station.

    So much great info as always. Love your enthusiasm and structure. The park looks like it has a lot to offer. Would love to take a boat out for the day there. That place seems huge. Free museums are great too. Fern trail seems nice but watch out for that poison ivy! I like the break down at the end

    We enjoyed our stay at Siddbald, nice park, busy on weekends, so beach was packed. Made the same mistake at the filling station at 500 comfort station. U turn lol. Need more paths I agree, oh not fun backing in the site at night in the rain, only to find out we could have pulled tru. Note to self leave earlier.

    • @TheAverageTourist
      @TheAverageTourist  Год назад

      Oh no!! Arriving at night or in the rain is the worst. It's happened to us too... not ideal. Comparing it now to some other parks, it was actually an OK experience but I'd prefer to go during a less busy time.

    Loved your honest review of this park! Busy is definitely not for everyone and waiting an hour to dump would be very annoying. The beach did look nice though.

  • @AdventuresOfATravelingDon
    @AdventuresOfATravelingDon 2 года назад

    Quite a bit to do here. I've never heard of a campground with a museum. I do love historical places. The grounds looks pretty nice. Rather open, I enjoy more dense woods but, the beach definitely makes up for it. As always I appreciate the depth of information and your own perspective you put into these videos.

    • @TheAverageTourist
      @TheAverageTourist  2 года назад

      Yes there was a lot to do there for sure. I prefer more dense woods as well and more privacy - I'm learning that there's so much to the world of camping!

    I'm planning a camping trip to Sibbald Point in a few weeks in the off peak season. Just wondering if it's quiet there, as far as outside road traffic is concerned? I see that the park is close to some main roads.

    • @TheAverageTourist
      @TheAverageTourist  2 года назад +1

      The only road traffic we heard when we were there was from within the park and the day use area.

    the park was super busy when I went there with My niece and nephew in tow, super loud, even at night, around 11pm wardens had to come to the site beside us to tell them to be quiet. Niece and nephew do not want to go back to this provincial park. Though I may try it myself one time.

    • @TheAverageTourist
      @TheAverageTourist  4 месяца назад +1

      Surprisingly it wasn't loud when we went but we were fully expecting it to be. We did go by a few sites blaring music in different areas of the park. I'd try it again but probably only in the shoulder season.

    • @Antuuthu
      @Antuuthu 4 месяца назад

      My Niece, who was 11 at the time, is a lil water Nymph, we had did a day trip for the beach three years ago, water was amazing, but could not believe how busy it was! Line up to get in was to the highway! Anyway we decided to do a 2 nighter one weekend last year in July, Lakeside section. Was Loud most of that weekend.@@TheAverageTourist

    We would also not like it being so busy, we hate busy places especially when camping, the main idea is to escape everything not be surrounded. Mosquitoes are the worst!

    There are so many pros and cons to consider when deciding to book at this park. Of course for us, being close to a brewery is a big perk 🙌
    That trail didn't sound much fun when you were there...the probability of itching from bugs or plants seemed pretty high 😆

    • @TheAverageTourist
      @TheAverageTourist  2 года назад +1

      Haha yeah the brewery was a highlight, the poison ivy and mosquitoes were not 🤣
