Redstone Lake Cottagers' Association

Good description, but I beg to differ on the reason for Redstone’s name. While Pelaw Lake’s waters are stained reddish-brown from marsh and swamp drainage, Redstone’s waters are, as a rule, clear blue, or greenish-blue. This is because large bodies of water (large, relative to their stained inflows) process out the organic matter revealing water’s natural pale blue color.
Little Redstone’s waters can be almost as dark as Pelaw’s or almost as blue as Redstone’s, depending upon the amount of recent rain and corresponding inflow from the Redstone River.
Redstone is allegedly and plausibly named for the patches of red rock seen within the cliffs, most noticable following recent rockfalls when the rock cleaves along thin planes of red stone concealed within the much more common grey gneiss.
