EASTERN ONTARIO MAP

HOW TO FIND US

Our unique museum is located approximately two hours northwest of Ottawa, just a short block off the trans-Canada Highway 17 at 60 James Street in the west end of the town of Deep River.  Watch for our eastbound and westbound blue & white Ontario Tourism signs on the highway.  Turn in at the Thomas Street sign, then turn right on James Street.  The museum is on your left.
