Campground Overview

The UEL Heritage Centre and Park is a mixture of history, camping, and family fun, all in one location.  It is made up of 72 acres, located on the scenic shores of the Bay of Quinte, along the Loyalist Parkway (Hwy #33) in the historic village of Adolphustown. The park is the site of the original landing of the first group of United Empire Loyalists, under Major Peter Vanalstine, which took place on June 16, 1784.  The first loyalists were settled on the grounds in tents, and spent their early days here before moving to their new homes.  The UEL Heritage Centre and Park is dedicated to the preservation of this important location. The UEL Heritage Centre & Park is owned and operated by the Bay of Quinte Branch of the United Empire Loyalists Association of Canada.

Camping

The park was established as a family campground and day-use facility by the Province of Ontario in 1956 and has served as such since that time. Campsites are available for overnight, weekly, or seasonal use.  The park’s beach and day-use area is ideally suited for family picnics and outings, as well as for larger groups. The park’s campground is known for its spacious sites, spreading shade trees, sandy beaches and acres of open grassy fields to walk the dog, play a game of baseball, or just unfold a chair and enjoy the breezes coming off the water. The park has two children’s play areas, two restroom facilities, and a camp store where you can stock up on snacks, borrow a book from the lending library, or cool down with some ice cream. Many of the lots are drive-through capable for the beginner or those with larger vehicles and our portable pumpout service (a.k.a. “the honey wagon”) means you can have your tank emptied without even being on-site.
