Rocky Point is a urban community in Carleton, Ontario, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Rocky Point is located at 45.3500°N, 75.8333°W.

Rocky Point lies nestled where the Ottawa River begins to widen, its shores a gentle curve of weathered rock and tenacious pines. It lies 12.9 km south-west of Gatineau, ON (from Gatineau, ON: bearing 228°T), and is situated 15.9 km east of Carp. The land rises and falls with a quiet dignity, offering glimpses of cultivated fields interspersed with stands of hardwood, their leaves catching the sun in a shifting mosaic of greens. In the late afternoon, a haze often softens the distant treelines, and the air carries the faint, earthy scent of damp soil and decaying leaves, a perfume of a land that has settled into its own seasons. Here, the river’s breath is a constant presence, a subtle murmur that shapes the very character of the place. The history of Rocky Point is deeply entwined with the flow of the Ottawa, a vital artery for trade and settlement since the earliest days. Logging once dominated the local economy, the timber rafts a common sight, and the echoes of that industry linger in the weathered barns and the sturdy, practical nature of its people. Today, agriculture remains a cornerstone, with farms producing a bounty of crops that feed the wider region, their fields a testament to generations of tending the soil. While no grand monuments mark its past, the quiet resilience of Rocky Point, the enduring connection to the land and the river, speaks volumes of its enduring spirit.
