Just curious, if any of you guys or gals know of a place to rent a sled for 2 or 3 days for fair price. The group I ride with usually goes to North Bay, Ontario or Kirkland Lake, Ontario area. Please post if you know of any outfits, marinas. Thanks in advance...[/b]

You can rent sleds in Kirkland Lake from Speedy Snowmobile Rental - rentsnowmobile.com.

The forest is actually not that big, you would be much better off riding the OFSC trails, if you rent from the Forest, you must stay in the Forest also, gets boring after a short while.
Plus the Forest is about 2.5 hours from NB.

I do not know of any places that rent sleds in the NB region but there are a couple in the Dorset area, Mountain Trout and Old Mill Marina rent sleds.

I know for sure u can rent a sled in the little town of Sturgeon falls "20 min west from North Bay "from the cat dealer one of my friends rented one there last January for a weekend we went all over the place it was a great time :beer_cheers: hope this helps

 

If you come up towards Sudbury, there's a place 10 minutes north of the city center that rents sleds. Not sure on their prices though. He's right off the highway as you're leaving Azilda heading to Chelmsford.

 

Thanks every one for the replies. I'm still on the fence; I would really love to pick-up a new-non current, or even something used. But, I gotta be realistic and believe that for this year, renting would make more sense. My wife is a hospital shift worker and there are lots of weekends where she has to be there, so don't wanna bother the mother-in-law all the time. I have ridden in the Haliburton Forest dozens of times, and know it off by heart, as my cottage used to be on Kenisis Lake (right next door). A couple of my buddies have rented from Speedy Rental in Kirkland Lake, and say the guy is pretty good, with reasonable prices. He will even deliver right to the hotel. I think that's where I'll probably end up. Thanks again to every one for your help....much appreciated.

the speedy rental guy is a rip off.. real dick head when it comes to small details on the sleds.. get a scratch and i hear he makes you pay for the whole hood...
