Manitoulin is the 31st largest island in Canada by square mileage, but seems larger because it's spread and stretched out for miles. Black Rock Resort is located on the east side of the island on Lake Huron. The island only has a population of 13,255, which amasses to less than 12 people per square mile. Over 40 percent of the population are First Nations Native Canadians--witnessing a summer pow-wow is a must!
