Saskatchewan Parks - Moose Mountain

Fresh air, blue skies and bacon crackling in the skillet as the morning sun drives the shadows out of Fish Creek Campground.  Wrap your hands around that warm cup of coffee, take a deep breath and savour the feeling of waking up to nature instead of work.

Moose Mountain Provincial Park has been a popular getaway for more than 70 years – it’s one of Saskatchewan’s original provincial parks.  Today’s visitors can enjoy a stay as rustic or refined as they wish.  Pitch a tent in a cozy nook, park the camper trailer in a lovely, level spot, slip that big RV unit into a fully-serviced site or rent a cabin or hotel room right inside the park.

Potable water, clean washrooms and a hot morning shower are always close at hand.  Firewood is, too.  Bask in that warm golden glow of the evening campfire and ponder the important things, like alternate ingredients for s’mores.

Camping

Moose Mountain is a Reserve-A-Site Park.  Make a Reservation!

Moose Mountain, a refreshing experience, is an island of birch and ash nestled in the southeast corner of the province.  You may be surprised by just how well-treed the campground is.  Combine this with level sites, and easy access to service centres, firewood and more, and you may never want to go home.  In addition to being a great summer destination, Moose Mountain offers wonderful fall camping opportunities.  You’ll be swept away as the leaves change colours, and sun continues to shine bright.

There are two campgrounds with campsites:

  • Electric Sites:  209 (near a service centre)
  • Full Service Sites:  11
  • Non-electric Sites:  113 (near a service centre)
  • Group Sites:  2 (40 non-electric)
  • Overflow Sites:  100

Group Camping

Group Camping Area A:  This, the larger of the two group camping areas, is located near the Kenosee Lake Riding Academy.  Book the whole area for your school group, family reunion or next ‘get together’.  Campers must stop in at the Fishcreek Campground office and pick up a camping permit.  These are all non-electric sites, with no power available.  Picnic tables, a wood pile, pit toilets and barbecue stands are on site.

Group Camp Area B:  This group camping area is located just west of Fishcreek Campground just before the turn-off to the church camps.  It will hold up to 15 camping units and there are picnic tables, a wood pile, pit toilets and a campfire area.

For more information on Group camping, contact the park office at (306) 577-2600 or (306) 577-2611 (summer only).  All bookings of group camping sites require a non-refundable reservation fee.

Seasonal:  Seasonal camping is available at Fishcreek Campground.  If you’d rather just leave your camping unit here for the summer, why not consider a seasonal campsite?  Specific sites are designated “Seasonal” and campers are chosen by a lottery draw for sites near the end of April.  Sites are available from the May long weekend until the end of September.

For more information on Seasonal Camping, please contact the campground office at (306) 577-2600.

In-Park Services

Moose Mountain offers most everything you need right in the park.  From a well stocked grocery store that also has great ice cream and supplies, to a full service hotel and conference centre, and two restaurants; you’ll never have to leave.  However, if you can’t find what you’re looking for, the nearby community of Carlyle is a 15-minute drive away.

Kenosee Inn Resort Hotel:  This hotel with log cabin rentals is the only accommodation right inside the park.  It is open year round and features an indoor pool, hot tub, restaurant & lounge.  Walk across the street to the golf course or just walk out the front door and you are on the main beach!

During the winter months, there is ample parking for snowmobiles/trailers and you can access the trails right from your doorstop.

The Kenosee Inn has also purchased condominiums for rent in the village of Kenosee Lake (adjacent to the park).  Call them for rental information.  Phone:  (306) 577-2099.

Allison’s Beach Store:  Keith Allison has been operating a great beach store for the past 35+ years!  They offer a full line of groceries, fresh produce, meat, sundries, camping supplies, souvenir clothing, an ice cream parlour and mini-golf course.  The store is located just in front of the Kenosee Inn Resort Hotel on the main beach parking lot.  Phone:  (306) 577-2234.

Club 19 Restaurant:  This family restaurant is located at the golf course.  Enjoy a cold beverage after your round or just stop in for a great lunch or supper.  Sit inside or on the balcony while overlooking the entire park.  You have got to see the view from that balcony in the fall!  Phone:  (306) 577-4422.

Golf Kenosee:  Golf Kenosee offers you one of the most scenic golf courses in western Canada.  Golf Kenosee’s fairways are wonderfully sheltered by a healthy forest of poplar, ash, fir and white birch trees.  With mature trees guarding both sides of most fairways, a premium is placed on straight, accurate shots.  At Golf Kenosee the scenery and the wildlife are as much of an experience as the golf itself.  Golf Kenosee’s Clubhouse (Club 19) offers meals or snacks and a pro-shop for all your golfing needs.  Sit on the 2nd floor balcony and relax after your round while you overlook the beautiful Kenosee Lake and area.  Banquet facilities are available (capacity 150 people).  Catering is available for large and small tournaments.  Phone:  (306) 577-4422.

The Kenosee Superslides:  On a hot day, the place to be is the Kenosee Superslides!  This privately-owned, waterslide park offers kiddie slides or, if you’re brave enough, try the eight-storey free fall (takes 3 seconds to reach the bottom)!  If you’d like a slower pace, ride the 800’ lazy canal on an inner-tube or just sit back and enjoy the warmth of the 150-man hot tub. 

Pack a lunch or buy food on-site at Cruiser’s Family Restaurant or pick up that special souvenir at Reflections Boutique & Gift Shop.  Change rooms, showers, lockers and double tube rentals.  Unlimited free parking.  No alcohol or sunflower seeds please!

During the summer, the park is open 7 days a week from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., weather permitting.  Phone (306) 577-2343.

Kenosee Lake Riding Academy:  Enjoy the scenic back country of Moose Mountain Provincial Park on horseback.  Daily guided trail rides, pony rides for small children and overnight rides available to groups.  Reservations preferred.  Phone: (306) 577-2278 or 739-2273.
