Answer
If you are looking for something remote, try Massasauga Provincial Park, just south of Parry Sound, or, of course, Algonquin Provincial Park, Huntsville.
Fact is, there is very little public (Crown) land left in Muskoka / Parry Sound, and most areas are designated no camping. Any other lands are privately owned, and whether posted or not, you will be trespassing if you use these lands without owners permission.
As a landowner in Muskoka, I am tired of city folks, who seem to be completely ignorant about property law, trespassing on my land, camping, picnicking, scaring the wildlife, etc, etc. Just because I don't have a fence around my 250 acres, or "no trespassing" signs, does NOT make it public property. BTW, penalties for trespass are up to $2000.
I'm sure to people from an urban environment, Muskoka must appear to have large tracts of unoccupied land, but in fact Muskoka has a considerable population of both seasonal and year round residents, and virtually all land is privately owned. Please abide by this rule: If you don't own it, someone else does.

Best places to camp in ontario?

Im 21, boyfriend 22 and we live close to Ottawa.
We're looking for a place within about 3 hours of driving to go camping.
We're trying to find a place that has lots of activities.
Maybe a place with boat rentals, or near some activities or anything that has something a just "a bit more" than the typical camp ground.
Any advice?
Answer
Cutapung, some areas on the river at Orilia, or I think the lake is called lake Simcoe, on Country Road 48 off highway 12.
