GeographyKenabeek and its surrounding area is mostly sand with a bit of rock, and a shallow amount of topsoil, and therefore is not good agricultural land. There are a number of small lakes within two or three miles (5 km) of Kenabeek, mostly privately owned. Many are muskeg lakes and others are surrounded by swamp. Several of the lakes are home to loons. Land in the Kenabeek area is mostly used for growing hay and potatoes, and in a few cases for grazing a small number of cattle for local use. HistoryKenabeek was founded at some time in the early 1920s as a post office,{{cn|date=January 2017}} since the nearest post office at the time was in Thornloe, about {{convert|15|mi|km}} away, a long distance by horse and wagon. Other than farms (160 acre plots, a few with multiple homes, usually multi-generation family) there are no houses falling within the village, so the town is considered to be the General Store, Post Office and volunteer Fire Station.{{cn|date=January 2017}} Kenabeek and the surrounding area was hit by the Great Fire of 1922 (the Haileybury fire of 1922) which wiped out hundreds of acres of land and many homes in and around Kenabeek. Most of the residents of the Kenabeek area can trace their families back two and three generations. Boundaries and residentsThe Kenabeek town signs are placed about {{convert|3|mi|km}} from the General Store and Post Office, but the surrounding homes are mostly on the original {{convert|160|acre|km2|adj=on}} farm plots, except for a few homes carved out of those plots for extended family or friends, and are not town-homes. In addition to the General Store and Post Office, there is a volunteer fire department and building and a community centre. The community centre is the original one-room schoolhouse which housed grades 1 to 8 until sometime in the 1960s. The current caretaker of the Community Center is Jean Byerlay. Other attractionsExcept for the residents, their families and friends and a few who trace their families back to the Kenabeek area, there are no real attractions, no public lakes or cottage areas.{{cn|date=January 2017}} The main attraction for visitors is the remoteness and wildness of the land and forests,{{cn|date=January 2017}} a great contrast to the larger metropolitan areas to the south.
