Bear Hunting!Golden Eagle Camp has an excellent reputation for our high success rates with the Fall Black Bear Hunt. We cater to both archery hunters and rifle hunters, offering packages including comfortable accommodations and experienced guide service.
We do all the work… you have an exciting hunt and a relaxing vacation!
Our large Bear Management Area is situated in prime upland game terrain, with almost 100 bear baits in over 300 square miles of Crown Land. All our bait areas are permanent structures built of wood, and have been in place for many years. Hunters will need to have vehicles or ATVs to get to and from their stands. We will be traveling mostly on logging roads, some of which are rough and brushy.
When y
ou
arrive at Golden Eagle Camp, you will be directed to your fully equipped
cottage. All cottages are fully furnished, have full kitchens and
bathrooms, with bed linens provided. An American Meal Plan can be
arranged if you wish. Prior to the hunt, we will have an information and
licensing meeting. You will meet your guides, discuss a schedule, and be
assigned your stand. To be issued your license, be sure to have your
proof of hunting experience with you!In the Spring, our guides begin preparing for the hunt. Trails are cleared and all stands are checked and repaired as necessary. Light baiting begins 6 weeks prior to the first day of the hunt, in order to “wake up” the bait areas. Heavy daily baiting begins 2 weeks prior to your hunt. Our baits consist of butcher shop meat scraps, popcorn, and molasses. The baits are placed in big metal drums at each tree stand, and meat scraps are hung above.
Every hunter is guaranteed to be assigned to an active “fresh” stand. That means no one has hunted that stand in that year. Should the area become inactive or be visited by a sow and cubs, a new bait area will be assigned. Each day, once the hunter is settled into his stand, our guides will bait underneath. Schedules can be adjusted to suit each stand’s unique requirements. We remain flexible to ensure the best possible success, and take each hunter’s individual preferences into account.
When you shoot your Black Bear, our guides will retrieve, gut, skin, and quarter your trophy - after pictures, of course! All processing is done on a sanitary stainless steel table, and the hide and meat will be stored in our walk-in freezer. After the celebrations, you can spend the rest of your vacation fishing, since a boat is included in your hunting package.
In order to best manage the bear population, and ensure personal attention to all hunters, we limit the number of reservations each year. Plan your trip soon to reserve your spot!

Hunt
in one of the BEST wilderness areas for the BIGGEST animal in Northern
Ontario!Golden Eagle Camp is located in Wildlife Management Unit (WMU) 40, and has Moose Tag Packages available in WMU 28. These areas are hot spots for moose, divided by the magnificent Montreal River and surrounded by wilderness forests. Moose are tracked through the open clear cuts and swamps, accessible by old logging roads and trails. Bring your ATV to reach the more remote areas, and ride right from the camp. Fuel is available onsite.
We’ll
be able to assist you in finding a well-traveled moose area, since we‘ll
be out in the bush baiting for bear for a couple of months prior to
Moose Season. We cover a large area and frequently see moose and tracks
or droppings.Bow and rifle hunters have plenty of opportunity to hunt not only moose, but also wolf, small game and birds. Hunt from dawn to dusk, then return to your comfortable fully-equipped cottage and enjoy the after-hunt festivities! Whether your group is hunting with your own Tag, or purchased one of our Tag Packages, we have complete hanging and processing facilities available including a walk-in freezer.
For groups staying in the bush, take a break from the elements and get cleaned up - daily accommodations can be arranged (subject to availability), or just stop by for supplies and a shower.
Come see why our hunters have been returning year after year - some have been guests for 35 years straight!
