This past weekend my family and I did some camping in beautiful Gatineau Park! We stayed in a 4 season tent/yurt at Lac Phillippe. This was the first time our family had stayed in a yurt, but it won’t be our last!

yourteAs a mom of 2 little ones this was not only the easiest set up but it made for enjoyable camping for all of us. A table inside, beds up off the ground, a propane cook top and none of which we had to bring! The campsite was beautiful and there was so much wildlife which my little girls LOVED watching…from spotting birds to following chipmunks, they were little explorers. When looking for stuff to do with the family this summer, remember to check out all that Ottawa, the Valley and the Outaouais have to offer and check out Gatineau Park!
