Stephenfield Provincial Park

In 1963 Prairie Farm Rehabilitation Administration (PFRA) constructed a dam on the Boyne River approximately 20 km. west of Carman. The resulting reservoir became the Stephenfield Lake. The lake serves as a popular recreation area offering boating, fishing, swimming and camping facilities and is an attractive stopping point for migratory birds. The lake also provides water for the nearby water treatment plant that serves the RM of Dufferin and the Town of Carman. A campground was developed on the south side of the lake and the area was designated as Stephenfield Provincial Park in 1971.
