CABIN ON VALLEY ROAD, DORION, ONTARIO
$35,000.00 US
Located on Valley Road, in Dorion Township, only 40 miles east of the City of Thunder Bay..
The Dorion area is known as “CANYON COUNTRY” because of the famous Ouimet Canyon .
The cabin sits on 40 acres of land (1/4 mile square).
The property has 1/4 mile (1,320 feet) of frontage on the Valley Road.
Valley Road is a Township road, maintained by the Township of Dorion, an all weather road open year round.
This cabin is 16 feet by 24 feet in size. The roof is of asphalt shingles and in good condition.
Inside are two bedrooms and an open combination living room and kitchen.
The cabin is wired for generator, though electrical power could be brought to the cabin as the hydro is available along the Valley road.
The property was harvested a little over five years ago and the new growth is looking very good. This has attracted the deer...lots of them!! Their tracks can be found all over the property.
Dorion is a community of approximately 382 people, located in Northern Ontario on Highway #17, 65 km east of Thunder Bay and 35 km west of Nipigon. In terms of affiliation and market orientation, it identifies with the Nipigon/Red Rock area and the large urban centre of Thunder Bay.
Ouimet Canyon, a spectacular 150 metre wide gorge, is located in the Township of Dorion, about 65 kilometres northeast of Thunder Bay.
The canyon is only 10 minutes from the cabin.
From the lookout platforms on the canyon rim, the land beneath your feet falls 100 metres ( 328 feet ) straight down to the canyon floor. Arctic plants, generally found 1000 kilometres to the north, survive in the cool, moist habitat of the canyon.
Ouimet Canyon is a gorge, cut into the rock of Lake Superior’s northern shore. Ice, wind and rain, the architects of time, have chiseled deep into the Canadian Shield to form one of the most striking canyons of Eastern Canada.
Across the 150-metre gap (492 feet), huge columns of diabase rock reach skyward to form a spectacular and gigantic rock wall. To the north, the canyon pinches and twists into the surrounding hills. To the south, its folds open to a broad valley and grand vista of Lake Superior.
IF YOU LIKE TO FISH
The north shore of Lake Superior has some of the most beautiful Steelhead and Brook Trout waters in Ontario. Nestled into the glacier-scratched face of the Pre-Cambrian Shield are hundreds of pristine rivers, streams, and creeks.
Most flow clean, cold, and swift, and few of them see the kind of pressure that's common on southern-Ontario streams.
Though all north-shore tributaries have a spring run of Lake Superior steelhead, a handful provide the lion's share of fishing. This short list of steelhead and Brook Trout waters within a 15 minute drive from this property should keep even the most picky fisherman satisfied and busy.
Two of the best known rivers in the area are the Wolf River and Coldwater Creek.
Wolf River
A classic freestone river, the Wolf is scenic, with surrounding cliffs and more than 7 miles of fishable water. Numerous corner pools, riffles, and rapids lead to an impassable falls several miles up from Hwy. 17, which offers access to numerous corner pools and a small falls and lamprey weir. Several bush roads north and railway tracks south of Hwy. 17 afford access to miles of water. It's a great river for float fishing and fly fishing, with open bends and gravel beds and room to cast. Deep pools and tail-outs hold large steelhead.
Coldwater Creek
This fertile, often silted creek is a productive fall steelhead producer, but can be tough to fish. Access is from Hwy. 17, as well as several bush roads to the north. There are more than 10 miles of fishable water available to those who wish to brave the Coldwater's brambles. Deep pools hold steelhead, and lots of Brook Trout.
There are numerous small lakes nearby, all within a 15-30 min drive from the cabin that also offer excellent Lake Trout and Brook Trout fishing.
