Loon Talk Cottage on Clear Lake is a little piece of paradise on the Trent Severn Waterway in the Kawartha Lakes Region. It is very accessible – Toronto (1.5 hour), Peterborough (20 min north) and the town of Lakefield (10 min north). It is well located with a private beach, southern exposure, and on a flat piece of property that is great for children of all ages. It is private and has a large front yard for playing volleyball, badminton, croquet, catch, bocce ball, and more. There is a fire pit near the shoreline with a large cauldron for your use – great for lobster or corn. The expansive 137.5′ of shoreline offers excellent swimming or you can dive off the 36′ dock. Two kayaks, a canoe and 2 stand up paddleboards are also available for your use. Every Wednesday and Sunday, sail boats are sailing and racing out on the lake for your viewing enjoyment.
Clear Lake is excellent for bass, pickerel, perch, muskie and carp fishing. Many large fish have been caught right off the dock.
