Keewadyn sits along the St. Lawrence River in the Alexandria Bay Area. You can catch some pretty good views-Canada is literally across the way- but this felt a lot like camping in someone’s backyard. The whole park was wide open with barely any shade or trees. Granted, most are probably there to camp by the river and to partake in some of the area’s recreational opportunities, but I generally prefer to camp in more forested, secluded parks.

On the bright side, there is a lot to do in terms of recreation-boating, kayaking, white water rafting, wine tasting and exploring the local history. The park is safe and family oriented. Wouldn’t be my first choice, but maybe a good option for families with young children.
