what to expect

Sharbot Lake Provincial Park is situated on two beautiful clear bodies of water, Black Lake and Sharbot Lake. The park offers day use and camping opportunities.

The campground has four distinctive loops. Beach Front and Maple Grove offer a mix of electrical sites and tent sites close to and adjacent to the water. The Point offers small campsites, perfect for a tent, on the lakeshore. The Ridge offers campsites further away from amenities and some walk in-sites with spectacular views of Sharbot Lake. The park offers recreational opportunities including swimming at one of the two sand beaches, a boat launch, plus canoe, kayak, and paddleboard rentals. The park also features two trails, a picnic shelter, a playground, and a dog swimming area.
