Founded in 1907, the Sixteen Island Lake Fishing Club was made up of resident recreational fisherman, who saw the need enforce fishing regulations and ensure the protection of the fish in Sixteen Island Lake and its neighbouring lakes. As the years past the interest in fishing faded and social and waterfront activities took its place.

In 1947, the Club House was built in its current location. Social events were hosted most Saturday nights throughout the summer season. In 1952, the first lifeguard was hired and the Club dock came to life during the hot summer afternoons.

Over the years the club programming evolved with the help of several activities directors. Activities included instructional swimming lessons, lifesaving, diving, boating, sailing, aqua fitness, pilates and more. 

A strong community has always be in place at the club with its members hosting all sorts of social events. Dinners, dances, skit nights, children's parties and more have been occurring seasonally for all its members to enjoy.
