Long Lake is interesting because it sits like a puddle on the side of rocky hills, yet it is large, especially if you peek around the corner from the highway – driving by, it is easy to underestimate Long Lake, despite its name.
There are facilities here for rowers, swimmers, sunbathers and fishermen, but the lake is most celebrated for its high-end lifestyle opportunities. There is valuable real estate at Long Lake, with waterfront estates and classy bed and breakfasts.
To get to Long Lake, simply drive along the old Island Highway between North Town Centre mall and Country Club Centre.
