Elliot Lake - Elliot Lake, Ontario

It's cliche to say "There's something for everyone", but after close to 6 years here, I really do feel that way.
If, like me, you're new to Canada and prefer a slower pace than found in more populous cities, but you still have to make a living and don't mind getting creative or looking a bit harder for ways to use your skills, you'll do fine here.
If you're newly retired and looking for a change of pace and a chance to get out more, perhaps travel and explore, Elliot Lake is a good home base. There's access to the North and the wider world, but you have to plan well, and you're going to appreciate coming home to a place that doesn't feature gridlock every afternoon.
If you're a parent, raise your children here where there's as much as needed to get a solid foundation in their education, while still being far enough away from the usual big city problems. Let them get outside, appreciate their surroundings and environment, gain skills in managing themselves out there, so they can take that with them wherever life takes them.

Love Elliot Lake. We have lived here almost 2 years, and weekly find something or somewhere of interest here. Fishing is great around here, and there are many hiking trails, as well as parks that are well maintained.

have been visiting the area for many years. We do an annual camping and fishing trip for about 5 days and always start looking forward to the next trip from the moment we leave.

You could spend months exploring old logging and mining roads. The fishing is always good and too many lakes and rivers to count.

The local people are always willing to lend a hand or give you tips on where to go.

Great park on the lake. Excellent lake for fishing. Beautiful floating pier.
