Map and Directions to Montague Cottage
Getting to Montague Cottage takes two steps, a drive to Pickerel River Trailer Park followed by a short boat ride across the bay. Below are full driving directions from the Ontario border crossings and a boat route once you arrive at the trailer park.
From the Trailer Park to the Cottage
Step 1: Drive to Pickerel River Trailer Park. An interactive Google map is available for driving directions, and GPS coordinates are provided for the most direct route.
Step 2: Take a short, two minute boat ride to Montague Cottage. From the boat launch at Pickerel River Trailer Park, head east around the point into the bay. Montague Cottage is the third cottage on the east shore, in the first bay east of the trailer park. The dock has two large sections and a swim raft out front.
Step 3: Relax, explore and enjoy your week on the water. We will help arrange a boat rental or water taxi for the duration of your stay.
Driving Directions
If you are crossing the border at Buffalo (Fort Erie), follow the QEW toward Toronto. If crossing from Grand Island (Queenston), follow Highway 405 until it joins the QEW, then take the QEW toward Toronto. Do not take Highway 403 west to Hamilton.
A mile or so past the Burlington Skyway, you can take the 407 Toll Highway or continue on the QEW toward Toronto. The 407 connects to Highway 400 north toward Barrie, about 70 kilometres away. Staying on the QEW takes you through Oakville to the 403 north, with another option to pick up the 407 or continue on the 403 to Highway 401 east and then Highway 400.
From Detroit or Windsor, take the 401 east toward Toronto. From Port Huron or Sarnia, take the 402, which joins the 401 at London, then continue east on the 401 toward Toronto and follow the directions above.
Once on Highway 400, follow it north past Barrie toward Parry Sound and Sudbury. After passing the Bass Pro store on the 400 north, you are about 3 hours from Pickerel River Trailer Park. Take the Settlers Road exit, then turn right onto Pickerel River Road at the stop sign. There is a gas station on Pickerel River Road, 1 kilometre from the main highway, along with a few coffee shops and restaurants on the route.
