Enjoy the summer activities at our campground and at Canadohta Lake. We welcome campers each year with our annual Memorial weekend picnic and we have a Labor Day picnic as well. Check out this page for the events around the lake both in our campground and sponsored by the local business association, CLABA.

We hope you will become part of our camping family and enjoy the events as they happen! Each summer our small community transforms into a family fun place. Generations of families have spent their vacations at the Family Lake and many of our patrons have grown up here enjoying their summer vacations. We have noticed that people bring their families back to enjoy the lake. Proof that once you visit the lake...you'll want to return! #canadohtaiscalling

PAINTING ON THE LAKE

This is an event we have hosted 3 years in a row and have so much fun! Thanks to the Hibgy's staff, our exchange students and campers that participated!

This is an event that a group of friends/campers/etc. get together with legal drinks and do a painting with a group lead by an instructor. All the materials are included, just bring your own beverages (wine, cocktails, etc.) and a good attitude because it is going to be a great time with great people. No experience is needed! These "paint and sip" events have become very popular and we are so excited to offer it as an event for our campground!

CANCELLED DUE TO COVID
