Part of the 4 lake chain, Mary Lake belongs to the community of Port Sydney. A stunning lake accessed via lift lock lock system that is an absolute treasure to discover. Less boat traffic is its niche and Port Sydney offers one of the most unique village experiences in Ontario. Public beaches, ice cream shops and a general store and the dam and rock slide are sure to please anyone looking for a vibrant yet quiet community to call home. South Mary Lake rd will lead you to Huntsville the back way and is also equidistant to the community of Bracebridge and Lake Muskoka to the south via the Muskoka River. Many trains would lead from Gravenhurst to meet steam ships in Port Sydney which would lead through the lift locks est in 1877 and carry passengers on through to Huntsville and Lake of Bays.
