Algonquin - Filling Water Tanks
It has been sometime since I have been in Algonquin and I am returning in July. Can anyone refresh my memory of where the fresh water filling station is? Perhaps you have GPS coordinates even? ...

As most everyone has mentioned, fresh water is available at the dumpstations. For Pog lake, you'll want to go to the "Trailer Sanitary Station" at km 35.6 (just over 1 km west of Pog Lake, on highway 60, on the north side of the road).
You can also fill-up at one of the taps in Pog Lake. They are a mix of old-style keep-pushing-down-to-keep-on taps with threadless spiggots and regular taps with threaded spiggots. I've never had too much trouble using either with a water thief, but its inevitable that I also end up with a shoe full of water. You'll likely be blocking a campground road while filling, so be polite, be quick and plan on filling at a time when there's little traffic.
