Once upon a time, Roches Point was on its way to becoming the capital of Ontario. It was far larger than neighboring Keswick and was growing at a steady rate. However, something happened along the way. Keswick became the preferred destination and its growth soon eclipsed Roches Point, stalling its progress. Today, Roches Point is a small community best known for its gorgeous chapel, Christ Church, which is widely held to be the most beautiful English-style fieldstone church in Ontario.
Christ Church has served the surrounding community since January 1, 1863. Thanks to its excellent construction and maintenance, its present condition is a testament to the devoted congregations over the years.
Roches Point is also home to Camp Katonim, a summer day camp that offers exciting activities for children ages 3 to 16. It is located by the shores of Lake Simcoe in a beautiful country setting, 50 minutes from Toronto. As well as an enriching camp experience, children are able to engage in full waterfront activities, land sports, drama, and arts & crafts. In addition, the camp has facilities for overnight and canoe trips.
