Quick answers
Which municipalities are on Lake Couchiching?
Three. The City of Orillia holds the south end, the Township of Severn the west shore (including Westshore), and the Township of Ramara the east shore from Atherley north. Both townships list Washago, at the north end, as a settlement area.
How big and deep is Lake Couchiching?
Severn's Westshore water report gives a surface area of 44.75 km², a maximum depth of 12 m and a mean depth of 6 m. The lake is up to about 16 km long and 5 km wide.
Which side of the lake gets the sunset?
The east shore, in Ramara. Lots there face west across the lake. West-shore lots in Severn face east and get morning sun.
Is Lake Couchiching waterfront on municipal water and sewer?
Some of it. Most of Orillia is on city services, and Severn's Westshore area has township water drawn from the lake and a wastewater plant. Most other shoreline in Severn and Ramara is on private wells or lake-drawn water and septic. Confirm for each address.
Can I drink water drawn from Lake Couchiching?
Only after proper treatment. The Province says surface-water-influenced supplies need effective filtration and treatment; a typical system uses fine filtration plus UV. Test regularly through the free Public Health Ontario bacteriological program.
Does Severn still run septic inspections on Lake Couchiching?
Not under its discretionary program, which council suspended for five years on June 17, 2026. Mandatory inspections continue in wellhead and intake protection zones. Get a private inspection when you buy.
Buying on the water?
Get the lake-specific details before you offer.
Frontage, exposure, depth, permits, septic and access all change the price. Jordan will walk you through them on any property you're considering.
