Recreational Facilities
Our facility spans 70 acres of country close to the city. Pavillion style recreation halls, lots of picnic table areas, flush toilets (porta-potties mid October thru mid April) and hand wash stations are available to all our visitors. You will find a small secluded woodlot with nature trails to the back of the site, and concentrated at the front of the property is a composite farm, numerous sports fields including volleyball, soccer, baseball, field hockey, tetherball, basketball and three adventure playgrounds.

Heated buildings for cold days are available and lunch areas are provided as part of your programme or by request. A barbeque shack and fire pit are also available for cooking and campfires, depending on your programme schedule. Picnic tables, parking and sun shelters are plentiful throughout the grounds.

Next door, a 45 acre riding stable, Cedar Creek, complements our site and is available for boarding, part boarding, lessons, camp and birthday parties.
