Nature’s next door.
About the park
Pinehurst Lake is a 193 hectare (477 acre)
park with a nine hectare (23 acre) spring-fed
kettle lake that was formed during the last ice
age. The lake provides great swimming, fishing,
ice fishing and canoeing. Camp at over 230
serviced or unserviced, radio-free campsites.
The park also features nine km of hiking trails,
some winding through spectacular examples of
Carolinian forest. In winter, the trails are popular
for snowshoeing.
Our staff is here to make your visit as enjoyable
as possible. Should you have questions, please
do not hesitate to contact us.
Camping, fishing, hiking or boating, our parks
are as close as your own backyard.
Join us at one of 11 Grand River Parks. From quiet
solitude to the delight of a family camping
vacation, our parks showcase the best the area has
to offer.
Pinehurst Lake is open between May and October
from 8 a.m. until sunset, and in the winter when
conditions allow. For more information including
fees, park amenities or to reserve equipment or
group facilities, please ask at the gatehouse, call
the park, or visit www.grandriver.ca/parks.
