Each summer, Lake Field Music camp takes residence at Lakefield College School in the beautiful Kawartha Lakes region of Ontario. The campus is located on the shore of Lake Katchewanooka (view map), approximately a 20-minute drive north of Peterborough and a 100-minute drive northeast of Toronto.

The 155-acre campus boasts excellent music facilities including the Bryan Jones Theatre and the A.W. Mackenzie Chapel (built 1998) with the organ from the College’s original chapel (1924). Both of these spaces and the dedicated music room have grand pianos while keyboards are available in most of the classrooms. The theatre, chapel and most classrooms are air-conditioned.

You’re welcome to practice or play with others in one of the unused classrooms, practice studios, under a tree or by the lake. Music in the dormitories is also permitted outside of quiet times.

Breakfast, lunch and dinner are served buffet style in the bright, sunlit dining hall.

Dormitories are spread across campus up to 250 metres from the dining hall which is connected to the classrooms, theatre and chapel. Dormitories are air-conditioned and the rooms have single-size beds, desks, dressers and a closet. There are three room configurations in the dormitories: Standard, Cooper and Uplands.

Standard dormitories have single and double occupancy rooms sharing a multi-fixture bathroom, separate for male and female.

Cooper dormitory has pairs of single occupancy rooms sharing a bathroom in between.

Uplands dormitory has single and double occupancy rooms each with a private bathroom.

Most dormitories have rooms on the ground and second floors. Cooper and Uplands dormitories are wheelchair accessible, but not the Standard dormitories. Otherwise, the campus is wheelchair accessible although the distances can be challenging, so a motorized wheelchair could be helpful. Some doors are equipped with automatic door openers. The classroom building is serviced by an elevator between the two levels, but it is not centrally located. Accessible washrooms are available.
