Community Vacation Homes

Situated on Smiths Bay on Lake Ontario about 13 km east of Picton, Waupoos is set among picturesque apple orchards, wineries, local farms and forested hills. During and after the American Revolution, Waupoos served as a point of resettlement for American United Empire Loyalists. Prior to European settlement, Waupoos (whose name is derived from the Ojibwe waabooz, rabbit) was inhabited by Tyendinaga Mohawks, who created a burial ground on Waupoos Island. The Conrad David House, a historically designated property on which Sir John A. MacDonald once held the mortgage, now houses the County Cider Company. [Source: Wikipedia]
