Area Guide

Where riverside charm meets small-town spirit

Historic • Scenic • Riverfront • Peaceful •

You’ll feel at home the moment you wander into Mississippi Mills, where friendly streets weave through riverside villages like Almonte, Pakenham, and Appleton. Life here happens gently. Residents stroll down heritage-lined sidewalks, duck into cozy cafés or quirky boutiques, and round a corner onto trails hugging the Mississippi River. Parks and forests frame your every turn. It’s a place where weekend craft festivals like the Almonte Fair, CeltFest, or North Lanark Highland Games add color without crowds, and mornings might find you watching anglers along the river or enjoying a local event at the library. The sense of small-town pride is strong, but the pace is always laid back.

Housing varies nicely: from steep ceilinged apartments with original tin ceilings to family-sized townhomes and single-family homes with yards and porches. The term "apartment community" fits places where residents share more than walls with shared gardens, walkable lanes, and access to nearby trails. Options include rentals in historic mills, renovated lofts, modern apartments, and townhomes.

Almonte is a former mill town with deep roots. Its post office and woolen mill are National Historic Sites. Nearby, the Mill of Kintail brings art and sport together: the old grist mill houses the R. Tait McKenzie Museum (honoring a sculptor doctor) and the Naismith Museum (celebrating the inventor of basketball), perched amid conservation land perfect for quiet escapes.
