Bob's Lake is a pretty lake located in the central part of Ontario, Canada. It's found in an area called the Parry Sound District, specifically in Patterson Township. This lake is part of the huge Great Lakes Basin, which means its water eventually flows into the Great Lakes.

The closest town to Bob's Lake is Restoule, about 6 kilometers (or 3.7 miles) away to the east. It sits within a beautiful region known as the Almaguin Highlands.

Where Does the Water Go?

The water from Bob's Lake flows out from its northern end. It goes into a small, unnamed creek that leads to Kidd Lake. From there, the water travels through Rainy Creek, then into the Memesagamesing River. Finally, it reaches the French River, which carries it all the way to Georgian Bay. Georgian Bay is a large part of Lake Huron, one of the amazing Great Lakes!
