Have you camped in an oTENTik yet . . . ?

This is the best picture I could get from my kayak of the new oTENTik at Mallorytown Landing (Ontario, Canada) after a good day's paddle in the 1000 Islands. The beautiful sunshine and glare from the clear water in the St. Lawrence River kept getting in my way. It's a happy and welcome problem!

oTENTiks are exclusive to Parks Canada, new for 2013, and found in numerous awesome parks across Canada. In the summer of 2013, Thousand Islands National Park installed some oTENTik tents (a cross between a cabin and a tent) on the popular islands of Camelot, Gordon, and McDonald, and one on the mainland waterfront at beautiful Mallorytown Landing.

I tested the Mallorytown Landing oTENTik this August. Two thumbs up!

For more information about the new oTENTiks and images of Mallorytown Landing, my next story is up on The Great Waterway, a cool Ontario tourism website where I'm a regular blogger. 

What I like about the cool new oTENTik at Mallorytown Landing in the 1000 Islands

Special thanks to the people at Parks Canada and Thousand Islands National Park for their awesome help and service. I really like the new oTENTiks and had a great trip in the region.

Happy trails!
