A large lake-country park in northwest Saskatchewan with many campgrounds, sandy beaches and plenty of fishing and trails. Expect gravel roads, mosquitoes and bears.
Meadow Lake Provincial Park is a long chain of lakes and forest, and reviewers talk about it as a whole region rather than one spot. There are several campgrounds, including Greig Lake, Kimball Lake, Sandy Beach and Murray Doell, some busy and some tucked away. Visitors praise the clear water and sandy beaches, and in season the blueberries are everywhere.
Campers say the facilities are well run. Full-service sites fit most RVs, the tap water is good, and there are showers, laundry and free firewood. Greig Lake and Kimball have stores stocked with groceries and ice, an ice cream stand and mini golf, and one waterfront offers kayak and paddleboard rentals. Several reviewers found the campgrounds clean and the staff friendly, though one felt the sites themselves were nothing special.
Fishing and boating are a big part of the appeal, and several anglers call it a favourite, saying you can catch fish on most of the lakes. There are hiking and biking trails, towable sports on the lakes, and quiet corners where you rarely meet other campers. It is a winter destination too, with groomed snowmobile trails and a warm-up shelter at Waterhen.
Getting there means gravel roads, which surprised a few visitors. Mosquitoes can be heavy, bears are around, outhouse quality varies, and fire bans have affected some stays. One recent camper found the bridge on the way to a backcountry site had collapsed and had to cross the river, so check trail conditions before heading out.
