Balsam Lake Provincial Park

Visited for a two-​night camp with some friends. As somebody before me already mentioned, the campsites are too close together. Most of the time you can see your neighbors right through the trees, and other times there aren’t even any trees between you and your neighbors.
Their outhouses smell, are dirty, and poorly maintained; I like to use soap after using the washroom, but the outhouses did not have soap. The comfort stations are better maintained.
The Park sold us damp wood, and it took over 30 minutes to start campfires every single time. We had to burn the water out of the wood before we could actually burn the wood itself to start a campfire. People are bound to start campfires at camp; why would you keep damp wood in your inventory, and then why the hell would you sell it to people?
The lake itself was the only aspect of the park I liked. It can get crowded at times, but it’s a nice little lake. And as far as lake water goes, it’s fairly clean.

Camped here for the Canada Day Long Weekend, understadably busy campsite due to holiday but very poorly laid out. Way too many campsites crammed together side by side, with nothing but a thin layer of trees between each site. No privacy whatsoever, and a lot of noise at all hours of the day. 3 sites down a party went on until 4 AM, while 2 sites over a baby cried all night. I got up to use the restroom at 4:30AM and had to wait in line. It was that busy.
Walked the park for half an hour the next morning and never found the lake, nor did we see any large hiking trails although the map claimed to have a few. Just encountered hundreds of campsites, parents screaming at their kids, and well, kids running wild all over the place. There are a lot more parks in driving distance with actual wilderness to be enjoyed without feeling like you’re living in an apartment building with no walls. Never again.
