Ivanhoe Lake Provincial Park, Provincial park in Sudbury District, Canada

Ivanhoe Lake Provincial Park is a natural environment class park in the Unorganized North Part of Sudbury District, Ontario, 8 km southwest of Foleyet on Highway 101. It surrounds almost all of Ivanhoe Lake on the Ivanhoe River, in the James Bay drainage basin, and has 120 campsites, 64 with electrical hookup, plus a sandy swimming beach, showers, flush toilets, a store, canoe rental and a boat launch.

The reserve was established in 1957 to protect an area previously shaped by mining and timber operations that used lake systems for moving logs. Park designation transformed the landscape from resource extraction to recreation and conservation.

The park draws people seeking summer outdoor recreation through camping, fishing, and lake activities typical of Canadian wilderness experiences. These natural spaces serve as gathering places where visitors find connection to the boreal landscape and its rhythms.

The site is open from May through September with amenities including electrical hookups at campsites, shower facilities, and a supplies shop for daily needs. Visitors planning their trip should know the warmest season offers the most comfortable conditions for outdoor recreation.

Among the glacial features in the park are eskers and kettle lakes, one of which has become a quaking bog. The boreal forest around it holds wild rice and six species of orchids, a detail most visitors pass without noticing.
