DOUG ARMSTRONG

It's with great enthusiasm that I open a new chapter as a REALTOR® with RE/MAX NorthWest Realty. After a fulfilling 35-year career in financial services with Great West Life and several years of recreational real estate, I realized that retirement wasn't quite for me. 

My connection to Lake of the Woods runs deep. Since acquiring our family's four-season retreat a decade ago, I've been captivated by the area's real estate market. This career allows me to combine my personal and professional interests, a perfect fit!

Having lived year-round on Storm Bay Road, I've experienced the unique beauty of each season, making it increasingly difficult to return to city life. Lake of the Woods is truly where my heart belongs.

A lifelong sports enthusiast, I grew up in a competitive family. My background includes professional curling in Manitoba, where I secured three provincial titles and one national championship. Golf is another passion, and I cherish the opportunity to play at both Kenora courses, even arriving by boat!

My wife Charlotte and I have a blended family. We love spending time with our children and grandchildren, especially when they visit the lake. With deep roots in the area, Charlotte is a fifth-generation cottage owner whose family has enjoyed Coney Island for years. Her commitment to Kenora is evident through her active involvement in local boards and committees. We both anticipate becoming even more engaged in the community now that I'm here full time.
