Driving from Montreal, Quebec

[crusnprincesses]

I am leaving end of April(gasp!) with 22ft horse trailer in tow. Any tips on routes(will go to CAA as well), good, safe hotels, to stay in, and Flying J's along the way??
Any help would be appreciated! I have NEVER driven, always flown. How many hours/day for a leisurely, yet purposeful trip(no sightseeing, thanks)
Thanks
