Located on Red Rock Road across Round Lake from Bonnechere Park, the 148
hectare Foy Property is one of the last undeveloped sections of natural
shoreline on the lake. Eight forest communities are protected within the
Park including remnants of the hemlock-white pine and hemlock-white cedar
forests which once covered large portions of Renfrew County.

In addition to an expansive sand beach, significant
earth science features within Foy Park include a water-cut terrace and
exposed varved clays — both relic lake features. Although currently
limited to minimal public use (hiking, bird watching and some boating
traffic), Foy Park presents numerous development opportunities reflecting
the ever-increasing tourism and recreation features of the Ottawa Valley.
