Default shortcut to nakina

Leaving on Friday O'Sullivan lake near Nakina>Was wondering if anybody has been on Blueberry rd lately and what the condition of the road was. Is it worth taking or would you suggest staying on the pavement and go through Gerladton?How much time does it save? Thanks and Fish On

Default short cut to nakina

There has been talk about this road early part of this year. Might try doing a search on it. We were told to stay on the main road. It does cut off about 30 to 45 min driving time from some of the posts.

Default Road to nakina

Have traveled to Nakina 16 times and have found the main route is longer but quicker than the logging roads or secondary routes. Also the drive is easier.

I'm looking into a trip to Nakina one of these days. Do you know of any places to stay in Ontario, if coming from Duluth? Thanks

We were just up there last week. I was not familiar with the "cribb rd or blueberry rd" at all besides what I had read on this site. So I convinced my dad & uncle to try it. We took the road but when it we came to the y we went left which still seemed like a shortcut. I can't speak to how the blueberry is all the way into Nakina. I thought the road was in good shape for the most part, a little washboard at times. Didn't see anyone else except for one truck parked off the side of the road fishing.

We stayed at a Lower Twin lakes cabin in Nakina for $25 Friday night and made dinner there.

UnclePaully,
Since you went left instead of right at the Y where did you come out at? If you stay to the right the total drive is 20 miles.
