Tragically Hip, a Canadian rock band, wrote a song titled Bobcaygeon, which brought this small community to Canada’s imagination as a cottage country paradise.

A fishing paradise for anglers, it is also famous for kayaking, canoeing, and powerboating. Board a fishing boat and catch your trophy fish in Sturgeon Lake or in Pigeon Lake. For a taste of art and history, check interesting exhibits in Kawartha Settlers Village and Boyd Heritage Museum. If you find yourself in the community on a Saturday morning, visit Bobcaygeon Farmers’ Market and discover the area’s local products and delicacies. For a truly relaxing stay, check out the best Airbnb vacation rentals in Bobcaygeon, Canada.
