The lakeside cemetery is the final resting place of Canadian writers Stephen Leacock and Mazo de la Roche. All are welcome to Sunday worship.
Enter the St. George's Church property through the lych (1878) gate. A typical English country church provides this roofed gateway to a churchyard. This church, built in Gothic style in 1876-7, replaced the original wooden church built in 1839. The stone church architects were Gavillais and Thompson of Barrie, Ontario. Captain Tom Sibbald supervised the building of the church and local craftsmen did the actual building.
