Proudly serving Townsend Lake, Show Your Listing delivers exceptional Real Estate Media solutions to elevate your listings.
Townsend Lake, a serene 97-acre, 8-feet deep lake, offers a range of recreational activities. It's located in the Municipality of West Grey, in the former township of Glenelg, an area known for its natural beauty reminiscent of the Laurentian district of Canada. The lake is ideal for fishing perch and enjoys a public boat launch for non-motorized vehicles, swimming, and sunbathing.
Close to Townsend Lake are the towns of Markdale, Durham, and downtown Owen Sound, with the nearby Saugeen Municipal Airport providing access to the provincial airport network. The lake's south end features Townsend Lake Golf Course, a 9-hole course with a scenic patio overlooking the lake. To the west, Glen Rodin County Forest 18 offers mixed hardwoods, conifer plantations, and a 1.6 km groomed snowmobile trail, also suitable for biking and hiking.
Historically, Glenelg was established in 1840, named after a Scottish location or Lord Glenelg. Thomas Townsend is the namesake for Townsend Lake. The area, historically home to mills and settlements by Irish and Scottish immigrants, evokes a simpler, bygone era, offering a peaceful retreat.
