The weather was beautiful! Killbear is a beautiful park with beautiful sandy beaches and pristine water. We hiked the Lighthouse Point Trail which is a short loop that takes about half an hour to walk, and also did the Lookout Point trail which is longer at about 3 kms and takes about two hours with complaining children.
Unfortunately the campsite privacy at Killbear has gotten even worse with the removal of so many trees. We stayed at campsite 1441 and it was literally the worst campsite I have ever stayed at. There was absolutely zero privacy and the site itself was so small that having a camper trailer and our friend's tent on the site left us no room to even walk about. It felt like we were camping in a parking lot and because it was a long weekend, the place was packed. There was a line up to use the toilets in the comfort station at 11:15 pm.
Fortunately the weather and beach were so awesome that we spent most of our time at the beach but I will never stay at that campground again, nor will I stay at Killbear on a long weekend. The park isn't THAT nice to put up with those kinds of crowds and crappy campsites.
Killbear also does not rent out any boats nor does it have a park store. We discovered the White Squall Paddling Centre www.whitesquall.com nearby.
They rent out kayaks, canoes & SUP's. We rented a tandem kayak and the staff was very helpful at teaching us how to secure the boat to our Caravan's roof. We paddled around Scott's Island in Georgian bay and around all the boats anchored by the campground's Day use area and many beaches.
