Beautiful, secluded park located near the end of Eagle Bay Road. The park features a recreational trail system with several loop options leading from the parking lot down to the shoreline. The moss trail is a favourite. The large parking area includes a vault toilet and garbage receptacle. Access by boat is difficult at low-water periods due to the rocky shoreline; however, the views across the lake from the point are unsurpassed.

Super fun for the whole family! The water slides are a suitable for younger kids as they aren’t as ‘thrilling’ as some others. You can bring a picnic or eat from the concession. Don’t forget the sunscreen and umbrellas as there are limited covered areas.
