Built near a dam and reservoir that constricts Avonlea Creek. Dunnet Regional Park covers 50 acres of naturally treed valley, and is officially open from May until mid September. The park has much to offer. The main attractions are camping, swimming, boating and fishing. Other activities include mini golf, canteen, hiking, multiple play areas and baseball diamonds. We offer eight ball diamonds, all have grass outfields with dirt infields, tall mesh backstops on metal poles. Pets are permitted in the park, but they must be on a leash at all times. In 2020, Dunnet Regional Park was named Park of the Year!!!
Grocery store, Co-op Gas & Convenience Store, Scotia Bank (ATM) Radius Credit Union (ATM), library and museum, all located in Avonlea.
Dunnet is the perfect place to stay while touring nearby attractions such as the Claybank Brick Plant National Historic Site, an 18-hole championship golf course, Long Creek Golf & Country Club or the Avonlea Heritage Museum. The museum hosts guided tours through the Avonlea Badlands and the beautiful Blue Hills, where visitors can view 70 million year old rock, native effigies, an aboriginal ceremonial site and much more.
In the early 1960s, the PFRA (Prairie Farm Rehabilitation Administration) constructed a dam near Avonlea, creating a 600 acre lake. Local residents formed a regional park authority, which purchased land containing 300 year old ash and maples and developed it into a campground. The park was officially opened in 1967 and named for a beloved local physician. Nearby in the Blue Hills, visitors can view 70 million year old rock exposures, part of the Bearpaw formation, as well as native effigies and a buffalo jump site near an aboriginal ceremonial site, complete with healing and sweat lodges. The nearby Claybank Brick Plant National Historic Site, which dates to 1912, provides visitors with a rare example of early industry. There are museums in Wilcox, Avonlea and Briercrest.
Campsites: Level grass/gravel. Wheelchair accessible washrooms and showers are available. This park features a wheelchair accessible concession.
