Discover Lakeshore


About 25 miles east of Detroit lies Lakeshore, Ontario. French colonists arrived and founded Lakeshore in the 18th century, with the nearby Lake St. Clair serving as obvious inspiration for the name. Three other rivers near town played a pivotal role in the fur trade that made this area such a popular destination for travelers, farmers, and traders alike. Slavery was abolished in the 1800s in the area, which resulted in an abundance of jobs boosting the economy.

However, the economy, trade, and convenience were only a few of the reasons why so many people settled in Lakeshore. The sheer beauty of the lake continues to draw millions to this area. The sparkling clear-blue water surrounded by rugged wilderness is unlike anywhere within thousands of miles. If you're looking to discover the rich history of Ontario or spend hours lost in the wild outdoors, book an RV in Lakeshore.

The Great Outdoors of Lakeshore, ON

Drive your RV rental from Lakeshore right up to the sandy beaches of Lake St. Clair for a day on the water. Visiting the area without seeing the lake is nearly impossible given that the city sits right on the its shores. While fishing and boating are generally two of the most popular activities on the lake, many people swim in the cold water to combat the heat during the warm season. You can also choose to set up a nice picnic on the beach or sunbathe on the sand.

About half an hour‘s drive south of town, you can visit Lake Erie, one of the Great Lakes. Take the Lakeshore motorhome rental down to Leamington, where you'll have instant access to the water. While the Great Lakes aren't known to be the warmest waters in the world, they're certainly perfect for cooling off on a hot day. Not only that, but the world-famous views presented by Lake Erie in addition to recreational opportunities like fishing, boating, and hiking make the lake a must-see if you're staying in the area.

If you're looking for a little bit less traffic, rent an RV in Lakeshore and head west to the Detroit River. It sits right on the border of the USA and Canada, making it an iconic landmark. Take pictures of the famous bridges, take a refreshing swim, or go fishing. Boating and swimming far enough south will actually bring you right back into Lake Erie. Following the river north will bring you up to Lake St. Clair. More than a place for swimming, the Detroit River is most well-known for being a place of historical importance.
