This is one of your best videos. Absolutely fantastic work! Music selection, audio recording, shots, composition of your camera, and overall atmosphere of the scenes is just amazing. The part with the kayaks is beautiful. 🎥🙌🏻👌
Weird name but beautiful place. Really love the tour. As usual your info is on point and the visuals match perfectly! Love a good cliff jump! Bear 🐻 warning! So cool! Great work!
I love Grundy, one of my favourite parks. We've seen many bears, one was right behind my head in the tent at night when backcountry camping on one of the islands (site B9) 😅 they're mostly harmless though. I would say that the bear visited you because the tote was left out, the best way to prevent visits is to have literally everything stored away in your vehicle. Bears are not only attracted to smells but also to items that look like they might have goodies inside 😉
Yes, we've definitely learned from that experience!! Although it was just firewood, now we know they are attracted to containers that could potentially have food. Our neighbours site did have food and other things out, so I think it was just passing through and decided to check it out 🤦♀️
You definitely got in depth with the whole process. Something I definitely appreciate. The woods surrounding the campgrounds are gorgeous. Great tip about the bears. Not something you want to wake up to. I'm all about kayaking. The park is rather well kept. Nothing like a good hike! Beer please! Love this video.
Wow, you guys are kayaking too! It’s been a year of fun firsts. And a shocking first too with the bear. Glad no one was out to see the bear face to face though.
Your spot on the site looks lovely, I don’t blame you for driving to the garbage bins, I wouldn’t want to risk meeting a hungry bear either🐻 So glad that you were all safely inside when one did show up at night! Kayaking looked beautiful, love your inflatable kayaks too.
Yes I was so glad we were inside but so sad to not get a good shot of the bear 🤣🤣 it was a beautiful park and we love our kayaks. So easy to take with us.
Alan didn't look too interested in cliff jumping 😆 Skylar would want to jump...but I would be like 😬 the whole time. I can't believe you saw a 🐻 and glad everyone was safe. This looks like a great park to visit, so many things to do...and a plus that you can still upload videos here!
Few things also to note: You could have got a sticker at French River Provincial Park, which has a day use museum and a walkable snowmobile bridge over the French River. Also, the French River Trading Post. And you can stay at Trestle Brewing with Harvest Hosts. Overall, love your videos. Similar to Camping with The Coles :)
Thanks so much!! Good to know about French River. We haven't been there yet, so thanks for the tip! We have a Harvest Host membership, so I'll have to check it out for one of our free weekends. Happy camping 😊
great video. we're heading up to Grundy on the 15th for a week. looking forward to it. wife is a little nervous about all the bear sitings. I figure as long as you keep your campsite clean and put your food and garbage away should be fine. looking forward to your next video.
Thank you! Yes I was nervous too, and we think the bear was only in our area because our neighbours in tents didn't put their garbage away. We kept our site very clean just to be on the safe side.
I spent several days camping in Grundy Lake Park, campsite #318, June 27-30, 2022 and we saw a bear on our campsite every day, or even 2 times per day. I just posted a blog and video about this memorable event. I bet it was the same bear!
I would have been so so scared of BEARS there! How do people use the bathroom/showers by themselves? That's also scary lol Glad there were a lot of activities to do though and it sounds like this was your favorite so that's even better!
Haha I WAS so scared about the bears when we were planning to go... then when we got there I was so disappointed I didn't see one then we HAD one on our site and didn't evenget a good shot 🤣🤣
As much as I have plenty of respect for black bears, I strongly believe that "campsite bears" are really harmless, they're only after people's food, NOT the people...
All those years of reading Berenstain Bears had me only feeling comforted when you read "Bear Country" on the sign. 🤣🐻🚨 It's probably not a great survival instinct.
Just need to comment about your comment about the dump station and being blocked by people getting water. Most people dumping are before 2pm and people getting water is after 2pm.
That was Smokey the Bear reminding us to prevent forest fires. Totally safe situation. 🐻
Exactly. Only you can prevent forest fires! 😂
This is one of your best videos.
Absolutely fantastic work! Music selection, audio recording, shots, composition of your camera, and overall atmosphere of the scenes is just amazing. The part with the kayaks is beautiful. 🎥🙌🏻👌
Thanks so much!! I really appreciate the support.

Gotta love parks with activities and great amenities. Thank you for the tour!
Yes we loved this park for all the activities it had.
Thank Y , I hope to visite this Park , really it's wonderful ..

I completely agree!

Good revue, we have taken a few of your adventures and have had good results.
Oh thank you, and that's great to hear 😊
That's a great park. I love that kind of camping. Lot's to do, enjoy
It was a lot of fun! 👍

Thanks so much, it's an awesome park, my favourite one so far. And, always beer!! 🤣
Came back to watch again.
Great video, we will be up that way soon and will have to check it out!
Thanks! Hope you enjoy your time up north!
Wow, you guys are kayaking too! It’s been a year of fun firsts. And a shocking first too with the bear. Glad no one was out to see the bear face to face though.
Yes I'm very glad we were inside the trailer for that encounter 😅. And the kayaking was awesome.
Hello! Thank you for the lovely tour. Enjoyed watching. Have a great day 😊
Thanks so much!
You’re so good with these videos 🤗
So much to do at this site! But ummm…the bears 😳😣 I’d be so nervous 🙈😅
Haha yeah I was a wee bit nervous about the bears... but I got over it fairly soon.
@@TheAverageTourist 😅😅
Lovely campsite ! Nice bar to go for a drink! 😁👍 All the best! Kaat
That's a nice lake Park. They have reasonable amenities as well. Great place to camp. Food at the restaurant looks yum.... I would go for kayak too.
It was a great park to spend a few nights. It was definitely tasty food at the restaurant too.

Yes I was so glad we were inside but so sad to not get a good shot of the bear 🤣🤣 it was a beautiful park and we love our kayaks. So easy to take with us.
That was a great video I'm actually going to go and look at a trailer like yours because I think it's really easy to trail
It's the perfect size for us and we really like how easy it is to take camping and tow 👌
Alan didn't look too interested in cliff jumping 😆 Skylar would want to jump...but I would be like 😬 the whole time.
I can't believe you saw a 🐻 and glad everyone was safe.

Haha yeah, we aren't that adventurous 🤣🤣 the bear was enough excitement for one weekend. Surprisingly it had great cell reception!!
@@TheAverageTourist yea seeing a bear that close would be exciting enough 😆
I actually think your campground had better reception than our apartment 🤣
Very interesting video, nice place to explore, very well edited travel video....

Haha yeah, you probably don't want to try to befriend these bears... though they do look pretty cute and friendly from a safe distance. 😂
Just need to comment about your comment about the dump station and being blocked by people getting water. Most people dumping are before 2pm and people getting water is after 2pm.
Yes good to point out. Thinking of any early bird arrivals... they may hit the later crowd who leave closer to 2pm.
You guys have to go to Algonquin to see moose, every time i go I see some
We are going later this summer and I hope we see moose 🤞
@@TheAverageTourist I hope you do too, just found your channel and I’m loving it. More camping the better
