Our Vision
That our community achieves a more complete understanding of Fairy Lake and its surroundings through participation, discovery, and stewardship for its safety, protection, and preservation.
Our mandate:
To foster a community through active membership participation
To implement various community events and incentives focused on and around the lake
To ensure water is regularly monitored and tested to mitigate any water quality issues
To encourage and promote the maintenance and creation of natural shorelines that support a healthy lake environment
To advocate for environmentally sustainable land development
To sensibly manage the association’s finances for present and future longevity
To be transparent in our decision-making and cognizant of sharing relevant information with our community
To liaise with other lake allies to garner support, leverage knowledge, and expertise
Fairy Lake stretches nearly 10 kilometres, with a perimeter of approximately 22 kilometres and a maximum depth of just under 70 meters. Together with three connecting lakes—Vernon, Peninsula, and Mary—it provides about 60 kilometres of interconnected waterways for boating.
In his book This River the Muskoka, Gary Long aptly describes Fairy Lake as having “picturesque expanses of ruffled blue waters cradled between steep, rolling hills – fantastic scenery in the autumn, and has an extra element of ruggedness from islands that thrust rocky pine-clad summits high above the water.”
