Campground Opening Further Delayed
The 2026 opening for Whispering Pines Family Campground is further postponed due to ongoing substantial flooding throughout the property.
The revised tentative opening date is Monday, June 1, at 9:00 a.m. This date may be subject to further delay, if the water does not subside. Confirmation of opening will be provided one week prior to opening.
The Campground will extend the season into the fall. The Campground will close Sunday, October 25th, 2026, at 4:00 p.m.
The Campground has experienced record flooding, creating significant heath and safety concerns. Standing water on much of the property has impacted hydro service, septic, potable water, the main office, maintenance facilities, pool, uprooted trees, limited road access and washouts. No Trespassing signs are posted at the front gate and fence.
2026 site fees are to be paid but, upon review and to be fair to everybody, seasonal fees will be reduced by $500. Refunds will be issued to those that have prepaid. New payments will be adjusted accordingly.
Should you have any inquiries or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us at [email protected].
We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
Thank you,
Tim Brown, President Kiwanis Club of Owen Sound
Tim Sobie, Chair Whispering Pines Campground Committee
