Rich Island was a turn of the century fishing camp with a few run-down cabins that have been removed leaving one building. The island has power and a temporary electrical panel ready for construction. If you choose to build, Rich Island has building approvals for a cottage closer to the river, which current bylaws would not allow. Rich Island has excellent boat access and mainland boat dockage is available within a short boat ride.
