Description
We are a fishing lodge located in Wood Buffalo, Northern Alberta, surrounded by wilderness. It is a great lake for fishing Northern pike and Walleye, as well as other types of fish. At the lodge we can host around 80 guests at a time, in individual cabins, 1 & 2 bedroom suites, full service rooms in the main lodge building. We also have a Wilderness camp with 5 wall tent cabins. Our lodge is the perfect place for anyone who loves lake fishing, or just want to get out in nature - far away from city life.
