Life at the Lake

Loon Call Lake is a community that has had fun together for more than 65 years and 4 or more generations long.

Loon Call Lake has three main events each year, the AGM in June, The Paddle Palooza in July and the Regatta and Corn Roast (with Raffle) in August. Sprinkled among these recurring events, we have held the Planting Palooza, Music on the Dock and a Golf Tournament. If you have a suggestion, just let us know and we’ll help make it happen.

We have also reserved a special place for Loon Callers who have left us. You can read about these special people in Loon Callers remembered.

Annual Regatta and Corn Roast

Each summer, Loon Call Lake holds a Regatta and Corn Roast on the Saturday of the long weekend in August.

The Regatta was cancelled for 2020 and 2021 due to Covid-19, however we did have a Pandemic Paddle and Food Drive.

Paddle Palooza/Pandemic Paddle and Food Drive

Meeting our lake neighbours and collecting food for the local food bank. It started during the Pandemic, but has carried on.

Golf Tournament – 2021

First Ever Golf Tournament…but we hope not the last.

Music on the Dock – 2021

Boat Up Piano Bar Encore

Thank you Drew Phillips from the Loon Call Lake a Cottage Association for another very entertaining and enjoyable evening on Loon Call Lake!

Pandemic Paddle, Food Drive and Boat Up Piano Bar – 2020

We thought Covid-19 had turned the long weekend August 2020 into just an ordinary cottage weekend. But thanks to some creative thinking, August 1st ended up being a spectacular day.

Planting Palooza – June 19, 2021

It was a beautiful sunny day. Nice to get out and meet (socially distanced) with cottage neighbours. Plants were picked up and planted. A fun time was had by all.

Loon Callers Remembered

Time moves on, and sadly we have lost many of our “originals”. We are preserving their impact and joy of the lake on our Loon Callers Remembered page.

Little Free Library

 A lending library or Free Little Library is available to anyone visiting the area, not just Loon Call Lake cottagers. It can be found on Fire Route 58F at the intersection of 58F and 58G. It is run on the Take a Book/Leave a Book policy, so take any book and leave any book, or return the book when you have finished reading it.

The Little Free Library’s objective is to promote literacy and is part of the Little Free Library program and is sponsored by The Rotary Club of Peterborough.
