O'Keeffe property (3861 County Rd 1E, RR2, Yarker)

Napanee River (between Yarker and Camden East)

Ontario, Canada

Clear, slow moving water throughout the year and approximately 6-7 feet in depth throughout the Summer. The river is approximately 80 feet across at this location. Perfect recreation area for swimming, canoeing, and kayaking.

Small (but portage-able) rapids 1/2 km upstream and 1 km downstream.

Major falls at Yarker and Newburgh, otherwise the river is navigable from the beginning of the Napanee Watershed at the Depot Lakes in the north to the end of the watershed flowing into the Bay of Quinte at the town of Napanee.
