Getting Here
The Lake of the Woods Museum is located at 300 Main Street South
in Kenora, Ontario, Canada. Kenora is located in Northwestern
Ontario and is the last major community in Ontario before entering
Manitoba. The city, nestled on the north shore of beautiful Lake of
the Woods, is easily accessible by highway. In fact, the Trans
Canada Highway runs right through the middle of town, heading 200
kms west to Winnipeg, and 500 kms east to Thunder Bay. The
Canada-United States border is about a 2 1/2 hour drive to the
south.
