Just returned and my family and friend enjoyed and relaxed during the the spectacular Fall weather at this clean, beautiful West Nipissing Resort. The view from this cottage was breathtaking.

We also visited Lavigne, Sturgeon Falls, and North Bay and (2) tourism offices, wonderful staff, the Dionne info booth, and shopped, Neat Stuff store on Hwy 17 (new) really nice owner also TBIS, the wonderful bakery in Sturgeon Falls, the shop next to it, my friend purchased a lovelyl framed inspirational message "Every new day is a Blessing,LCBO, Metro, saw a movie, purchased meals, and purchased fuel for vehicles.

So I think we helped the economy a little and it reassured me that these places up north have very nice people and working very industriously.
