Community Highlight

Buttertarts N More is where you will find the best local desserts, and a quaint tourist attraction to pick up treats before heading to the cottage. Also, it’s a crowd favourite during the Kawartha Lakes summer fest for the Buttertarts Tour. The Spudster in Little Britain is a community food truck that’s well-known far beyond the Kawarthas. You’ll find amazing poutine, a number of unique, over-the-top burgers, and some of the best fish and chips in the area. If fried food isn’t your thing, you’re guaranteed to find fresh vegetables or eggs at a local farmer’s roadside stand.
