Devil Island, sometimes mistakenly called Devil's Island, is an island located on the north arm of Lake Temagami, in Ontario, Canada. Keewaydin Canoe Camp is based on Devil Island, in the shadow of Devil Mountain and across from Granny Bay in the northern section of the lake. Keeywaydin, founded in 1902, is one of several camps on Lake Temagami whose focus is on wilderness canoe trips using traditional equipment such as cedar and canvas canoes, wannigans, and tumplines. It is 60 acres (240,000 m2) and has two halves, one is the Keewaydin camp and the other is called Ojibway, which is a resort.
