I'm in the early stages of converting my skoolie in Ontario (
theskoolielife.com - home page.) I live in a small town. To find a place to park it during the conversion, I went cold calling to small businesses with roomy parking lots. I found a car mechanic who is letting me park there for modest rent.
For camping,, there are lovely provincial parks in Ontario. I also have joined Harvest Host / Boondockers Welcome. They are just for overnight stays, but some of the settings look interesting.
