EtRider Posted December 8, 2015 Share #51 Posted December 8, 2015 Don, Make sure you get to Dorset and check out Robinson's general store. And the view from the old fire tower (if still available) just north of Dorset is awesome if you have never been there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XV1100SE Posted December 9, 2015 Author Share #52 Posted December 9, 2015 I still have to call and talk to the owners but the place I'm thinking of is "South Wind Motel and Campground" in Minden. http://www.southwindmotel.ca/ 6254 County Rd 121 Minden, Ontario K0M 2K0 Close to Gravenhurst, Algonquin, Huntsville, Haliburton, Fenelon Falls.... https://www.google.ca/maps/place/South+Wind+Motel+%26+Campground/@44.5191086,-79.639771,8.25z/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x4cd50e60c9b769e3:0x9cb6af1b677bbd83 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Posted December 9, 2015 Share #53 Posted December 9, 2015 Don, can't make this one as we'll be in the middle of 10 wk west/central States tour. Quite familiar with Mind-Hal district having worked for a couple of decades. No problem with any info if I can help out. Also have a couple of contacts to answer specific questions. Lot's of good touring routes anywhere around the area. How can you go wrong with Kawartha Dairy on Hwy 35 Minden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmy99 Posted December 14, 2015 Share #54 Posted December 14, 2015 I'm in. Looks like a great area to ride for a few days. My daughter will likely tag along if my wife can't make it so it will be me +1 regardless. We will rent a room at the hotel. Jimmy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XV1100SE Posted January 7, 2016 Author Share #55 Posted January 7, 2016 UPDATED : The motel/campground has a Jeep group during the weekend of July 7-10 so I've booked July 21-24 (I'm not available on the 16th). I'll change the calendar entry to reflect the new dates and create a new thread for the Rally. Give it a few more days before booking as I spoke with the owner's daughter and once I speak with the owner to confirm they have us, and to see about group rates (would depend on how many people attend). South Wind Motel and Campground 6254 County Rd 121 Minden, Ontario K0M 2K0 705 286 2152 Toll Free : 866-356-6835 (not sure if the 866 number is working) http://www.southwindmotel.ca/accommodations.html Reservations would be made as part of the Venture Rider group. I will delete any names that had been put into the calendar so please update for the new date range Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
