Places to Visit
Kawartha Settlers' Village
85 Dunn St40 minutes from the cottage.
Horseless Carriage Museum
1427 Kawartha Lakes County Rd 840 minutes from the cottage
Operated by the Kawartha Lakes Historical Society, the Olde Gaol Museum is located within the former Victoria County Jail, an imposing stone building located in the heart of Lindsay. While the historical displays are interesting records of early life in the region, the most evocative exhibits are behind the bars of the former prison cells.
Here, you’ll learn about children as young as 10 years old who served jail time with hard labour for petty theft, as well as Fred McGaughey, the last man to hang in Lindsay. He was hanged on December 5, 1924 for the May 25, 1924 murder of young Beatrice Fee, a remarkably quick trial, sentencing and execution.

Food scene
The Little Pie Shack
6 Francis St EOnce voted by Harrowsmith magazine as one of Canada’s top 10 prettiest towns, the village of Keene is lined with quaint shops, art galleries and a profusion of flower baskets. When it comes to authentic country eats, Muddy’s Pit BBQ (3247 County Rd 2) is a Keene institution.
The specialty here is slow-cooked Carolina-style pork back ribs, beef brisket and pulled pork. The meats are slow-roasted a minimum of eight hours over hardwood maple, which means they’re fall-off- the-bone tender.
Baked beans, side salads and desserts are made fresh daily. Grab a seat at the picnic table or get an order to go and enjoy the best barbecue north of the Carolinas. Plan ahead and you can even enjoy some live music.
Insiders Tip: Closed Mondays and Tuesdays. Watch Muddy’s Facebook Page for news about what’s happening this summer.
