Trent Lakes is a rural area with an abundance of forested Crown Land. A motor vehicle is a required method of transportation due to travel distances for services, work and other purposes.

Currently there is no available public transit system in Trent Lakes. Trent Lakes is also not part of a passenger rail system or airport facility. Nearby Peterborough has available public transit, GO Train connection and an airport with passenger and freight services.

Traditionally Trent Lakes has been a commute and cottage haven for residents seeking a peaceful rural, or adventurous outdoor life. Residents can often relax anytime after work on a week day with activities normally reserved only for cottagers on weekends. Cottagers enjoy more time enjoying summer activities and less time on the road than other cottage centres.
