Driftwood Provincial Park
















Located Midway between Deep River and Bissett Bay along the Ottawa River some 200 miles north of Ottawa. Try to find those two places on the map. When we first got here we were assigned site #4. Big mistake. Turns out that area is reserved for tents. Shortly after we started down the road it became very apparent we were not going to fit. After a 45 minute exercise in backing up on a very narrow one lane dirt road we discovered the person who assigned the site had just started as a summer student employee and had no idea what she was doing. But it ended up really well. We have a water front site with plenty of room all around and spectacular views in all directions. Stayed 3 nights and loved it. Did go into “town” of Deep River but not much there. Back at camp lots of trails and we had some really long hikes in the woods. Temps in the high 60’s, zero humidity, drizzle in the mornings sunshine in the afternoon. One side note….we have had the heat set for 68 and it’s come on every night since we hit Pennsylvania
