Protect Island Lake · Fire Safety

One spark can change
this place forever.

A campfire or discarded cigarette can put guests, wildlife, ancient forest and our timber lodges at risk. These rules apply to everyone on Island Lake property.

No campfires.

Do not light fires at the lake, beside trails, in the forest or anywhere else on Island Lake property. An existing fire ring is not permission.

No smoking.

Smoking is prohibited on Island Lake property. Never discard a cigarette, match or other burning material on the ground or from a vehicle.

Island Lake’s property rules still apply when provincial restrictions are lifted. Please follow all posted signs and staff directions.

See smoke, flames or unsafe burning?

Move to safety.
Report it immediately.

Give your location and describe what you see. Alert lodge staff as soon as you can, and follow emergency instructions. Do not put yourself at risk to take photographs or investigate.

Immediate danger to life

911Police, fire or ambulance

Notify lodge staff too. A report to the lodge does not replace an emergency call.
