Central Frontenac.

Central Frontenac sits in the heart of Frontenac County's Land O' Lakes country, where the southern Canadian Shield's granite outcrops and small interconnected lakes meet the Highway 7 corridor at Sharbot Lake. The township was amalgamated in 1998 from the four former townships of Hinchinbrooke, Kennebec, Olden, and Oso, and centres on the village of Sharbot Lake at the junction of Highway 7 and County Road 38 — about an hour north of Kingston, two hours from Ottawa.

The K&P Trail, on the abandoned Kingston & Pembroke Railway corridor, runs through the village; Sharbot Lake was the major mid-line junction station on the original 1884 line, with a connection to the Canadian Pacific Ottawa–Toronto route. Sharbot Lake Provincial Park sits at the village along Highway 7 with a frontcountry campground and day-use beach.

The township sits within the Algonquins of Ontario land-claim area; Shabot Obaadjiwan First Nation, one of the nine Algonquin communities party to the negotiations, is the home community at Sharbot Lake.
