Government Park is an unincorporated place and former railway point in geographic Boyd Township in the Unorganized South Part of Nipissing District in northeastern Ontario, Canada.[1][2][3][4] Government Park is located within Algonquin Provincial Park on Cedar Lake on the Petawawa River.

It lies on the now-abandoned Canadian National Railway Alderdale Subdivision, a section of track that was originally constructed as the Canadian Northern Railway main line, between Daventry to the west and the divisional point Brent to the east.
