A great little parking spot by the lake. Very busy area on a sunny Sunday afternoon, lots of walkers enjoying the first signs of spring. Very quiet at night though

Spent 1 night without any issues. There were 3 other RVs parked here as well. Fairly quiet. Also a walking distance to downtown restaurants and attractions. Free between 5 pm to 8 am and $1.50/hr after that. Convenient parking for the waterfront trail.

Bel endroit sur le bord de l’eau. Achalandé, mais nous avons très bien dormi. Le stationnement est gratuit en tout temps les fins de semaines.

Nice spot this is the second time I use this parking close to downtown and washroom available. Parking is small and EC over 25 feet should not anticipate parking at this spot.

Today a trailer with a pick up park or is using 2 spots. This is sad and the reason why cities put up sign such as ‘no parking over night’

I just hope this spot remain open

Spot vraiment cool avec vue sur le lac. Il y a un peu de passage tôt le matin mais c’est correct.

Still available, beautiful place. 1700 to 800 hrs free parking.

Nice spot right by the water. Otherf campers and vans were here as well. Quiet at night.

Très belle place on peut demeurer sur place de 17:00 à 8:00 et si l’on veux prolonger après 8:00 c’est $ 1.50 de l’heure près de la descente de bateaux et d’une petite marina
Très près à pied des restaurants sur place vous pouvez louer kayak et vélos etc
Très tranquille c’est un endroit à conseillé

great views

Gratuit de 17h00 à 8h00 du matin ensuite c’est 1.5$/heure.
Parking bien situé, le centre est accessible facilement à pied. Il y a assez de places pour les voitures et VR.
Assez bruyant le matin entre 5h et 7h du matin. Les habitants viennent stationner avec de la musique très forte dans la voiture pour contempler la vue tout en restant à l’intérieur de la voiture avec les fenêtres grandes ouvertes…

très belle vue pour un stationnement a côté de la descente de bateau

Really quiet place besides the boat launch and close to city hall. Free parking between 5pm and 8am. Busy during day ( we were Tuesday) but we got a place for our 20 feet class C. Not appropriate for big RV.

Little parking lot by the lake, close to marina and boat launch. Was a bit nervous at first, since locals seem to come to this spot in the evening to watch the lake. Even saw a couple of teens take a swim. Thought we would be expelled, but no one seemed to care much, as we stayed low profile. In the morning, noticed another van had also camped for the night. Guess this is a « usual » spot to spend the night. Great spot if you're « on the move ». We arrived evening and left early next morning, on our way to Niagara Falls. Pump House Building had 1 outdoor electrical socket accessible, but I did not dare plug into it (no need). Did not use site bathroom. Mosquitoes are vicious after sundown.

We stayed here for one night. I do not recommend vehicles longer than 21 feet. Quiet and safe place

September 29th, 2018 by va3rcs

Great location but is just a pay and display parking lot

Good for cars and stealth vans. A class b coach would be hard pressed to fit

Better off at the Walmart
