Stony Lake - Real Estate - Ken Pipher Sales Representative

Ston(e)y Lake is considered by many to be the jewel of the Kawartha’s with a history rich in cottaging. Its shores include rugged Canadian-Shield terrain with majestic pine trees emerging from granite shorelines. It’s a scenic wonder with hundreds of islands, bays and inlets, bordered on the North by Peterborough Petroglyph Provincial Park.

Stoney Lake offers cottagers the chance for a truly authentic Canadian Cottage experience while being within easy commuting distance of the GTA. It’s home to many magnificent houses and cottages and includes the famed private golf course, Wildfire. Cottaging on Stony Lake dates back to before the turn of the century, and several historic century cottages remain today.

The lake also boasts resorts and restaurants, as well as marinas and launches. Other notable destinations on Stoney Lake include the Upper Stoney Pavilion, which hosts events including art and craft shows as well as St Peters On The Rock Church and the Stoney Lake Sailing Club.

Real estate values are high as Stoney Lake is located with access to the Trent Severn Waterway, making it a boater’s dream – you can travel from Lake Ontario to Georgian Bay by boat!
