We have just under an acre of land with spots for travel trailers/tents. Hydro hook up and water available. Situated on beautiful lake Temiskaming. A 15 minute boat ride to Temiskaming Shores or a 20 minute drive. Also a 15 minute boat ride to Ville Marie, Quebec. Many beaches to be enjoyed. Our property is great for swimming, but bring water shoes because it is a rock beach. Fish off the dock or have your morning coffee. Most days, the bay is calm as it is protected from the winds that can make Lake Temiskaming quite choppy. Canoeing, kayaking, peddle boating, fishing, hiking, atving are just some of the activities that can be enjoyed.
