I was wondering what other U.S. folks are doing for insurance on there cabins in Ontario ? We have owned ours for some time now and we have ours insured with a local N.Ontario company, they keep hastling us about the exchange rate.Our home owners here in the states won't insure outside the country(Allstate) Do you know of other companys that insure up there? Not a really big problem of coarse, just wish I could spend more time up there !!!
thanks

[font color=green size=3][b]I use an insurance company from Canada. Taxes are another hassle as they want to accept USD at par or equal value. So I have an account with a canadian bank, which gets me the best exchange rate and allows automatic withdrawals for the phone and hydro as well. I looked at Farm Buerau insurance down here,as they would insure the cottage, but the rate was badly inflated by comparision.

I get my insurance from Ontario and do the same as trailer guy. I have a bank account in Dryden and pay out of that. Where is your cabin?

We are due east of your area a good bit, in the Temagami area...the fishing can be good certain times of the year, nothing like L.O.W. or those big lakes out in Western Ont. what I hear anyways !But we love it just the same, no better place for me...Where's your place? fishing? Yes, the bank account sounds like the way to go, Thanks

Our place is on Dinorwic-Wabigoon lake, 25 miles east of Dryden. The fishing's not bad and we are 1 hour from Lac Seul and pretty close to a lot of other good water. Wish I were there now!
