Still to confirm

Landlord access after assignment
The documents assign the owner's privileges to tenants but do not expressly resolve simultaneous access or resident-landlord suite scenarios. Obtain written confirmation for that arrangement.

The community map shows neighbourhood outlines, not a verified parcel-by-parcel membership map. A nearby address, condominium fee or lake view does not by itself establish access.

Published fee classes for 2026
Fee class	Amount	GST	Notes
Annual lake maintenance	$314.00	GST additional	$329.70 including GST, as published.

Due date: January 1, 2026
Late interest: New-member PDF states 1.5% monthly after January 31; annual-fee page describes 18% annually, compounded monthly with daily additions. Ask MLRA for the account calculation and applicable start date.
Processing fees: Conflicting official references: annual-fee page says $5 per credit-card invoice; new-member PDF says 1.6% in-office and 2% online. Confirm before payment. Cash is not accepted; returned cheques carry a $25 charge on the fee page.
Transfer / setup charges: Not stated in the reviewed source

Payment is mandatory even without lake use. Non-delivery of an invoice does not remove the payment obligation. No future dollar amount is inferred from the board's inflation outlook.

Important rules

Confirm the category for a member aged exactly twelve
Details not yet published
Published guest categories describe juniors as over twelve and children as below twelve. The wording does not explicitly assign age twelve to either category. Obtain the office's registration and guest allowance decision before planning a visit.
Source: Member categories and guest limits
Ten guests per household per day
Association-published
Designated and senior members may host up to ten, within the household daily limit. Junior members may host three; children cannot host guests. Hosts stay with guests. Larger groups require at least 72 hours' notice.
Source: Member categories and guest limits
Older form description conflicts with current limit
Association-published
The document index's 2013 group-booking description refers to more than fifteen guests. The current guest rule and homepage use ten. Follow the current rule and confirm approval before inviting a larger group.
Sources: Association document indexMember categories and guest limits2026 annual maintenance fee notice
Private boats allowed with conditions
Association-published
Gas motors are prohibited. Battery-powered boats require sealed marine batteries. Boats may be inspected and must be brought to the launch at least 30 minutes before closing; owners secure their equipment.
Source: Private boat rules
Check the temporary fishing restriction
Association-published
The fishing page retains a general three-trout line alongside a temporary one-rainbow-trout daily restriction. The FAQ also states one rainbow trout over 12 inches daily, with twelve monthly per household. Confirm the current restriction before keeping fish.
Sources: Fishing rules and temporary restrictions; Membership, moving and cards FAQ
Private paid lessons require association coordination
Association-published
Members cannot use the park for personally profitable events or lessons. Instruction is coordinated through the office; lakefront access does not override closing hours.
Source: Facility access rules
Moving within Midnapore requires new registration
Association-published
The FAQ says fee payment does not transfer between properties. Old cards become invalid when moving to another home; register against the new property. Replacement cards are listed at $5.

Common misconception

Limits of the association’s role

Property-specific architectural controls and private maintenance obligations still require a title and document review.
