Rock Point provincial park

Another summer filled with camp trips at different Provincial Parks. Today we head to Rock Point campsite where the scenery fits for the park name. Along the beach with a beautiful shore filled with shells along side with hard rock floor beneath our feet. There must be big fish to catch as we also cross by some not so nice view of huge dead fish. Certain areas came with strong smell from the rotten fish. Other than that, we were able to see a light house from a far and watch the sunset in the west.

Our campsite #72 was pretty small and not much privacy as it was right at the corner of a busy intersection. It was close to the amenities, like the washroom and shower station which was pretty convenient for the kids. It was also filled with spiders, HUGE ones! There were a few mosquitos but none of us was bitten. The store wasnt close by, so we had to drive there. It was close to the beach and park area. We didnt have marshmellow sticks and unfortunately the store did not carry a cheap one that we wanted. If you need one, its $9 and huge. After staying there for a night, we head out the next day to the village for some breakfast. There was only one store we found that had breakfast called, "Flyers bakery and cafe". We didnt get our food until an hour later, which was kind of disappointing. We didnt have much of a choice but to wait, since it was the only breakfast in town.

After breakfast, we headed out to the Grand river to fish. There was a marine area to also fish but it cost $15 for a whole day, so we passed and went along the river side to fish for free. There was parking and in 2 hours, we caught 3 small fish.

We headed along Guyatt rd to drop by "Murphys country produce ltd" to do some raspberry picking. We chose the $4 a basket to fill it with raspberries. There was another basket, a bit bigger, for $7. There were other fruits and veggies to pick but we only did the raspberries.

Overall, the kids enjoyed the weekend trip to Dunnville city. Hope everyone would have as much fun as we did!
