About
North Buck Lake Campground is located in North Buck Lake Provincial Recreation Area, 14km northeast of Boyle on Hwy. 663, and 4km north on access road. With many bays and coves to poke around in, North Buck Lake is ideal for watersports and fishing. Be sure to watch the shoreline for nesting birds, and give them lots of space.
Reservations can be made 90 days in advance of arrival date.
Firewood: Firewood cost $10.00 for 1.5 cubic feet
Water: Water is available from a hand pump. Although Alberta Parks strives to maintain water quality, we recommend that you bring your own drinking water.
