Approximately mid-2010s. The aerodrome was listed as active in Canadian flight planning documents in the early 2010s but was removed from official publications like the Canada Flight Supplement by 2017. An exact date is not publicly recorded.
The aerodrome was a private facility, indicated by its 'Prior Permission Required' (PPR) status. The closure was most likely due to the owner ceasing aviation activities, selling the property, or simply allowing the registration with Transport Canada to lapse. There is no evidence to suggest it was closed for military, commercial, or safety-related reasons.
The site, Girwood Island (ĂŽle Girwood), is a private residential property. Satellite imagery shows a single large residence, extensive woods, and a dock. While the dock could potentially moor a floatplane, the location is no longer a registered aerodrome with Transport Canada.
The aerodrome had no significant military or commercial history. Its sole purpose was to serve as a private, registered landing area for seaplanes and floatplanes on the Lake of Two Mountains. Operations were limited to general aviation aircraft, presumably for the personal use of the island's owner and their guests.
There are no known plans or prospects for reopening Girwood Island Water Aerodrome. Any potential for reopening would be entirely dependent on the private owner's desire to re-register the site with Transport Canada. It is highly unlikely to be reopened as a public facility.
