Treed acreage minutes from Kenora, with the river built in
Riverwood is a new acreage community near Kenora, Ontario, with large treed lots, a quiet subdivision cul-de-sac, and shared ownership in a private Winnipeg River access parcel. Close enough to town to use often, and big enough to grow into over time.
For some buyers, Riverwood means room for the shop, trailers, equipment, gardens, and privacy. For others, it is a practical Kenora retreat, future-build property, or long-term base with water access built in.
Site plan is illustrative only. Lot boundaries, dimensions, and features may vary from what is depicted. Purchasers should rely on their own registered survey and legal descriptions.
Shared Amenity · Block 11
Private River Access, Without Owning Waterfront
Every Riverwood lot includes access to Block 11 — a private waterfront parcel on the Winnipeg River with a boat launch for Riverwood owners. Launch the boat, drop in a canoe, take the kayaks out after work, or cast a line without waiting on a public ramp.
Ownership is registered as a 1/10 undivided interest in Block 11 for each lot owner, with shared maintenance and decision-making handled through a co-ownership agreement. Nearby marina access also gives owners another option for seasonal slip rentals and larger vessels.

RU Rural Zoning
Not Just a House Lot
Riverwood's RU Rural forest lots are for buyers who need land they can actually use — room for a home, shop, storage, garden, trees, and future plans. RU zoning may offer broader rural-use flexibility than a typical residential-style lot, subject to City rules, permits, private servicing, lot-specific conditions, and buyer due diligence.
Room to Build
Low-density seasonal or permanent housing is part of the RU rural-use profile.
Shop, Storage & Equipment Potential
RU zoning may support rural-compatible uses such as contractor service, home industry, open storage, and workshop-oriented plans, depending on the specific setup and approvals required.
Gardens, Greenhouses & Rural Uses
Potential fit for serious gardens, greenhouse or nursery ideas, non-commercial farm use, forestry use, and outdoor recreation planning.
Room to Grow Into
Large acreage, shared river access, and flexible build timing give buyers more ways to use the property over time.
Zoning and permitted uses are subject to the City of Kenora Zoning By-law, permits, private servicing requirements, lot-specific conditions, setbacks, and buyer due diligence. Buyers should confirm their intended use directly with the City of Kenora before purchasing.

Exclusive to Riverwood Purchasers
From Raw Land to Build-Ready
Riverwood purchasers can access preferred on-site services for private driveway installation, selective lot clearing, access paths, and early site preparation. These services are available upon purchaser request and are not included in the base lot price.
Because our equipment and team are already working within the subdivision, we can help owners move from purchase to usable land faster than starting from scratch with an outside contractor unfamiliar with the terrain.
Private driveways are not included in the lot purchase price. Lots are sold as undeveloped land, giving each owner flexibility to choose where and how they want access created. Riverwood purchasers may request preferred on-site services for private driveway installation, selective clearing, access paths, and early site preparation.
Yes. We can walk the lot with you and discuss practical access routes based on terrain, tree cover, drainage, privacy, and your future building plans.
Riverwood does not impose additional architectural controls or a required build timeline, but all development must comply with City of Kenora requirements, zoning, permits, setbacks, and private servicing rules.
Several Riverwood lots are zoned RU — Rural — under the City of Kenora Zoning By-law. RU Rural zoning may allow a broader range of rural-compatible uses than a typical residential-style lot, including low-density residential, seasonal dwelling, home occupation, home industry, agricultural use, forestry use, contractor service, outdoor recreation, and related uses. Some uses are subject to additional rules, lot-size requirements, permits, private servicing, and approvals. Buyers should confirm their intended use directly with the City of Kenora and their own advisors before purchasing.
You may begin construction on your property once the purchase transaction has closed.
The subdivision is planned to be energized with Hydro One in the summer of 2026. Hydro One is actively working on the project. Power for each lot will be made available at the lot boundary.
There are no City sewage or water services available at our location. Each property will require its own independent services. Septic fields and water wells are typical in the area.
Each Riverwood owner receives a registered 1/10 undivided ownership interest in Block 11 — Riverwood's shared private waterfront access parcel — with governance and shared maintenance administered through a co-ownership agreement.
Buyers & Use
No. Riverwood is designed for buyers who want usable Kenora-area acreage — whether they live nearby, elsewhere in Northwestern Ontario, Manitoba, or beyond. For out-of-town buyers, the forest lots can work as a practical Kenora retreat, recreational base, or future-build property with private Winnipeg River access.
Yes, subject to City requirements, permits, setbacks, servicing, and the intended use. Several Riverwood lots are zoned RU Rural, which may support a broader range of rural-compatible uses than a standard residential-style lot. Buyers should confirm their plans directly with the City of Kenora before purchasing.
Riverwood's larger lot sizes provide room to plan for storage, but storage must comply with City zoning rules, setbacks, buffering requirements, and any applicable permits. If storage is part of your plan, confirm your intended setup with the City.
Yes. Many buyers may use Riverwood as a future home site, recreational base, or weekend retreat. The forest lots offer privacy, space, and shared private Winnipeg River access without needing to own direct waterfront.
Yes. Many buyers may choose to clear only what they need for access, a building site, septic, and outdoor use. The goal is not to flatten the land — it is to make it usable while keeping the Riverwood forest character.
Ownership & Structure
Yes. Flexible ownership structures are available for qualified purchasers on forest acreage lots.
The current ownership structure generally starts with a 30% minimum down payment, subject to final approval and documentation.
Yes. The structure is open with no prepayment penalty. You may refinance or pay out the balance at any time.
You are not required to build immediately. Riverwood is designed for long-term ownership, so you can hold your lot and plan at your own pace.
No. Monthly examples are calculated on the pre-tax purchase price only and are provided for illustration. Applicable HST, legal fees, and closing costs are additional and are handled at closing.
