|
| 1. | Take highway #401 East from Toronto. Just past Bowmanville, exit on #115/35 North towards Peterborough. |
| 2. | Travel for 45 km (just before Peterborough), then exit onto highway #7/28 (Do NOT take the first #7A exit - Moore Drive to Cavan.) Turn right (north) towards Fowler"s Corners on #7, NOT left (south) on #28 towards Port Hope on the 401. Travel for 12 km to Fowler's Corners. |

| 4. | Follow along Boundary Road for 8.7 km as it takes a sharp right turn (east) and becomes Edenderry Road. At the stop sign, turn left (north) onto #16 Tara Road. |
| 5. | Continue along #16 Tara Road for about 5.5 km and you will cross the bridge at Gannons Narrows, which separates Pigeon Lake from Buckhorn Lake. You are now only about 10 minutes away. |
| 6. | Continue along #16 for another 8 km and just as you enter a 50 km/h zone at Lakehurst, turn left (north) onto Lakehurst Circle Road. If you see Sandy Lake, you've gone too far. |
| 7. | Go 1 km and take a right turn onto Adams/Cummings Road. Travel for 2.3 km. Just over a small blind hill (slow down!), turn right towards Sandy Lake. We are fire route 51. |

| N.B. | If you get lost, call toll free 1-866-416-WOOD (9663). The entire trip from the top of the Don Valley Parkway will take less than 2 hours. |
| From Ottawa: |
|
| 1. | Travel on hwy #7 west through Havelock and Norwood. |
| 2. | A short while later, turn right onto #134 north. There is a traffic light and a donut shop at this intersection. #134 will bypass Peterborough and Lakefield and become #28 north. |
| 3. | Continue north on #28 past Young's Point to Burleigh Falls. |
| 4. | Just past Burleigh Falls, turn left onto #36 west to Buckhorn. |
| 5. | The first stop sign you'll see is the junction of #507 in Buckhorn. Continue straight through the intersection onto #16 or Lakehurst Road. |
| 6. | The road winds its way through Buckhorn past the lock on the Trent Canal and heads out of town. After about 5 minutes, you'll enter a 50 km/h zone. You should see the beach at the bottom of Sandy Lake on your right. Just as you are about to leave the 50 km/h zone, turn right onto Lakehurst Circle Road. |
| 7. | Go 1 km on Lakehurst Circle Road, then turn right onto Adams/Cummings Road. |

| From Kingston you can either: |
|
| A) | Perhaps the fastest way is to cut up north from the 401 to hwy #7 west (whatever your favourite route is) so that you pass through Havelock and Norwood. Then follow the above directions from Ottawa from point 2. |
| B) | Or stay on the 401 west to Port Hope, and exit on #28 north. Stay on #28, which becomes #7 at Peterborough, to Fowler's Corners and then follow the above directions from Toronto from point 3. |
