Constable Chelsey Robinson Day Use Park

This is a fantastic day use area. South of Stony Plain about 30 minutes, it is a hidden gem. When you get to the entrance of the park you are not sure what to expect so when you drive down a steep hill you arrive at a wonderful day use area. There is ample parking. There are lots of picnic tables with fire pits with free wood. The setting is picturesque. There are public toilets that are not flush. The whole day use area is right beside the North Saskatchewan River. My wife and I along with another couple thoroughly enjoyed the visit and will return again.

Absolutely adore this place! We’ve been there twice already and planning on going a few more times before the season is over. There are 16 campfire/picnic table sites mostly along the river. Take an easy to assemble shelter in case of a quick rain. We enjoyed sitting around the fire with a beautiful view of the lake and the sun shining. A perfect little space - and will do just fine on between camping trips to keep us connected with nature and all that amazing stuff that recharges ones soul. This little hidden gem of a day camp park is located about 40 mins outside of Edmonton. The drive down is beautiful, too, and we almost always forget we are so close to our city. When one is constantly in the city, on forgets the beautiful surroundings that are only a short drive away. We were every excited to discover this little hidden gem. A former gravel quarry, turned into a day camp named after a fallen police officer. Bonus: there our toilets (outhouse-style, not flushing ones) and fire wood is provided free of charge by the county. Last time we were there, there were people digging for gold. Pretty cool to see all the tools and gadgets they were using.

Great place for a picnic or to hang out around a fire. Wish it had some hiking trails or something. But good if you wanna just relax by the river.

Lovely little park area along the river. Fire pits, wood provided (bring a water bucket though!) And outhouse. Nice area to go for the day and enjoy the sun, water and outdoors.

I was taught to leave nature in a better state than you found it. Unfortunately, it seems visitors before us weren't taught that philosophy. Please pick-up after yourself. The park fills up fast, and parking is limited by the water so get here early (there is overflow at the top of the hill). We visit a couple times each year and find that when we get here between 8 and 9, there's next to nobody at the park, but by 11 there's not a parking space or an empty picnic table to be found... Also, people like to double-park, please don't do this. I was blocked in for 45 minutes until I found the owner of that blue F-150 suntanning on the beach. It's a beautiful spot, let's keep it that way.
