Please note that we are the Friends of Charleston Lake Park and
we cannot book campsites. To book a campsite at Charleston Lake Provincial Park, please go to reserve a camping spot.
Also Note: If you are coming to the Park from the Ottawa or Cornwall areas, where concentrations of the Emerald Ash Borer have been found: this destructive insect has not been found in the Park.
Please do not bring ash firewood with you.

The winners of our 2011 canoe raffle were Andrew Silver of Toronto and Joe Cvitovic of Montreal .
The winner of the camping gear was Cathy Donnelly of Tweed, Ontario. Her family has made a tradition of camping in the Park on Thanksgiving Weekend, where they love walking the trails. She was particularly anxious to win the camping gear, and insisted to her family that she had in fact bought that winning ticket.
