RAINBOW LAKE

Rainbow Lake, in Waterford, has generously been donated to Camp Trillium by the Long Point Region Conservation Authority. The 143 acre facility is a child´s paradise, providing a 35 acre private lake for water sports in the heart of a wooded wilderness.

Rainbow Lake is a year round facility that has fully winterized buildings. Rainbow Lake opened in 1998 and is celebrating its 10th year. Rainbow Lake runs family and residential camps in the summer and during the year runs teen, family and winter residential weekends.
