The primary inflow of water to the lake actually originates in Minden from the Gull River. With clean and clear waters and beautiful rocky and sandy shorelines Balsam is a highly desired lake in the Kawartha Region. Sitting on a wide section of Limestone most lots on the lake are flat with easy water access.
