Highlight of the Hamlet of Round Lake Centre
Round Lake Centre is a small community located on the eastern shore of Round Lake, in the Township of Killaloe, Hagarty and Richards. Originally developed as a lakeside service point, it supported seasonal tourism, logging camps, and cottagers.
Access roads and lot divisions evolved incrementally, with no central plan of subdivision guiding development. The area today remains largely recreational, with cottages, public beaches, and conservation land surrounding the lake.
Surveying Round Lake Centre requires detailed shoreline analysis, particularly given the prevalence of meandering lot lines, cottage leases, and variable occupation. Legal descriptions often combine natural boundary elements with artificial parceling, and historical water level changes can alter the location of features relative to plan data.
Adam Kasprzak Surveying Ltd. maintains the ONLY archived catalog of survey records of Renfrew County. We are the caretakers of over 150 years worth of numerous Land Surveyors records (plans, fieldnotes and other records) . This includes records of Round Lake Centre, and the many other interesting parts of this corner of Ontario.
Historic survey records are essential for an Ontario Land Surveyor to form a boundary opinion. Without proper research, a Surveyor cannot accept one piece of evidence and reject another. A full understanding of the sources of evidence, the reasoning of its origin, and sources for error; all of the why - who - when - where - how must be evaluated. With access to all of the available records of past surveys in the County, we have the privilege of gaining these valuable insights.
Do you have any questions about our records, and how we carry out surveys that are built on the legacy of these historic records?
