Are you the owner of Canwood Regional Park?
Built for sports players and outdoor enthusiasts alike, Canwood Regional Park in Canwood No. 494, nestled in the Canwood Regional Forest, is your go-to destination. Harold, the dedicated park organizer, has transformed this space into a vibrant hub for activities and relaxation.
The park houses a nine-hole grass green golf course with top-notch watered fairways, multiple shale ball diamonds, and essential amenities like a shower house, flush bathrooms, and electrified campsites complete with picnic tables and fire boxes. For families, there's a playground and plenty of walking trails. Seasonal campers can reserve spots to enjoy extended stays.
A mere 3 km from the park lies the Village of Canwood. Here, visitors can access full gas, groceries, ATM, clinic, pharmacy, bar, liquor outlet, and daily mail services. If booked in advance, guests can also indulge in mini golf, bowling, skating, and community events in town. Nearby lakes offer additional fishing, boating, and swimming options, all within a half-hour drive.
Founded by local merchants in 1959 and achieving regional park status in 1961, volunteers have continually upgraded the space under Harold's watchful eye. The golf course expanded to nine holes, and modern amenities such as shower-equipped washrooms and well-maintained fairways were added for visitor convenience.
Canwood Regional Park prides itself on accessibility. Harold ensures that all facilities are wheelchair accessible, including washrooms, kitchens, picnic areas, and rental halls. The park maintains strict policies on age restrictions for rentals, leash rules for pets, and alcohol consumption regulations.
A highlight of the season is the Penguin Classic Ball Tournament, bringing competitors together for spirited play. Fees for camping and golfing are dynamic, with electric and water campsite options, golf memberships, and rental services for carts, clubs, and pull carts available.
Whether it’s hitting the fairways, exploring the forest trails, or joining in on the events, players and visitors will find an engaging and welcoming atmosphere at Canwood Regional Park, thanks to Harold’s dedicated efforts.
