Our Camp

Camper Cabins

Built in 1927, Sparrow Lake Camp’s beautiful Cabin Row is a long-standing source of pride. Featuring 13 original cabins alongside the newer Leadership Academy, Cabin Row offers a total of 182 bunks.

The cabins are unheated and designed for classic summer comfort, with large screened windows that keep bugs out while allowing cool lake breezes in. Each cabin contains 12 fixed bunk beds lining the walls, leaving generous space for indoor games, gathering, and social time. All upper bunks are equipped with safety railings.

Every cabin includes an electrical outlet, hard-wired smoke detectors, and a fire extinguisher.

We are currently remoulding cabins with cozier bunks and more space for privacy - this will take place over the next few years. Currently the cabins for our youngest cabins have been updated.

The Leadership Academy features a central common area, two smaller private bedrooms, and two large bunk rooms.

Due to their age, camper cabins are not fully accessible and require stepping up to enter.

Please note:

Bunks are slightly smaller than a standard twin bed.
Campers must bring their own pillow and bedding or sleeping bag; these are not provided.
Laundry facilities are available on site in the event of accidents.

WASHROOMS & TOILETS

The main washhouse is equipped with toilets, sinks, and showers, separated by gender. Additional individual portable restroom facilities are situated around the camp as well.

Please Note:

Like many summer camps, camper cabins do not contain their own washrooms.

HEALTHCARE FACILITIES

A full-time medical staff member is on site 24/7 during all residential camp sessions. These staff members are either nurses (RN’s, RPN’s, or NP’s), paramedics, or other trained and experienced medical personnel. We maintain contact with local physicians for consultation as needed, and all staff are trained in first-aid and ready to help! In the event that campers require additional medical attention, Sparrow Lake Camp is located 25 minutes from Soldiers Memorial Hospital in Orillia, or 40 minutes from Bracebridge Medical Centre Walk-In Clinic. We are also just 15 minutes from the closest fire and ambulance stations. An AED is on site.

Our Waterfront

Sparrow Lake Camp is surrounded by over 2 km of shoreline on Ontario’s beautiful Sparrow Lake, which is part of the Trent-Severn Waterway System connecting Lake Ontario to Georgian Bay. The lake is a popular spot for boaters and anglers, and a great place to cool off on a hot summer day.
