Lake Mindemoya & Treasure Island
Lake Mindemoya
A large lake in the centre of the island. Its island, Treasure Island, is one of the world's largest lake-on-island-in-lake formations and is linked to Ojibwe legend.
Lake Mindemoya lies in the centre of the island. The island within it, Mindemoya Island (commonly called Treasure Island), resembles a reclining old woman. According to Ojibwe legend, she is the grandmother of the mythological figure Nanabush. The lakeshore has public beaches, fishing spots and boat rentals, and it is good for swimming in summer. The village of Mindemoya, on the east side of the lake, is the central island's supply stop, with restaurants and accommodation.
