Membership and payment
mandatory
Check the property, not just the neighbourhood.
No individual title, account balance or household access is certified here. A maintenance boundary, nearby amenity or condo fee does not settle those questions.

Fees, classes & context.
2026
Published amount recorded| Property / fee class | Amount | Tax & applicability |
|---|---|---|
| Annual lake maintenance | $314.00 | Tax not confirmed$329.70 including GST, as published. |
Published deadline / period: January 1, 2026
Published late-payment information: New-member PDF states 1.5% monthly after January 31; annual-fee page describes 18% annually, compounded monthly with daily additions. Ask MLRA for the account calculation and applicable start date.
Payment is mandatory even without lake use. Non-delivery of an invoice does not remove the payment obligation. No future dollar amount is inferred from the board's inflation outlook.

02 / THE PROPERTY CONTEXT
Which properties and households participate?
Title-linked obligation
yes
Property coverage
Eligibility requires a title encumbrance. The neighbourhood name or an address text match does not establish membership; confirm the specific property with MLRA.
Owner of an eligible property
Supply title, an access application and government photo ID showing the address. Book a registration appointment; unpaid accounts cannot access facilities.
Tenants assigned lake access
Supply an application, address ID and a lease expressly granting access. If the lease is silent, obtain the landlord's assignment letter.
Landlord access after assignment
The documents assign the owner's privileges to tenants but do not expressly resolve simultaneous access or resident-landlord suite scenarios. Obtain written confirmation for that arrangement.
Property without the MLRA encumbrance
The FAQ limits membership to encumbered properties. Confirm the actual title before applying this exclusion to an address.
03 / THE PROPERTY CONTEXT
What the association does
Services and assets
Supports lake operations, major maintenance, capital improvements and reserves for asset replacement. · Provides member lake and park recreation, with seasonal activities and equipment subject to operating conditions.
04 / THE PROPERTY CONTEXT
Amenities and access
Lake and recreation park
Activities and lake conditions vary seasonally; check the operator before visiting.
05 / THE PROPERTY CONTEXT
Rules and responsibilities
Confirm the category for a member aged exactly twelve
Published guest categories describe juniors as over twelve and children as below twelve. The wording does not explicitly assign age twelve to either category. Obtain the office's registration and guest allowance decision before planning a visit.
Ten guests per household per day
Designated and senior members may host up to ten, within the household daily limit. Junior members may host three; children cannot host guests. Hosts stay with guests. Larger groups require at least 72 hours' notice.
Older form description conflicts with current limit
The document index's 2013 group-booking description refers to more than fifteen guests. The current guest rule and homepage use ten. Follow the current rule and confirm approval before inviting a larger group.
Private boats allowed with conditions
Gas motors are prohibited. Battery-powered boats require sealed marine batteries. Boats may be inspected and must be brought to the launch at least 30 minutes before closing; owners secure their equipment.
SourcesPrivate boat rules
Check the temporary fishing restriction
The fishing page retains a general three-trout line alongside a temporary one-rainbow-trout daily restriction. The FAQ also states one rainbow trout over 12 inches daily, with twelve monthly per household. Confirm the current restriction before keeping fish.
Private paid lessons require association coordination
Members cannot use the park for personally profitable events or lessons. Instruction is coordinated through the office; lakefront access does not override closing hours.
SourcesFacility access rules
Moving within Midnapore requires new registration
The FAQ says fee payment does not transfer between properties. Old cards become invalid when moving to another home; register against the new property. Replacement cards are listed at $5.
06 / THE PROPERTY CONTEXT
What is separate or excluded
Not part of this service
Property-specific architectural controls and private maintenance obligations still require a title and document review.
