    Located adjacent to the Rideau Canal Lock #45 in Lower Brewers Mills, Washburn Generating Station was built in 1942 by the Gananoque Light & Power Company. The station was built on top of an old grist mill foundation that had been constructed in 1861 by James C. Foster, and was also the site of a woolen mill and store as well as a storage elevator.
    The generating station was built to house an old turbine that had been removed from the Gananoque Plant; built in 1893, it is considered by many to be one of the oldest active turbines in Canada. Washburn generating station was shut down in 1972 for economic reasons, but under a government grant was refurbished in 1984 and restarted in 1985, with an increased output of 0.2 MW.

    Nice place, the lock is closed but still beautiful views. Nice to see the old single lane wooden bridge

    It’s a beautiful time to drive north to see the fall colours! Stop and wonder the grounds of this little oasis! It has a waterfall, an old mill, swans, and of course the lock itself! Head east just down the road for fabulous apples, honey and chocolate all locally made and grown. Or head west and visit Donor studio where local artist sell their wares out of the old mill you see from the locks!

    A lovely spot for an overnight camp. Clean washrooms with hot water. Level campsites on well kept grass.
