Ontario Travel and Vacation Information
Ontario's Sunset Country is a wondrous land of 100,000 lakes, 60,000 square miles of boreal forest and a wilderness landscape with few rivals in North America. If you want to go fishing in Ontario our lakes harbor species like muskie, northern pike, walleye, smallmouth bass and lake trout. Sunset Country also has excellent Ontario big game hunting for bear, moose and whitetail deer. This is Canadian Shield country, a truly remarkable region of Canada. A land where the majestic moose roams the forest and bald eagles soar overhead. In fact, it's about as close to heaven as you can get while your feet are still firmly planted on the ground!Ontario's Sunset Country Travel Association represents 264 vacation resorts and fishing lodges on hundreds of different lakes. You can also get information from us about houseboat rentals or information about places to go camping in Ontario. If you'll be visiting one of our communities or just traveling through and you want to make a hotel reservation or stay at a motel or a bed and breakfast, you can find more info here. We also represent over 123 Canadian retail and service businesses ready to provide you with the goods and services you will need during your stay. When you are ready to find out more, we're here to help you get started on your dream vacation to Canada's wilderness backcountry.
Sunset Country is a place where life is different. This is where the haunting cry of the loon replaces the buzz of the city. Where the only ringing in your ears is from your buddy screaming he's got a trophy-sized fish on the end of his line. Think about it, a wilderness setting essentially unchanged from what it was three centuries ago. That's what you'll experience if you visit Northwest Ontario's Sunset Country!
