Hatchery, built in 1992, was constructed
solely by volunteer labour, and commenced operations
in 1993. The Hatchery is constructed on land leased to
the Fishing Club by the Municipality of Kincardine, and
the Municipality continues to be very supportive of the
Hatchery and the Lake Huron Fishing Club. Stop in and
see how rainbow and brown trout are hatched, raised
and released into our Lake by 50 volunteers from the
Kincardine community! Over 2.2 million fish have been
released into local waters from the Kincardine Trout
Hatchery. Come and see why the Ministry of Natural
Resources personnel have commented that this is one
of the nicest, if not best, community run hatcheries in
the Province. Winner of the 2015 OPG Environmental
Award from the Kincardine Chamber of Commerce.

The octagonal wooden tower is unique as one of the
few lights located in the heart of the community and
just steps to the downtown core. The Kincardine
Yacht Club maintains the lighthouse as a maritime
museum during the summer months. Tours include the
keeper’s quarters and the tower up to the light with an
interesting display of artifacts and memorabilia related
to Kincardine’s Maritime past displayed throughout.
Paddy Walker was a renowned innkeeper and
entrepreneur, and one of the original Kincardinites.
Paddy’s colourful exploits are the stuff of local legend.
His boarding house and tavern was one of the first
structures erected in Town and it is the oldest surviving
building in Kincardine. Nearly razed by fire in 1995,
a dedicated group of citizens has since restored the
Walker House reopening it in 2008 as a heritage centre
and local museum.
Experience over 100 years of telecommunications
as Bruce Telecom guides you through a historical
timeline tour. Bruce Telecom, owned by the
Corporation of the Municipality of Kincardine,
was once a subscriber-owned system dating
back over a century ago. Since 1991 the system
has been operated as a public utility under the
management of a Council appointed Municipal
Services Board. Offering a complete suite of
telecommunications services including voice,
internet and television programming to both
residential and business customers, Bruce Telecom
continues to be a significant local employer that
provides ongoing support to many community
focused organizations in the Municipalities in
which they operate.
Located in the heart of downtown, just steps from the
lighthouse, beach, harbour and marina, this boutique
hotel is a showpiece. An eleven room addition was
completed in 2012 through the conversion of the
adjacent late 1800s building, part of which is now the
lobby for the hotel. Further renovation in 2014/2015
sees the remainder of the property brought up to
the same caliber and on display to the public for the
event.
