I regularly travel from Ottawa to Newmarket... My hope is that I'd be able to do the trip in a model S in a single charge, in the summer at least. Does that seem likely?
I would say yes. I have a (roughly) 80 mile round-trip commute between the GTA and the Waterloo Region. I easily get below 300 Wh/mi and my overall average for June to-date is just over 300 Wh/mi. That means I am realizing (or even bettering) the car's Rated Range. I took the screenshot below this morning after arriving at work. I usually get a bit better efficiency on the way home, and my daily number is usually around 270 Wh/mi... and that's driving "normally" with a/c on and so forth.
Your 383 km / 238 mi trip should be well within the cars 265 mile Rated Range. I've not done that trip, so the only uncertainty in my mind would be elevation changes and driving style related to the types of roads you're on.
