A History of Larder Lake, Ontario

In summer, the Lions Club Fish Derby is a great crowd gatherer. The derby lasts two days, starting with a parade through town, a Fisherman's Dance and Beer Tent on the Saturday night,(with great music to dance the night away)and a family day on the Sunday. There is something for all ages! And don't worry about a babysitter for those young ones when you want to go out to the dance, just ask at any business, and someone can recommend a good sitter!

In the winter, Larder Lake is great for sledding! Our trails are well groomed and ready for your ride! Stop in at one of our restaurants for a bowl of hot chili to take the cold edge off you, and sit a spell with the locals and hear tales of days gone by.

The Larder Lake Lake Trout Ice Derby is another event that attracts anglers from miles away. And there is plenty of hot food and coffee available to warm your insides after spending time out on the ice!

The residents of Larder Lake are warm and friendly, and think nothing of stopping to talk to people who are visiting. City folk are in for a pleasant surprise as they are greeted by "hello's" from people they don't even know, while walking up the streets. So, no matter what season you choose to visit, there is always a pleasant welcome waiting for you in Larder Lake, the little town with the heart of gold.
