Arnprior, aka “the Prior”, is the gateway to tourism in the Upper Ottawa Valley, a town in Renfrew County, in the eastern portion of Southern Ontario, Canada. It is located at the mouth of the Madawaska River, as it enters the Ottawa River in the Ottawa Valley. The town is a namesake of Arnprior, Scotland, and is known for lumber, hydropower generation, aerospace, farming and its proximity to Ottawa and the national capital region.

Arnprior offers year-round recreation & leisure activities for residents and visitors alike.

Named after the town of Renfrew in Scotland. Much of Renfrew’s current prosperity comes from being the commercial centre for over 30,000 residents of the surrounding small towns and rural region, with over 450 small service or commercial businesses.

Renfrew is an easy rest or activity stop for outdoor enthusiasts on their way to nearby whitewater rafting, boating, camping, hunting, golfing, fishing, snowmobiling, down-hill skiing, and cross-country skiing.

White Lake The historic heart of the White Lake area boasts a restaurant, a general store, and LCBO, and a church.

Where the name originated may be a bit of a mystery, but “‘Waba Sagaigun” is native Algonkin meaning simply “White Lake”. In the earliest survey’s of the region, White Lake was shown as “Wabolak” and “Wa-ba-lak”. St. Andrew’s United Church sits majestically at the centre of White Lake Village and is very active with regular events and weekly Sunday Service at 8 a.m. Plan to drop by and experience the history in this over 129-year-old fully operational church anytime, including very special services at Christmas and Easter. Feeling romantic?? St. Andrew’s is also a great place to get married.
