About Lake Bonavista

Lake Bonavista membership depends on the LBHA encumbrance and eligible household status. The neighbourhood name alone is insufficient. Compare the published exclusion list with the specific title before assuming a condominium, suite or nearby property receives lake privileges.

    What to verify

    Buyer checklist

    Lake Bonavista Homeowners Association Ltd.

    1. 01Confirm the LBHA encumbrance on the property title.
    2. 02Check the exclusion list, especially for condominiums and secondary suites.
    3. 03Obtain the current balance and new-owner registration requirements.
    4. 04If renting, confirm who receives the annual consent and eligible senior memberships.
    5. 05Review the current rulebook rather than relying only on the 2025 reference.
    6. 06Separate community-association or condominium charges from the lake fee.

    Lake Bonaventure Residents Association Ltd.

    1. 01Obtain the LBRA encumbrance, complete articles, filing of the 2025 membership-cap resolution and exact legal parcel eligibility.
    2. 02Request the current invoice, GST treatment, due date, paid balance and any special assessments; the 2024 plan's $1,750 assumption is not a current invoice.
    3. 03Check separate Lake Bonavista membership and outstanding fees; do not combine the two accounts.
    4. 04Confirm the assigned pathway, shared dock or private dock rights and any outstanding approvals.
    5. 05Obtain written tenant, suite, Family Member and non-resident-owner eligibility.
    6. 06Read the June 2025 rules and later notices; clarify the older fishing-limit conflict.
    7. 07Request the updated capital/reserve plan and confirm outcomes of pump, island and dock work proposed in 2024.
