Quick Overview

Lambton Shores is a municipality along the southeastern shore of Lake Huron in Lambton County, encompassing the popular beach communities of Grand Bend, Forest, and Thedford. It has several dump stations for RVers, with some offering free access. The area's RV dump station and sani-dump facilities serve the heavy summer beach traffic that flows into the Grand Bend area, one of southwestern Ontario's most popular summer destinations for families and weekend campers. The sanitary dump station access here is important for the many RVers who camp at the Pinery Provincial Park and the private campgrounds that line the Highway 21 corridor along the lakeshore. Grand Bend's beaches, warm water, and vibrant summer scene draw RVers from across the province, and having dump stations nearby keeps everything running smoothly. On busy summer weekends, the beach strip in Grand Bend gets packed with day-trippers, so it's smart to dump early in the morning before the crowds roll in. The Pinery itself is one of Ontario's best provincial parks for RV camping -- the sites are large, the trail network is excellent, and the beach access is far less hectic than the main Grand Bend strip.
