Strong blends small-town ease with lake-country adventure, set along the shores of Lake Bernard and within easy reach of Sundridge, South River, and Burk's Falls. Residents prize the short drives to larger hubs like Huntsville and North Bay, while day-to-day needs are met right in the Almaguin Highlands. Local services are coordinated through the Township of Strong, whose civic updates and recreation details are shared on the Township of Strong website.
Summer revolves around Lake Bernard’s clear water—swimming at sandy beaches, paddling quiet coves, and casting for bass and trout. Trails and picnic spots are nearby, and the vistas from High Rock Lookout in adjacent Sundridge are a favorite. For bigger backcountry escapes, campgrounds and beaches at Mikisew Provincial Park are a short drive away, and Algonquin Provincial Park’s western access points open up a world of hiking, paddling, and wildlife viewing. Winter brings groomed snowmobile routes, skating at the Sundridge–Strong–Joly arena, and cozy community events that keep calendars full.
Families benefit from the Near North District School Board, with elementary options such as Sundridge Centennial Public School and secondary studies at Almaguin Highlands Secondary School in South River. The Sundridge–Strong Union Public Library offers programs for all ages, and Ontario Northland coach services provide regional connections when you need them. Considering a move or a sale here?
