About
This campground is found in Jackfish Lake Provincial Recreation Area. It is a small campground, with just a few campsites are nestled in the forest by the lake. There is a boat launch, and OHV trails nearby.
While campers may take advantage of the proximity to off-highway vehicle (OHV) trails, off-loading or operating OHVs inside the park is strictly prohibited. OHVs must remain on trailers until they reach the nearby trail systems and staging areas.
Operated by Westward Bound Campgrounds.
