Chitek Lake
Overview
Chitek Lake is a premier destination in north-central Saskatchewan, offering a seamless blend of lakeside relaxation and forest exploration. Known for its clear waters and lush, green surroundings, the area provides a peaceful retreat for those looking to escape the bustle of city life. The park serves as a gateway to the province's northern wilderness while maintaining a welcoming community atmosphere for both seasonal residents and short-term RV travelers.
Location & Surroundings
Situated within the Resort Village of Chitek Lake, just north of Spiritwood, the park is nestled among mixed-wood forests. This transition zone between agricultural land and the northern boreal woods creates a diverse ecological landscape. The park is conveniently located steps away from the shores of Chitek Lake, which acts as the central hub for all water-based recreation and offers scenic views of the rugged Saskatchewan shoreline.
Amenities & Park Features
Travelers will find essential facilities designed for a comfortable stay, including electrified campsites with various power options and access to potable water. The park features a well-maintained boat launch and a sandy public beach area, perfect for summer afternoons. On-site modern washrooms and a children’s playground ensure that families have everything they need for an extended stay. The layout is spacious enough to accommodate modern RV rigs while preserving a sense of privacy.
Nearby Attractions & Things to Do
Outdoor enthusiasts often visit for the exceptional fishing opportunities, targeting walleye and northern pike in the deep lake waters. The nearby Chitek Lake Golf Course offers a challenging nine-hole game just minutes from the campground. For those who prefer land-based adventures, the Packer’s Trail provides a scenic route for hiking and birdwatching. During the winter months, the region remains active as a popular destination for snowmobiling and ice fishing.
Who This Park Is Best For
This park is ideal for family vacationers who appreciate a balance of structured amenities and raw natural beauty. It is a fantastic choice for anglers and boaters who want direct access to one of the region's best fishing lakes. Because of its quiet, scenic environment, it also appeals to retirees and nature photographers looking for a serene basecamp to explore the Saskatchewan wilderness at a slower, more intentional pace.

Beautiful place to camp and all amenities available. Pelican beach is a treasure and not a long walk from the main campground. Beware that if you want firewood you need to be at the campsite before 3:30 or you will be out of luck until the next day at that time. There is no personal to talk to if you arrive later in the day…everything is online and the phone number available is not answered after about 5:00 pm.

Quite nice as far as sites though mine needed some cleaning of garbage from last visitors . When I booked I was under the impression water and electric was at the site we booked but we needed to use 2 garden hoses to bring water to my camper. The shower house was nice but 2 of 3 toilets were out of order and the water pressure was poor. So wasn't impressed at that. Those items aside it was overall a decent stay.

Pros: Nice location, lots of friendly people, beaches are nice, good fishing, nice boat launch, garbage cans emptied regularly, grass was nicely mowed. Cons: Lots of seasonal and long term campers with no regard for the rules, cars parked everywhere often blocking the road, no parking at the service centre to shower, so if you stay at the west sites you can’t drive to the service centre (tough if you have small children or are limited mobility), bathrooms weren’t cleaned very frequently and were quite gross at times, other campers made adapters to tap into power behind the panels at electrical sites to power non-electrical sites. Edit: Appears to be a theft problem. Our dog lead and some spare blocking was stolen from our site while we were in the water.

Pelican campgrounds were not clean, cans all over playcenter area. Ladies bathroom didn't work, when fixed, the toilet still didn't flush properly. Always out of toilet paper. Large bathroom had no hot water, very unclean, toilet paper out often. The garbage bins outside were not emptied all weekend, garbage overflowed. Fire pit was full of garbage when we arrived, unable to burn due to fireban. Showers were not walking distance and had no water pressure. Also no parking available at showers

Camped here for 3 days with my family. It was really nice and clean and quiet. Has a beautiful beach with a playground and flush toilets in the change room. The showers were clean and very nicely renovated. All in all it is a wonderful place to camp; we would definitely come here again!
