Situated in quiet Starr Bay off Lake Scugog, it’s the perfect place for boating and fishing. We offer two kayaks and a paddle boat. Down the street there is a public boat launch.
We pride ourselves on being honest and upfront with our guests and thus want to be clear regarding the lake conditions on Starr Bay. Even though the water is swimmable; The water in Starr Bay is clear but very shallow and weedy in a portion of the shallowest areas, making it harder to swim. We have included a few photos so that guests can see what we are referring to in the lake.
For guests that decide not to swim in the shallow area, the kayaks & paddleboat is an excellent transportation tool to venture out to the deeper regions of Starr Bay or further into Lake Scugog to swim.
