During the summer months, bring your paddle board, paddle boat, canoe or kayak and explore the nearby islands and creeks on the spring fed lake. There are lots of coves to explore.

OTHER ACTIVITIES
There are lots of activities to do around the campgrounds and in the area for the entire family. New activities will be added in the summer of 2022. Basketball, tetherball, volleyball, badminton, and horseshoes.
If you are around in the winter bring up your trail bikes and go on a cycling adventure. Or when the ice is thick try out ice fishing. During the summer take out the mountain bikes and explore the surrounding forests. It’s also a short bike to the Marina and convenience store to check out local goods. Watch the numerous boaters bringing in their catch of the day or travelling to the nearby cottages at the multiple islands on the lake.
It’s a photographers paradise with all the wildlife, rocky terrain, gorgeous forests and views of the lake. Kick back, relax and explore!
