Enjoy the Canadian Wildlife at Rough Rock Lodge
One of the perks of visiting an Ontario fishing lodge is the seemingly limitless exposure to Canadian wildlife. With summer in full swing, many native animal species are fully active, moving about in search of mates and food. From roaming black bears to playful otters, Rough Rock Lodge & Outpost is home to a diverse assortment of fauna to enjoy on your Ontario vacation. While most of us have observed animals in their natural habitat, watching the squirrels and chipmunks forage at the bird feeder isn't exactly what you'll witness at resorts in Ontario. We've put together a few guidelines to help you make the most of your exciting retreat and maximize your wildlife viewing experience.
