This was our third camping weekend at Cardinal K0A. The campground is very clean and well kept.

Lovely park with much to do. Well looked after. Great staff. The only thing missing is sewer hook ups.

Très beau séjour quoique court. Très propre, bel endroit pour relaxer et aussi s’amuser. Les enfants ont de quoi se divertir et la route à l’avant est quand même sécuritaire pour faire du vélo, pas trop achalandé. Beaux paysages et de belles fermes. L’espace pour le VR est assez au niveau, ce qui est plaisant et plus simple. On va y retourner en famille, c’est certain.

The facility was clean and has lots of fun activities for the family! We had a lot of fun through the day! That said, the fire curfew was what ruined it for us. We wanted to have fun all day with the kids but once the kids go to bed the parents like to hang out and have fun but fires out by midnight was no good.. sorry but we paid to rent the place and don't like being told it's my bedtime..

This was our first stay at a KOA and it was a fantastic experience! Everything was very clean and very well maintained. We found the cleaning staff, pool staff and front desk staff to be extremely friendly and helpful. We will be back!

The sites and facilities were extremely well kept and clean. Great variety of activities and recreation for the entire family to enjoy throughout out stay. Easy to get firewood and ice when needed.

We had an absolute wonderful time! Lots to do with 4 kids, they were thoroughly entertained! We met many friendly fellow campers and the staff went above and beyond to ensure the kids had the best time:) We would like to acknowledge Sam the staff member who was charming and funny and definitely put a huge smile on our kids faces:) she answered all their questions! Thanks Sam!

Friendly staff, quiet campground, excellent wifi. Worth the trip!

Our stay was very enjoyable. The owner went above and beyond even loaning us his car so that we could go into town to buy our granddaughter a birthday cake. We would definitely recommend Cardinal to our friends and family and hope to return in the future. The grandkids especially loved the bubble drop.

What a great park! super clean, and tons of activities.

The owner of the campsite was fantastic! He came by quickly to fix a problem with our trailer and he stopped by to chat with us the next night. The campground had many activities and it was very family-oriented. A wonderful experience!

Our favourite place to camp lots of fun for the whole family!

So much fun for the family :j

Super clean. Covid is taken seriously as it should. It's hard to get a swim and splash pad time but it is well run. Still lots to do though.

The kids had a blast (as usual) at the Cardinal KOA. We would recommend this KOA to anyone with a your family. So much to do and all event are well organized. Thanks again for another great stay!

Although we had an exceptional time, I’m surprised there’s nothing special for kids celebrating birthdays there. A special sign for the site or a coupon for the store. But we did have a great time.
Aug 03, 2021
C’était bien malgré température pas trop bonne mais excellent service sur le site
Aug 03, 2021
Wonderful site. Great service. Will definitely recommend and return!

campground was clean, for the price not worth it charging top dollar and only 2 services,most important the person was rude in the pizza truck on site, the night security man would sneak around by foot on your site his name was daniel,only after when i required to make a complaint daniel was the OWNER.there are many different types of campers,daniel needs to adjust,signed 25 year campers.

We had a great time as always! With the Covid measures in place, Cardinal / Ottawa South does a great job ensuring the safety of all, while managing to have a little impact of the activities.. Great job!

Lots of great activities, and Covid guidelines followed.

First time camping at a KOA but will not be our last. The park was clean and well organized. So many things to do with our kids and we had an amazing weekend. Can’t wait to come back

This was our first stay, and we will definitely be back! We especially enjoyed the activities! Thanks again!

Awesome stay as usual. Love the bingo's, and the auction was great fun for a great fund for a great cause!

Thank you for attending the auction. Care Camps is a charity close to our hearts and we are thankful for your generosity and assistance to help us send kids with cancer, and their families, to specialized oncology camps across North America.

Staff were friendly, facilities were clean, service was quick and with no cash environment, easy. My only suggestion would be to provide a detailed receipt of the charges to site. We will be back!

We had a fantastic week! Staff were friendly and helpful. The entire park was clean and well maintained. The activities & amenities were great. No complaints whatsoever. Thanks KOA Cardinal. We’ll be back!

It was very relaxing. Park was not full up. Very well maintained, clean. The extras like bingo, pizza, etc. made it more home like than minimal campgrounds and parks do. Staff very responsive and pleasant.

Although a beautiful spot with lots to do and amazingly clean and well run, the owners and staff make it very difficult to enjoy yourself. It seems they’ve lost their passion for running this place and are always glum and barking orders at guests. The campground was barren with maybe 30% capacity in a time where every other campground has full capacity and no bookings available.

Great family fun. Great staff, very clean and well run.

This is my 5th year returning to Cardinal KOA. We absolutely love this campground. Staff are very friendly and always have a smile on their faces. We tried the pizza this year and it’s absolutely delicious. We will try snd book another weekend before the season ends

Each year our time at KOA is fun and special!

Came for a visit at the end of July. We stayed in one of the cabins. The campground is well maintained. There were a lot of rules. We did our best to follow them. The fact we could only use pool in 30 minute increments was a little excessive. Hopefully when the pandemic restrictions soften they will let more people use pool as it really made things less fun. The owners were ok. We didn't have a bad experience with them but when I did speak to them they certainly weren't the nicest or best hosts that we have had at KOA's. The owners weren't mean. Just seemed busy all the time. Can't be easy to run a business in a pandemic so I have to say it wasn't a deal breaker for us. The campground was only about half full. Perhaps the pandemic was the reason why or maybe the bad reviews are finally catching up to them. We used this campground as a base to go visit Ottawa. Drive to Ottawa wasn't bad. Was nice to have all the outdoor activities for the kids.

KOA I incredible ❤ I recommend 100% there so much for kids to do 2 parks a splash pad and a huge bubble to bounce on. Plus they schedule events such as the best haunted house I've ever experienced.
