Sparrow Lake Camp

4 sites ¡ Tents126 acres ¡ Severn Bridge, ON
Sparrow Lake Camp is situated on the southernmost tip of the majestic Canadian Shield.  The site is known to have been a campground for bands of the Huron people prior to the European intrusion.  It is considered probable that Samuel de Champlain, the first European to explore Huronia, spent a night on this site in the 17th Century.In 1892, what would become the west side of the current property was sold by pioneer Captain Thomas Stanton to Toronto's renowned Massey family to act as their summer resort.  The resort sported the main lodge, dining room, and cottages and was only accessible by train and steamer. From the onset, the Masseys used the site as a summer retreat for the Young Men's Bible League of the Central Methodist Church. Today, the property is a thriving summer camp that also offers overnight tent stays with stunning lake views.

The best camping near Queen Elizabeth II Wildlands Provincial Park guide

Overview

About

Embark on an adventure through the untamed wilderness of Queen Elizabeth II Wildlands Provincial Park. With over 33,505 hectares of diverse habitats, this park is a haven for backcountry enthusiasts. Navigate rugged canoe routes, traverse over 100 km of the Ganaraska Hiking Trail, and immerse yourself in the serenity of semi-wilderness camping amid pristine landscapes.

When to go

The best time to visit Queen Elizabeth II Wildlands Provincial Park is during the warmer months, from late spring to early fall, when the park's natural beauty is at its peak and the trails are most accessible. Winter offers a serene, snowy landscape, but be prepared for cold temperatures and limited access.

  • Cellular service is unreliable; plan your trip with safety and communication in mind.
  • Adhere to Leave No Trace principles to protect the park's fragile ecosystems.
  • Check for any seasonal fire bans or boil water advisories before your visit.
