★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Our paddling trip was for six nights and seven days, and it was epic. We paddled Beaverhouse, Quetico, Jean, Boulder, Your, Badwater, West Bay, Quetico, and Beaverhouse Lakes. All in all it was a 43 mile loop. I loved the sound of the loons at dusk, was amazed by the sound of the army of mosquitos, and thrived during the grueling challenge of the Boulder Lake to Your Lake portage through the bog trail. It was a wonderful trip and the beauty of the park was worth every drop of blood and sweat.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ One of the last rustic parks left with back-country passes. You can grab your gear and go without booking sites. Canoe for days with or without portages. Staff are amazing and the wildlife is friendly. We are sad to see so many provincial parks get overdeveloped while Quetico stays rugged. We cannot say enough good things about this park.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A truly amazing park. Enjoyed a four night trip through Pickerel, Bisk, Beg, Bud, Fern, and Olifaunt Lake. Weather was ideal for the 3rd week of August, with minimal flies and mosquitoes. The fishing was also incredible with all four in our group having a fish on at the same time at one point. Fish the narrow channels between the lakes and both sides of the portage. Also saw two pairs of Trumpeter Swans, one with a group of 3 cygnets. A canoe trip of a lifetime!

The park is enormous and is made for portage with canoes but still has good family camping . We came with our four kids and it's a trip they will never forget !! Thanks to all the staff and rangers working to keep this place beautiful !!!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Only got to stay one night, highly regret not getting more time within this park. Would love more time to adventure the water systems. Had a huge thunder/lighting storm overnight (worst I’ve seen in all my years and a little frog found shelter with me (last photo!) LOL beautiful park none the less!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This park is a kayaking and canoeing paradise, with lots of great backcountry options. We stayed only one night at the park while passing through on a road trip, but had a chance to chat people up and learned that people travelled from afar for the back-country opportunities.
We stayed at Dawson Trail - Chippewa Campground: Site #1, and it was great. There was plenty of privacy and we had a little trail down to the lake where we could set up camp chairs and admire nature’s beauty. Site #3, right next to us, had a little deck on the water! Our site was spacious with a fully enclosed, round fire pit sunk into the ground.
The washrooms were close by - clean, spacious and warm with flushing toilets. All water provided by the park is potable (and delicious) even in the washrooms - a nice bonus.
The Teaching Trail and Fisher Trail make for a nice walk to get the blood moving after a long drive or sleeping on the ground.
Park staff were great. We reserved our place online before arriving and had a great, informative experience dealing with the park staff.
The only problem was the wood we purchased for our camp fire. It hadn’t been aged well, and you could watch the water steaming out as it burned. It was constant work to keep it burning and it never gave off much heat. The wood just smouldered until it was ash. It made for an uncomfortable September night.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Nice, calm place to visit. Has couple of beaches you could go and trails you can walk. Lady at the reception was extremely nice ! Explained everything about the park using a map. Needs a parking pass but got it for free the day we visited.
