The Green Store is located on Trout Lake. The store hosts a counter for fudge, truffles and ice cream at a very reasonable price! It also has a large collection of art, dining ware, clothing and Canadiana gifts. If you can't make it Matthews Maple Syrup or Board's Bees, you can pick up maple syrup and honey here! Beautiful views of the lake from the patio or right on the waterfront. Highly recommended!

Nature
Take a nice hike to view the falls. A beautiful local site and great for photography. Not accessible most of winter and not great for very small children or elderly to walk on their own. Snowshoing and cross country skiing is possible accessed from Nipissing/Canadore from top of hill. Ask for directions as it can be difficult to find. Very busy on holiday weekends in the afternoons.
