McLaren's Bay is a Dispersed rural community and unincorporated place in geographic Parkman Township[3] in the Unorganized North Part of Nipissing District in Central Ontario, Canada.[1][4][5][6] The community lies on the eponymous McLaren's Bay[7] on the west shore of Lake Timiskaming, at the mouth of Opimika Creek. McLaren's Point is just north of the community.[8]

A tertiary road leads from McLaren's Bay southwest to the railway point of Diver, on the Ontario Northland Railway, and—via a subsequent branching tertiary road—south to Ontario Highway 63, at a point about halfway between that highway's crossing over the Jocko River and Lake Timiskaming.[4]
