Kilrush is an unincorporated place and former railway point in geographic Boulter Township in the Unorganized South Part of Nipissing District in northeastern Ontario, Canada.[1] Kilrush is located northwest of the northwest side of Algonquin Provincial Park on Kilrush Lake in the Amable du Fond River drainage basin.

It lies on the now-abandoned Canadian National Railway Alderdale Subdivision, a section of track that was originally constructed as the Canadian Northern Railway main line, between Fossmill to the west and Coristine to the east.
