White Otter Lake Loop: Spend 7 days paddling on the amazing Turtle River system. The trip will start at the Highway 622 bridge from there we will paddle up stream on the Turtle River, from there we will lake hop to White Otter Lake.

White otter lake is home to many hidden secrets from from historical indigenous vision-seeing pits to natural caves. There is also an early 19th century logging camp and prisoner of war camp on its shores.

Most impressive though is the marvel that is “The White Otter castle”

“Woodsman Jimmy McOuat completed this house in 1915 when he was sixty years old. Ever since people have wondered why and how he built it. McOuat claimed that as a child in the Ottawa valley he was once scolded "Ye'll never do no good! Ye'll die in a shack!" and that he resolved late in life to avoid such a fate. Single-handedly he felled trees, winched them from the woods, and hewed them square. With block and tackle he raised massive logs onto platforms and into place. Roofing and windows were hauled in across fifteen portages from Ignace. McOuat drowned nearby in 1918, leaving this wilderness mansion as his monument.”
