Soo Locks Campground

Right on the river. Close to town. It's not pretty, just functional.

What a awesome location. I have been visiting this place for over 15 years. I absolutely love it here. You get to see the ships go by day and night. The shower house are always clean. In the fall when it’s freezing cold the shower houses are always warm. Fresh coffee and cappuccinos in the office. A game room for kids. A laundry room and a few things for sale in the office. All around I absolutely love this camp ground! See ya in September!

The photos online were deceiving. This campground has tiny little sites in an industrial area of Sault Ste Marie. It was super quiet at night but it’s next door to a military base and 5 Chinook helicopters ran drills in the morning from 8:30 -11am and it felt like we were in a war zone.

We came however to watch the ships go by and it was suitable for this. The bathrooms were old but clean. They sell ice and wood.

There were some tentless kids sleeping by the river who are known to steal beer in the night. You’ve been warned.

We planned to stay 2 nights but only stayed one. It was just a parking lot.
