Improvements are coming to Pinery Provincial Park.

Thanks to $827,000 in provincial funding, the park’s four cabins will be given an overhaul.

“On the shores of Lake Huron, there are few places in our province more picturesque than Pinery Provincial Park,” said Monte McNaughton, MPP for Lambton-Kent-Middlesex. “Thousands of friends and families come to enjoy this park every day. This investment will ensure they have better cabins for decades to come.”

Cabins come equipped with a queen bed and bunk bed, a kitchenette with a microwave, a mini fridge, a gas barbecue, and an electric fireplace. Officials say renovations will improve the visitor experience at the park and help boost tourism at one of the most popular wildlife destinations in Southwestern Ontario.

“In 2022, Ontario Parks recorded more than 12.1 million visits and overnight camping grew by nine per cent over 2021, which goes to show the increasing demand for our beautiful provincial parks,” said David Piccini, Minister of the Environment, Conservation and Parks. “Upgrading infrastructure is one of the ways we’re working to improve the visitor experience, so that they have a memorable and positive time while at our parks, returning with their friends and families for years to come.”
