Park / Area History

In the 1950s, John From, a professional landscaper and local land owner built a small summer park to provide some recreation facilities for residents of this area. Two lakes were dug, a golf course and a few campsites were built. In 1972, poor health caused Mr. From to offer the park for sale to the Regional Park Authority. The park is located along the Carlton Cart Trail, which was the most important overland route through nineteenth-century Saskatchewan, linking Fort Garry with Edmonton House during the fur trade era. The nearby Wolverine Historical Society shows artifacts from the surrounding area.

Camping

In two campground areas of the park there are 119 electrical/water sites and 10 non-electrical/non-water overflow sites. Each site has potable water, fire pits, and picnic tables. The sites are cut out of mature parkland forest, so aspen, willow and wild fruit trees dominate the campgrounds; hundreds of spruce trees have been planted in the past 20 years. Sites are large with a graveled pad, 30 amp electrical service. There are 4 fully functional washroom facilities in the park; including one in the Clubhouse/Concession (2 of which are wheelchair accessible).  The clubhouse also includes a restaurant as well as licensed dining area.
