Yes - with full bathrooms and kitchens.

Can we bring our family pet ?

We apologize, No Pets Allowed

Do you have a beach area

for the children ?

Yes, we have a great beach area with a water slide and a swim platform in the bay.  However, our waterfront does drop off quickly, so young children must wear a life jacket.  All children must be supervised by an adult at all times.

Do you have TV's in the cottages ?

No, but you are welcome to bring your TV's, VCR's,

DVD players and electronic game consoles.

Do you sell bait and tackle ?

Yes - we sell Minnows, Worms, and have a well stocked area for artificial lures and baits

in our Camp Store.

Can I purchase my Fishing or Hunting License at your camp ?

Yes, we are a MNR Licensing Agent.

Where can I purchase groceries ?

We suggest you purchase your week's supplies in New Liskeard (1 hour away from Camp) before arrival. The city has many stores and shops to pick up all your needs.

Where's the nearest Liquor Store ?

We have 2 retail outlets to purchase liquor and beer products - both are 15 miles from Camp.

Do we need to bring or

purchase firewood ?

No ... we supply all the firewood you need - no charge.

Can we have a campfire ?

Yes - there is a designated area at our playground near the beach for campfires.

How much advance notice do you need

for us to book the Meal Plan ?

We require at least a week's notice for the

American Plan or Meal Package.

When's the best time for

blue berry picking ?

We have great Blueberry Picking in our immediate

 area !  They are best in late summer ... approximately the beginning of August until mid September.

Get them before the Bears do !

What does the Outpost cabin have ?

Our Outpost Cabin is furnished with 2 sets of single bunk beds, kitchen table and chairs, pull out sofa, wood stove, propane cook stove, cupboards, dishes, pots and pans, propane BBQ, and all the scenery and great fishing you'll need !

You'll need to bring:  lanterns, coolers for ice, your food and beverages, towels, personal items and sleeping bags.

Outpost guests are required to clean the cabin upon departure and bring all garbage back to Camp.

Are there trails for our ATV's ?

Yes !  Hundreds of miles of logging roads, hydro lines and endless trails everywhere !!

From sandy trails to mud bogs !

Do you have a public phone ?

Is there cell phone coverage in your area ?

We have a phone that our guests may use.  It is strictly collect calls or calling card only.

Recently, we have had our cell phone coverage increased.  There is limited coverage in the camp

and surrounding areas now with most cell phones.

What species of fish are in your waters ?

We have a great population of Walleye, Northern Pike, and Smallmouth Bass in our waters.  Perch can also be found in small groups.  To fish for Brook or Lake Trout requires travel to other areas.

Do you have limits or conditions within your fishing areas ?

Yes.  Our main river system has no conditions

(limits are per MNR regulations).

Some of our back lakes have limits and conditions due to our efforts in stocking.

Most lakes are Conservation limits.

When's the best time to come fishing ?

As per any body of water, Spring fishing always seems the best !  But - Spring, Summer and Fall fishing are all the same !  Conditions change and slow down.  The fish are still there - you just have to work a little harder or have extra patience to catch them !

But normally, from the 1st week in June to mid July is the most productive for the average fisherman.  August and September can have some great fishing days in certain areas and especially on back lakes !

What equipment should I bring ?

You'll need heavy equipment (rod, reel, line, tackle) if you plan to fish for large Northern's.

For Walleye and Smallmouth - medium action rod / reel and 10 - 17 lb. test line.

What can I expect the weather to be ?

Our weather in Northern Ontario can change quickly as compared to anywhere else.  We have hot summers and we have warm summers - it depends a lot on our southern weather in the lower USA.

Do bring summer clothing and heavy clothing also ... in case of a weather change.

No Need.  We have large, wooden constructed stationary tree stands at each bait location.  Very safe and roomy - so if you're a "big guy" - no need to worry.

What's the best week to hunt moose ?

As in any hunting situation, the first couple days of the season opening are normally the best.  Then - all the traffic and activities in the bush drive the Moose to the depths of the unreachable areas !  After the activities slow down - usually the 3rd week of the hunt - the Moose will go back to normal habitant areas.

Do you sell Moose Hunting packages

with a adult tag included ?

Yes, we have 2 Archery Bull Packages per season and 2 Bull Rifle Packages per season.

What's your success rate ?

Moose Hunting is a much different story

than Bear Hunting !

Hunters have to work to be successful.

There are many areas to scout and hunt.

Success rates normally are 50%.

Success totally depends on the "work" that the

hunters do - scouting, etc.
