Mille Roches Campground & Day‑Use Area Restoration: Project Update 1

Mille Roches Campground & Day‑Use Area Revitalization

The St. Lawrence Parks Commission is undertaking a major restoration of Mille Roches Campground and the Mille Roches Beach & Day‑Use Area on the Long Sault Parkway. These improvements are part of a broader project designed to modernize essential infrastructure, enhance guest amenities, and support the long‑term environmental sustainability of SLPC parks.

The Mille Roches Campground & Day‑Use Area Restoration Project will replace aging systems, many now more than 60 years old, with modern, municipal‑connected infrastructure while introducing new, accessible guest facilities. When completed, both Mille Roches sites will reopen with improved comfort, accessibility, environmental resilience, and operational reliability.

This project aims to:

• Enhance guest comfort, safety, and accessibility.
• Modernize critical water and wastewater systems by connecting Mille Roches facilities to the Township of South Stormont’s municipal networks.
• Replace end-of-life facilities with new, fully accessible washrooms and changerooms at the campground and a new canteen with washrooms and rinse showers at the beach and day-use area.
• Improve longterm environmental sustainability by eliminating aging septic systems and wells, reducing ecological risk along the St. Lawrence River corridor.
