Coming from Southern Ontario, you will head north on Hwy. 69 to Sudbury and then west on Hwy. 17 until you reach Thessalon. From Thessalon
you take Highway 129 north. Here is a map of Northern Ontario which shows the route.
There is a shortcut which most people take. Once you are in Sudbury you also have another option. You can take Highway 144 North in the direction of Timmins. About three fourths of the way along Highway 144, before you reach Highway 101, you will see a logging road with public access which heads west towards the town of Sultan. This is 30 miles of gravel road but usually in good condition. Here is a map which shows the shortcut between Highway 144 and the town of Sultan.
If you live close to Windsor, you have the option of crossing into Michigan and heading north on Interstate 75 to Sault Ste. Marie. Here is a road map.

Coming from the United States, you drive through Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan, where you cross into the Canadian Sault. From there it is only 190 miles, about three and a half hours to Chapleau. From the Canadian Sault you have two choices. Option one: You can take Highway 17 North to Wawa and then Highway 101 East to Chapleau. Or option two: Take Highway 17 East to Thessalon and then Highway 129 North to Chapleau. Here is a road map.
We do not recommend Highway 556 from Sault Ste. Marie past Ranger Lake to Highway 129. It is a gravel road, can be quite rough and will cost you much time and maybe the price of a new muffler. The other roads that we recommend are excellent and all paved. Here are some road maps.

By airline. If you live so far away from Chapleau that driving is impractical, you might consider traveling by commercial airline. Coming from the U.S., you can fly as far as Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan. There, you can have a rental car waiting and make Chapleau in a four hour drive. Last we checked, there were two car rental agencies at in the Sault airport terminal. They were AVIS 1-906-495-5900 and HERTZ 1-906-495-5190.
Please call us if you cannot get here by 6 pm on Saturday. Here is a map for you to look at. You can take either Highway 17 East to Thessalon and then Highway 129 to Chapleau, or Highway 17 North to Wawa and then Highway 101 East to Chapleau. These routes take you through some truly gorgeous country with breathtaking views of the lakes and rivers.
Arriving in Chapleau, you can easily find our boat house. You will come
