Family Vacations

Bring the family! Besides the great fishing There’s lots for you and the kids to do.

Sightseeing:  Searching out and watching all the wild life in the area usually tops the list. Up the road, Red lake and Madsen are both historic gold mining areas – Red Lake is also known for its seaplane base.

Golfing: Just up the road is the Ear Falls Golf & Country Club, it is a 9 hole golf course carved from the northern boreal forest of spruce and pine. The Red Lake Area Golf & Country Club is the most northerly 18-hole golf course in Ontario.

Shopping: Although you’ll have to drive a bit there are many stores to buy souvenirs, as well as items for your stay.  There are numerous quaint little restaurants in the towns both north and south of the camp.

Festivals: The touring region slightly north of our camps is well known for its Festivals!  The annual Norseman Floatplane Festival at Red Lake in July is a celebration of Red Lake's Aviation History. 

Photography:  Bring your camera – lots of wildlife, sunsets, and seaplanes.

Hiking: Several trails lead out from Lost Bay Resort and wind their way up to the top of the rocky hills and cliffs surrounding the lake - take a compass along. There is blueberry picking in season and always-beautiful views overlooking the lakes from the top.

ATV or Jeep Trails and roads:  The autumn of the year is a great time for using the trails that abound in and around the camps.  The remoteness of the Wild Eyes Outpost is especially advantageous for ATV’s. As always, be respectful of others in camp and tread lightly as the ground is soft and plants have a short growing season to heal.

Canoeing and Kayaking:  Silently gliding through the bays along the shoreline area will reveal the abundance of wildlife at Cliff Lake. Looking down expect to see fish, turtles, beavers, muskrats. On the surface of the lake, abundant loons, some with a chick or two, ducks and gulls of many varieties. Soaring high, visible most of the time, are the American Bald Eagles that populate the area. Guests many times report seeing a moose along shore, sometimes swimming.
