Does anybody know of any camps/resorts in Central Ontario where they DON"T allow open burning/firepits/campfires?
My wife & I are both allergic to smoke, but would love to go somewhere for a few days & bring our boat to fish.

Pretty tall order chum. You might be better off trying a trip when the municipalities have banned outdoor burning.
You might be better off going to a secluded crown lot somewhere without neighbours?
Deerhurst maybe .

Only resorts I can think of, off the top that offer no burning would be owned by the Sandals company, and located on sandy beaches in the tropics :)
Allergies like that,for people who love the outdoors,are the absolute pits. The pollen from many plants make summer for this dedicated varmint/predator hunter,a real hassle. My best friends are Benydril and Reactin,so,I can really empathize. It's like having a perpetual cold. Is there any preventive OTC drugs you can use to lessen or even eliminate the symptoms? Maybe,have a chat with your MD. He may be able to help you with a "puffer" or "inhaler". I hate to say this,but,finding anywhere without smoke of some sort will be like trying to push a chain. Good luck to you,though.Quote:

Just frustrating when you live in Niagara, and the only place to take our boat is Lake Erie & there is so much wind all the time it seems lately. Would really be nice to have a small lake somewhere to go to, but we're too old for the hassle of camping out anymore!
I feel for you, but the camp fire is all part of camping. As others have suggested a resort such as Deerhurst which is mole of a hotel than a camp will probably be the best option.
Good luck and I hope you enjoy where ever you find a suitable place.
Might I also suggest that keeping any eye on things like fire bans in specific areas. If there is a ban in place, these locations shouldn't be allowing open burning. I know that its not a great solution, but thought I would throw it out to you.

Yep, secluded crown land. You've got the boat. Try some looking around for island campsites
Why not just rent a private cottage, in a private setting where your plenty space away from the next one. Still be the same cost as a camp, and you and the wife won't be bothered by anyone.
Like others said, your best bet are crown land, lots of free empty camp site there.Quote:
