The origins of the park began in the 1950s when John From, a local land owner and professional landscaper, built a summer park for local residents. He dug two artificial lakes, built a golf course, and added a campground. In 1972, John From sold the park to the Regional Park Authority. Carlton Trail Regional Park is located along the Carlton Trail, which was a 19th century trail that linked Fort Garry with Fort Edmonton.

The park is a family recreation and activity centre that features a 9-hole golf course, 9-hole disk golf course, two campgrounds, a group campsite, two man-made lakes, ball diamonds, food services, and hiking trails. The campgrounds have a total of 129 campsites with fire pits, potable water, picnic tables, washrooms, and showers. Swimming Lake–the smaller of the lakes–has a large beach, picnic area, and playground. The other lake, From Lake, is a 12-acre lake that is stocked for anglers. Only electric boats and canoes are allowed on the lake.[9][10]

The golf course is a grass greens, 9-hole course. There's a licensed club house, pro-shop, and restaurant. The white tees are 3,055 yards with a par of 36 and red tees are 2,935 yards with a par of 37.
