Metered electricity, market rates, and a 5% discount on your site fee. Georgian Bay Park in Tiny, Ontario has thought this through. Book a pull-through site, plug in, and pay for exactly what you use. "NOTICE TO EV OWNERS: If you are needing to charge your EV at your RV site's hydro hookup please book at any of the PULL THROUGH SITES as all these sites are metered."

Barrie is also nearby, about 20 miles away, with FLO, Ivy Charging Network, ChargePoint, and others. Tiny Township sits on the southern shore of Georgian Bay, and the park's metered approach means both the campground and the EV owner know exactly where they stand.
