Springbank Island has a jetty at its southern end and barbecue and toilet facilities, shelter, and a few lights at its northern end. It's an excellent place to relax and throw a frisbee or kick a football around - if you can get to it!
The perimeter of the Island is lined with trees, however, other than the treed picnic area and shelter (at the western end of the Island) the Island is quite bare. There is no power source outlet available for the public on the Island. There is a two-burner electric barbecue situated on the western side of the Island. There is a public toilet on the Island, which is always open. There is access to fresh water on the Island, at both the barbecue and at the toilet block. Camping on the Island, day or night, is not permitted.
