From Toronto to Restoule Provincial Park Ontario.

What is the best route to take from Toronto to Restoule Provincial Park in a 31 ft Class A Motorhome. The GPS is taking me on some roads that are questionable. Has anyone done this trip?

  • Do you think the old lodge is still there ? I could have a look around for you if you can remember where exactly it was.



    I'd have no idea if it were still there, Bill. It was a very long time ago,I was young and have no clue where it was except on the lake. I don't remember any form of civilization anywhere near it.

    I remember making a sailboat and playing in the lake, my uncle fishing from the pier and pulling in a fish every time he threw the line in. And driving everyone nuts trying to keep me from wandering off in the woods exploring because someone had wounded a bear and it has killed a hunter and was still out there. But thanks for the offer, and if you happen to run across an old lodge I'd sure like to hear about it. Have a nice trip.

    I made that trip once, it was in 1947 and I was 9. My uncle had a hunting and fishing lodge on the lake there and as I got in my teens I had visions of going up there and helping him run it. But he sold it and went to FL and got ripped by crooked developers and lawyers. I told my aunt it was well he passed away because I would have killed him myself otherwise. Sorry I didn’t answer your question, but it’s the first post I ever recall seeing about Restoule. And I wonder how he would have fared had he stayed there.

  • Highway 11 / Route 522 / Route / Route 524 / Route 534 to Park Entrance? Google Maps with Street view is your friend... roads don't seem to be an issue for a 31 footer, I'd be more than comfortable going along with my rig.
