Calm,
cool,
serene
natural
habitat
complete
with
cabins,
open
spaces
for
tent
pitching
and
cooking,
nestled
in
the
cool,
welcoming,
picturesque
hills
of
St.
Andrew
is
the
first
things
which
come
to
mind
when
thinking
of
this
beautiful
getaway.
A
place
where
colleagues
and
I
have
hosted
hikes
for
numerous
years,
there
are
trails
aplenty
and
comfortable
driving
areas
for
those
who
are
uninterested
in
the
trek.
Although
it
is
a
natural
and
protected
reserve,
the
ruggedness
has
been
erased
with
the
installation
of
electricity,
running
water
at
various
stand
pipes
strategically
placed
around
the
site
and
especially
near
the
spots
built
for
cooking,
flushable
male
and
female
outhouses
in
comfortable
reach,
tissue,
hand
towels
and
handsome
soap
dispensers
outfitted
to
gazebos
near
the
stand
pipes.
Garbage
bins
are
also
hard
to
miss.
Entry
fee
is
$400
per
person
and
hours
of
operation
are
9am
to
5
PM.
The
rangers
are
friendly
and
knowledgeable
and
stay
out
of
your
way.
Cabin
rental
is
also
available.
Mobile
data
tends
to
be
hard
to
pick
up
so
that
replaces
all
the
ruggedness
that
was
initially
softened
by
the
modern
amenities
mentioned,
and
unless
you
are
in
unmatched
company,
have
a
good
book
to
read
or
are
busy
with
no
time
for
your
phone,
you
had
better
find
games
to
play
or
new
plant
species
to
discover.
A+
for
the
directional
signs
to
various
parts
of
the
site
including
ample
parking,
the
informative
boards
of
the
types
of
flora
and
tid
bits
on
the
history
of
the
site.
I
would
recommend
it
to
students
looking
for
a
quiet
place
to
study,
groups
wanting
to
stage
a
retreat,
families
in
need
of
time
away
to
have
the
camping
experience
and
lovers
who
want
to
drink
in
the
romance
that
nature
offers.
There
are
no
snakes,
bears
or
wild
animals
to
contend
with,
and
the
view
of
Kingston
and
our
natural
harbour
simply
breathtaking.
