This park is located in the south end of the town of Ninette on the east shore of Pelican Lake. In 2004 it was renamed in honour of Terry Fox, who vacationed here as a child.

While the sign located on the back of the building states that the operator of the park is the Rural Municipality of Riverside, Riverside amalgamated with the adjacent R.M. of Strathcona in 2015, so the park is now owned and operated by the R.M. of Prairie Lakes.
