Harrops Point was named for its original owners Bert and Agnes Harrop. The couple ran the Floating Tearoom, a definite lunch destination for many Rainbow Lodge guests. Today, it is the location of the YHA Youth Hostel.

Lost Lake was originally the site of a logging mill. However, it was so picturesque that is was also a popular place for picnics and swimming. While the mill is no longer there, the lake is now a park and remains a beautiful place for a sunny summer day.
