I support renewing the cottage leases at Rondeau Provincial Park provided this lease extension is used to develop a permanent solution for cottagers to own the land their cottages sit on. The Rondeau cottage community has co-existed well with the park eco-system for over 100 years. Read more

I love cottaging in Rondeau Park. I have travelled all the way from Dusseldorf, Germany to visit there. I love the natural environment, observing the local flora and fauna, swimming, sailing on the lake, canoeing, and just walking the beach and watching the sunset. Read more

As someone who has lived across the bay from Rondeau Provincial Park for most of my life, there have always been cottagers. Rondeau Park has more than adequate space to allow cottagers, day users, campers and season permit visitors to enjoy many activities. Read more

November 12, 2022 We are not happy with the ERO Notice ID 019-6142. Two previous short-term lease extensions were issued so we could talk about a long-term solution, however Ontario Parks refused to follow the Minister's orders... so here we go again. Read more

The leases for the in park cottages should absolutely be extended to December 31, 2024. It seems like the process of these negotiations have taken too long already with no end in sight. I believe there should be no expiry date, rather have a renewal date for visiting the lease fees again. Read more

I am a cottage lease holder at Rondeau Provincial Park. I am also a keen naturalist and longstanding member of Nature London and Ontario Field Ornithologists. There has been an unnecessarily polarized and misleading debate about the presence of cottages in Rondeau. Read more
