Lower Cost Gas Station
Broken Canoe Trading Post
This is a gas station with a little Mart. Anything you need quickly for automotive, and even low cost cigarettes, this is the place.
Mississagi River Picnic Ground
Picnic Here! Scenic Views.
This is a beautiful fast-moving river.
I believe it's a bit shallow.
My friends had gone kayaking here, even with the blowup Kayak.
Grocery Store, Blind River
Hutton's valu-mart
This is a pretty big grocery store with all fresh produce, meats.
Dollar Store
Right beside Grocery Store. Inexpensive fun stuff! More than $1 thou!
Cool Events:
( as per our incredible, most recent guest, Jeff, and family! Thank you, Jeff!)
Lumberjack day in Blind River seems to be every Civic Long weekend and appears to be a big festival,
same goes for Community Day in Thessalon.
Museum in Iron Bridge is a good little pit stop and a great way to get to know the area better. (Highly recommend this)
THE 12 SIDED BARN!!!!- Jeff says, I don't know if my inner farmer is coming out here but this was a cool visit for me and was only about 10 mins up the road towards Thessalon.
They appear to only be open on Saturdays from 9am - 2 pm and it includes a Farmers Market (produce, art, baking), Crafts and Coffee.
I know weird but fun fact, there's only 4 of these in Ontario. Thank you Jeff!
and so close to our property.
Beach's in the area:
Thessalon Beach - Could be the best beach around and only 18 mins from the cottage, "we were all dumbfounded when we got to this beach every time around 11 am thinking it would be packed as there is a trailer park just behind it but nope NOT A SOUL!"
Says Jeff!
Sand bars allow for a lot of shallow water.
Little Basslake Beach - Fishing area solely.
Fourth Sand Beach (Blind River) - this one is worth the 25 min drive.
Beautiful stretch of sand bars.
