| Lomond
River Lodge
(Lomond River,
Gros Morne national park, Western
Newfoundland) Located
on the south side branch of Bonne Bay.
Following this road to the end brings you
directly to Trout River.
The Lomond River
Lodge is veritable lodging
complex. Located on the banks of the
Lomond River, it offers something for
everyone. There are fully serviced RV
sites, camping sites (both grassed and
shaded), well-appointed cabins, and a
couple of comfortable motel units.
And yet, amid all this
diversity, each section has enough
physical separations from the others so
that none impinges and each group has its
own sense of community.
The licensed lodge (main
building) serves as a sort of town hall,
where guests can relax after a day of
touring by playing pool, darts, or
drinking a cold one. It also offers live
entertainment on the week-end.
There is an on-site
convenience store to provide the odd
missing item you might need. In addition,
it offers a fast food take-out menu
(hamburgers, french fries, hot dogs etc).
Centrally located on the
premisses (equally distant for all
groups) is a very convenient laundry
facility.
Everything is clean and
everything works well.
note: The cabins are well
appointed and very comfortable.
Establishing my base camp
here for two days allowed me to
conveniently explore the Lomond River -
Trout River area as well as the north
side of Bonne Bay, including Rocky
Harbour and Norris Point.
