A community with a unique feature
Harvey Lakeland Estates is a 350-acre, low density residential community established in the early 1970s. It is located among the beautiful Kawartha Lakes near the hamlet of Buckhorn within the Municipality of Trent Lakes, in Peterborough County, Ontario. [Map]
The community consists of 117 private lots of about one acre each and 250 acres of common land. This Commonland consists mainly of wooded areas, some significant wetlands, and 5 kilometers of shoreline along three lakes - Sandy, Little Bald and Big Bald. As a resident of Harvey Lakeland Estates, if you wish to access the Commonland you must be a Member of the Harvey Lakeland Commonland Owners Association (HLCOA).
HLCOA is a not-for-profit corporation that owns the Commonland and maintains the lands in their natural and undeveloped state as common areas for the benefit of its Members. The affairs of the Corporation are managed by a volunteer Board of Directors that is elected from within the membership by the Members.
It is a condition of HLCOA membership that lot owners comply with the By-Law established by the membership and pay all dues and fees levied against their lot by the Corporation. Members are not permitted to operate a short-term rental accommodation within the community.
