Checked it out for the first time today, really neat history! Be careful of your vehicle choice, the road is worn down. Use an SUV or a pickup, avoid smaller cars.

Went there with some family friends and ended up talking to the father of the current owner. He said they planned on demolishing the mill and constructing a hunting camp in its place but ended up changing their minds (thankfully!) The general store has been bought by the owner of the mill and they are currently renovating it.

I have pictures of this place I''ve been meaning to add but just a heads up - I went there earlier this summer and went around the side of the place, there is dogs in all of the buildings that will start barking when you go near. Took a total of 5 mins for me to get caught, I told the old couple I was taking pictures but she was rather hostile yelling at me she was calling the police. I was polite but got outta there real quick. It looks like it''s mostly been turned into a dump with whoever own

Adjusted the GPS as it was 1.5km off.

I never get tired of exploring Opeongo road.

The mill is mostly collapsed or sunken in, but still managed to check it out inside. Had a chance to checkout another smaller house, but never got the chance to check out the general store as one of the residents basically ran us out of the town for being next to the mill under trespassing. Still a hand full or two people living in balaclava, and are not happy to see new comers.
The old shop across from the mill is really neat, they left behind all kinds of ledgers and information about the mill. A lot of personal items there. My mom told me that in the 70s/80s there was a fire there and my mom helped put it out.

I'm moving to this area this summer. Excited to start checking out the things in that area.

I'm going back in the spring time. I will explore the inside of those buildings.
Local fire department wanted to use them as fire practice but the environment got involved because of the asbestos.
They also purchased the school and hospital, one of the member lives in the hospital and keeps an eye on the buildings. This time, I was alone but I plan on going back in the fall with a few more people and I will get in the Algonquin building (green one) that has been partially renovated and lived in. It's also open and has easy access to it.
Outstanding view. Nice place. Spoke to a resident, he had alot of interesting information to share. So the buildings (Barracks) are owned by a religious group from Toronto. They paid $5000 for the 5 buildings and the land. Nothing can be done to save them without putting out a significant amount of money to restore them.
Very nice!!! Thanks. I might go this weekend.
Has anyone actually got in the buildings? I'm from the Ottawa Valley and this is my next exploration destination.
