It's been a pleasure to go to Dollars Lake Island Resort! Everything was perfect! The view from the cottage was amazing! We rented 3 rooms and all of them were clean. We had everything we need in the kitchen! Kids enjoyed too. The playroom was great, plenty of toys! Thanks to the owners!

I just love coming here with my family and friends. Laurie and Ken are so kind and helpful, we keep coming back! There is plenty to do to keep the kids busy which gives us grown ups time to relax as well.

My fist trip was awesome. It is a place where your problems melt away and you can relax. The hosts are the most friendly and accommodating. I can't wait to go back.

This island is our home away from home. Thanks to Ken and Laurie, we look forward to visiting this exceptionally beautiful place for many more years to come!
Jim & Kirsten
Just back from our 3rd trip to this gem! It's the perfect place to vacation with family and friends. The children get to play all day....with sand at the beach, jumping off the dock, tubing, kayaking, fishing, floating on Big Mable, boat trips, and searching for Cocoa Bean. When they need a break from the sun or the rain, the lodge has movies, puzzles, and toys galore. The clean cabins have absolutely everything you need and gorgeous views of the lake. Every year the improvements you've made, make the resort even nicer. Ken & Laurie are the most wonderful hosts, always going above and beyond to make this a very special time for our children. Thank you

A fantastic place! Rooms are super clean and have all the amenities you need for a comfortable stay. The hospitality is second to none. A great place to relax and unwind. You can bring your own boat or rent one, the fishing is great too! Look forward to going to Dollars Lake again :)

Just spent our second year in a row, and we had a fantastic time. Laurie and Ken are truly gracious hosts. The cabins have everything you need and are very comfortable. I recommend Dollars Lake Island Resort for an unforgettable experience.

About Us
Formerly known as Whip-Poor-Will Lodge, Dollars Lake Island Resort is a small pine-covered island with small rustic cabins located near the town of Port Loring, district of Parry Sound.
Our Island retreat is located on Dollars Lake which is part of Northern Ontario's famous Pickerel River system which runs northwest through the Georgian Bay Forest Reserve. Dollars Lake is also part of the Pickerel and Wolf River canoe route.
This country is a maze of rivers and lakes which abound with pickerel, pike, walleye, bass, whitefish, crappie and pan fish. From the Dollars Lake dam to Port Loring, anglers have 43 miles of navigable water bordered by rugged shoreline that is mostly crown land. Popular angling spots are Stumpy, Noggard and Pontford Bays and the Wolf River.
Using live bait and jigging on a rocky shoal, trolling the shoreline or casting a crank bait along the edge of a weed bed in one of the many quiet bays will result in success.
Our Resort is accessible only by motorboat which we rent or you can bring your own. We also have a FREE shuttle service to and from the island if you do not have a boat.
You can enjoy a daily canoe trip, swimming, and abundant bird and wild life viewing. The scenery is stunning and absolutely breath taking. It is advisable when bringing children to bring a life preserver. This offers complete safety for them while out in a boat. It also saves a good deal of uneasiness for the parents when the children are playing around the water. It is also advised to bring water soled shoes as the rocks can be very slippery.
Dollars Lake Island Resort may be remote, but you're not going to have to rough it. Rent one of our cabins suitable for families and fishermen. Our Lodge is available as a common area for guests to lounge in our living room area or read a book.
The dining area is a great spot to have a game of cards or play board games or just a place to socialize with a cup of coffee.
The outdoor deck on the Lodge has a couple of picnic tables for outdoor dining with great views of the lake. The sounds of the loons and birds are most enjoyable.
All our cabins face the water and have decks with chairs.
Each cabin is fully equipped with everything you need for an enjoyable vacation. All you need to bring is your food and toiletries All cabins have a 3 piece bath (shower, toilet and vanity) Sorry we do not have bathtubs.
The beds have pillows and linens available but you are more than welcome to bring your own.
We supply small towels but you will have to bring your own beach towels.
Each room has a fridge, coffee maker, 2 element stove, toaster and microwave. We supply dishes, cutlery, pots and pans.
There is also barbecues for outdoor cooking on the deck in front of all cabins. All guests will have to prepare a meal plan and bring their own food and drinks. There is a couple small stores in Port Loring which is about a 20 minute drive. Parry Sound and Sudbury are about an hour away. Allow 15 or 20 minutes for the commute to the mainland.
Nearby activities include the Nickel Mine Tour, Science Centre, Trading Post, Golf and the Georgian Bay 30,000 Island cruise. Jake's Place and Roxie's Diner are popular eating spots in Port Loring. Also new for 2018 is Port Shores which has scenic boat tours, small restaurant, gift shop and coffee shop. They are also located in Port Loring.
