We're at Sherkston Shores RV Resort (Ontario)
We left Double M RV Resort at Lindsay (Ontario) at 9:10 a.m. It was bright and sunny and about 6C (43F). Luckily it didn't get as cold last night as was forecast although the roof was icy! The traffic through Toronto was steady but not too bad. We did lose the sun traveling through Toronto and although we saw another peek of sun on our trip towards the Niagara Region on the Queen Elizabeth Way by the time we arrived at Sherkston Shores it was cloudy again although the temperature did reach 15C (59F). We made a couple of wrong turns which cost us an extra half hour otherwise we would have been here in almost exactly 3 hours. As it was, we arrived at 12:45 p.m.
This is not an easy campground to find your way around in and they don't guide you to your site as some campgrounds do. Eventually a nice gentleman in a golf cart found our site for us and after that the set up as uneventful. Although the site is blacktop with a concrete patio, it's not level so we had to put two rows of levelers on our left side. We're in a pull thru site - 100 ft long and the sites themselves are a very nice size. We have a view of the quarry out our back and side windows at least until someone comes and parks behind us. Maybe another time we'll ask for a back in on the quarry. There's a beach as you will see from the photo below. Not that it's important at this point in the year.
After we were set up we walked around a bit. The washrooms close to us are closed but there are others not that far away and they're heated! Trust me, that's nice for showering at this time of year.
We have 50 amp full hook ups for under $19/day. In the summer they run more like $80/day so this is a real bargain! So, we're here until at least October 25th when we plan to leave for Columbus.

Hi Sandra,
ReplyDeleteI just looked through your recent posts and wanted to say how much I loved the fall pictures. The big rocking chair was cute too.
Safe travels as you head south for the winter in the next two weeks.
