greenwater lake
Greenwater is where I spent many summer days with my bros Scott, Greg, Dave and Craig. Being the youngest, it was mostly left up to Craig and I to make our own projects. Unfortunately, many of which ended in a trip to the Porcupine Plain hospital. I guess thats what you get when you leave two boys alone with rusty tools. Not too sure what our parents where exactly thinking...
Greenwater Lake Provincial park is a beautiful year round holiday resort surrounded by natural Saskatchewan terrain - rolling hills covered with a mixed forest of trembling aspen and spruce. The marina and Greenwater Lake itself are a wonderful contrast to the surroundings, and the recreational opportunities they present are touches that make Greenwater Lake Provincial Park a holiday must.
Greenwater Lake is a perfect getaway, starting with the creative playground, tennis court, and the new eighteen hole grass green golf course. You will find a change house, cafe and store conveniently close to the main beach. At nearby Fisherman's Cove you can take advantage of the year round amenities and enjoy licensed dining. Your children can even take swimming lessons at the Fisherman's Cove pool. Soothe your appetite with a frying pan favorite - walleye. Fish for your own walleye or land a northern pike and perch on Greenwater Lake or bait your hook at Marean Lake or Steiestol, the stocked trout lake. Boating and hiking the various trails are favorite ways to spend the day. Of course there is always an opportunity to find a cozy spot on the beach and soak up some sun. Greenwater Lake Provincial Park is full of camping options. Choose sites with electricity which are also close to showers and flush toilets, or select other sites that allow you to get "a little closer to nature". If you prefer something modern, Greenwater Lake has many rental accommodations and log cabins with kitchen facilities that are available year round. Whether you are planning a weekend getaway for two, a summer holiday for the family, convention or family reunion, Greenwater Lake will delight and satisfy you.
Winter in Greenwater Lake Provincial Park is just as exciting as summer. There are over 100 kilometers of groomed snowmobile trails that connect to Route 66 (which is part of the cross Canada snowmobile trail). There are also over 30 kilometers of cross country ski trails and whether it is winter or summer, the wildlife is always a pleasant surprise. You may even see an elk, deer, bear, or moose, wandering nearby. The wildlife, the natural beauty of the rolling hills, and Greenwater Lake itself are features that make this park a paradise in every season.

I keep trying to get a picture of the Blind Fiddler, but he's too elusive. Larry was trying to explain it to me one day and I just couldn't figure it out. Fortunately, Rocket Man is always ready to go.
