Inverhuron Provincial Park

Inverhuron Provincial Park lies on the shoreline of Lake Huron next to the village of Inverhuron, and it attracts visitors to its warm sandy beach, rolling sand dunes, nature trails and inspiring sunsets. 

In fact, people have gravitated to this area for centuries. The hamlet of Inverhuron and its neighbouring communities of Kincardine to the south and Saugeen Shores north along the coast have a long history. It traces back to pioneer settlements over a century ago and Indigenous cultures for thousands of years before that. There is even an 1800s pioneer cemetery and remains of an old lime kiln inside the park. Because of its long history, Ontario Parks has designated Inverhuron as a heritage-class park. 

Originally established in the mid 1950s, the park was restricted to day-use only in the 1970s when the Bruce Nuclear Power Plant began operating nearby in Tiverton. However, when the plant was decommissioned in 1998, Ontario Parks began work to develop new facilities for overnight camping again. In 2006, the 288 hectare park was reopened as a seasonal destination with designated camping sites. 

Today, Inverhuron features three campgrounds with 125 spacious, level sites, all within a short distance to comfort stations with flush toilets and showers. Treed lots allow for privacy, and larger sites feature electrical service for RVs. Two sites are designated for group camping, and feature a hydro pedestal for each. For visitors who prefer roofed accommodation, there are four rustic one-room camp cabins available that can accommodate up to five people on two double and single bunk beds.
