Red Horse Lake



Red Horse Lake is a part of the 18-mile-long Gananoque River System, a quiet series of inland lakes where you don't need fishing guides or rough-water boats. You can fish for Northern pike, lake trout, largemouth and smallmouth bass, and a wide variety of panfish. We have boats and outboard motors for rent, or you can bring your own boat and launch it on our ramp. We have our own private sand beach for swimming. You can also bring your own equipment and go waterskiing.

Please read this important information about bringing your own boat.
