Loon Dollar Monument
Really neat monument to visit! It’s amazing that the Loonie, used ALL over our country in every corner from east to west, was invented in this place. Super cool. Really easy access for anyone driving! Easy parking.Also, for bonus hiking, there’s a beautiful marsh boardwalk just behind it with a pleasant trail and some nature views!

I should have read the review before heading to this place. I thought it was just the loon dollar monument, ant that was it. I found out there was a nice boardwalk. There is a community center next to it. I definitely love to go again

Nobody else there when we got there! A neat little spot to stop at however it's a bit out of the way. There's a marsh hiking trail on the property (we didn't hike it however because of the rain). The outdoor bathrooms were really gross.

fun little stop, a little over hyped as it could probably be bigger, but its right along the trans canada highway so not out of the way. and has interesting educational panels to read.

Not as big as the big Nickle but still a fun visit. Also has bathrooms on site which is a plus for a quick rest stop.

This is a great place for a stopover during your road trip. The loonie monument is gigantic and fun to take perspective photos. There are enough car parking spaces and there is also a clean public restroom near by. we also found there was a marshland boardwalk nearby but we didn’t try it as we were already hungover from our trip. There are a couple of small restaurants and shops nearby if you want check out. Definite must visit place if you are going to drive by.

My wife has a fascination for big oversized coins, so this is a good addition to the nickel and twoonie.Unfortunately the attraction was 20 km out of our way and roped off for some reason?! Public facilities closed too.Cool fact: this spot was the location set for A&W's coffee advertisement... Guess how much their coffee costs? Hint, look in the background.

Nice monument of the loonie in a small park with a conservation area and wetlands near by. The wetland boardwalk area was closed when we went so I can't comment on that portion of the park. A lot of detail in the coin itself and I found it very impressive that it was identical to the real thing. If you can, come give it a glimpse. I have found the Toonie monument and the Big Nickel monument as well on our road trippin journey. Enjoy it, I did...

When is a Loonie smaller than a nickel? Only here. There is also a nice boardwalk, through a wetland or something, but we couldn't get past the smell of the washrooms on site. Unmaintained and awful, couldn't get within 20 feet without gagging and almost vomiting... Would be a nice rest stop for a walk and stretch otherwise. Bring a mask or something.
