About the campsite
The great adventure
Located in the beautiful region of the Eastern Townships, Camping Aventure Mégantic offers a 5 star experience, in a region where Nature is at the heart of its main attractions.
History of the Campground
It was in May 2015 that a new campsite with 138 pitches opened its doors in Frontenac, with new facilities, heated swimming pools, two water slides, a playground for children, sports areas and entertainment for the whole family. In 2018, there was the addition of 30 campsites and four-season ready-to-camp units (Cabania, MégaPOD and Wooden Yurt). Since the beginning of the adventure, the co-owners, Julie Rouillard and Francis Therrien, have spared no effort to make Camping Aventure Mégantic a quality four-season vacation spot, going from a classification of 4 to 5 stars in 2018.
A 3rd phase of expansion is finalized in 2023 to obtain a campsite with 263 camping and ready-to-camp sites. In 2024, they finalize their 10th season by bringing back the Camping of the Year and Sustainable Development award.
The strategy of these managers focuses on sustainable development, in particular through the use of quality materials, and in certain cases, recycled materials. Equipment belonging to businesses and buildings in downtown Lac-Mégantic was salvaged following the 2013 tragedy and the water slides come from a former water park in the region. The fences that encircled the town center now demarcate the campsite's dog park, while an old bus has been repurposed into an entertainment room for teenagers.

Our 5-star quality
It is with great pride that Camping Aventure Mégantic renews the 5 star classification from Camping Québec. Only 22 campsites out of 1026 campsites in 2023 across the province of Quebec have managed to obtain this classification.
It is by ensuring the high quality of our facilities, the diversity of our activities for both children and adults as well as all adjacent services that we have succeeded in obtaining this classification. Each campsite is visited every three years in order to have its campsite evaluated and following this visit, it receives its classification which it must permanently display in view of the public. The owners, their families and employees have put every effort into achieving this perfect score. Nothing is left out during the evaluation, because it checks both the campsite's facilities (buildings, swimming pool, play modules, etc.), the activities, as well as the services offered (WiFi, laundry, reception, etc.). ).
