The last night for camping at Moonshine Lake Provincial Park Campground is September 3. The campground closes for the season on September 4 at 2:00PM for the ongoing construction of the new Shower Building. Construction will be ongoing into 2026. 

The beach is also closed for construction. Day Use Areas are open. 

Please be advised that Cyanobacterial (Blue Green Algae) has been identified in the waters of Moonshine Lake.

Visitors are advised to take the following precautions:

• Avoid all contact with cyanobacterial blooms. If contact occurs, wash with tap water as soon as possible.
• Do not swim or wade or allow your pets to swim or wade in any areas where cyanobacteria is visible.
• Do not feed whole fish or fish trimmings from this lake to your pets.
• Consider limiting human consumption of whole fish and fish trimmings from this lake, as it is known that fish may store toxins in their liver. (People can safely consume fish fillets from this lake).

As always, visitors and residents are reminded to never drink or cook with untreated water directly from any recreational body of water at any time. Boiling this water will not remove the toxins produced by cyanobacteria. An alternate source of drinking water should also be provided for pets and livestock while this advisory is active.

Weather and wind conditions can cause algae blooms to move from one location in the lake to another. As such, this advisory will remain in effect for Moonshine Lake until further notice.

Please note, waters of Moonshine Lake in which the cyanobacterial bloom is NOT visible can still be used for recreational purposes, even while this Health Advisory is in place.
