Winter caming at mew lake in Algonquin Park February 11, 2018: I spent the weekend at the Mew Lake Campsite. It is open in winter and the sites have electrical hook-ups.
Firewood can be purchased at the unmanned Mew Lake Camp Entrance. Bring cash to pay for the wood. A heated comfort station provides drinking water, flush toilets, showers and Laundromat.
