Newboro

A cute little village situated on an isthmus between Newboro and Upper Rideau Lakes, Newboro played an important role in the construction of the Rideau Canal, as witnessed by the memorial plaque to Army engineers who lost their lives during its construction. As commercial use of the canal declined Newboro became known for its great fishing. As a result several fishing lodges arose. Also one of the four Rideau Canal blockhouses is located at the Newboro lock station.

Today Newboro offers food and accommodation to tourists and cottagers along the lake. A wonderful resource for all things "Rideau" http://www.Rideau-info.com is the web site.
