Camp Morton Provincial Park - Camp Morton

The yurts here are wonderful. Clean and complete with all the basics so you feel like you're camping, but really it's glamping :) The yurts are right on the lake, so you can fall asleep to the sound of the waves lapping up on the beach. The beach is ok - pretty rocky along the shore, but awesomely (relatively) shallow sand bars ~20 metres out.

Great place to come and enjoy the week or weekend cabins and park area are great ! Beach not so much rocky and Very sharp feet cutting ZEBRA MUSSELS!

Decent cross country ski trails maintained by volunteers of Gimli Cross Country Ski Club.

Might be great for skiers during the winter, but not for anyone else. The vast majority of trails in the park are taken over by the Gimli Cross-Country Ski Club during the winter. Only "trails" accessible for hiking/snowshoeing are the creek bed and a portion of the trail marked for snowshoeing (marked in blue on attached map), all in the West portion of the park. It would be nice to see more shared use of the park, or at the very least the trails that are indicated on provincial maps be left to hikers/bikers/snowshoers. All snowshoe/walking trails are in and out trails, no loops. Not worth the drive from anywhere during the winter unless you plan to ski.

I stayed at the campground for one night. Though there isn't much privacy between the sites, it's a unique and interesting place to spend a night. Can't think of another place quite like this in MB, and the grounds are expansive and well-kept. Worth a stop!

Wow had an amazing time in cabin 09-A at camp morton , bring your own everything but furniture though ex.. tv towels food sheets bed linen etc... But it's great wow ????

PLUSES: It's easy to get to & having a cabin with plumbing for a reasonable cost is nice. Gimli is close in case you forgot anything. Chopped wood for purchase on your way in is helpful (it used to be free). Hiking trails are 2-3 km so it's tolerable for kids. MINUSES: The beach is loaded with stones making it tough to walk on or spread out a blanket & do typical beach activities. No shower in the cabin bathroom, a missed opportunity.

Stayed in the campground. It's 2km South of the original Camp Morton (there you'll find the park office, and the cabins, as well as the historic buildings). The campground is basically a field-loop, with 20 or so spots. Some of the spaces are very close together... Too close together, and there is no privacy. Lot #13 seems to be the biggest, and is close to the beach. There are some big trees, which are nice. At the entrance there is a parking lot for 4-5 cars, and 2 outhouses - but no running water, (so no showers), with garbage and recycling. On the east side, there is a cliff and Lake Winnipeg. The beach is rocky. There were two picnic tables on the beach, the northern most one had a greater amount of sandy beach (and sand bars in the water). Bring water shoes! The lake is relatively shallow, so you can go in pretty deep. On the south and west side of the Camp loop, there is a treed ravine (mostly dried up creek). The kids had lots of fun catching leeches, frogs, and bugs. There's a sign saying "dangerous bridge" or something to that effect. The bridge is long gone... Just walk around the sign and head down the trail to the beach. Keep in mind there's no lifeguard here. While the North is treed with some grass trails. The trails were really fun to bike/walk. Very low difficulty level. In the winter they serve as cross country ski trails. It's important to note the wind. I read something about an "abundance of fresh air" at the Camp Morton Park - something they're proud of. In the evenings the wind comes off the lake and doesn't let up... So you hear it all night long. Overall it's fine, but I don't expect to come back any time soon, without a hard walled camper...
