fishing. Our long growing season allows our Northern Pike to grow big with 20-plus pounders being caught and released. Crystal Lake, being a deep lake, is stuffed with Lake Trout of all sizes. Our lake could also be called the hottest Smallmouth Bass lake in Ontario. Not only do we have an extremely high population of Smallmouth Bass, our bass get big with many trophy size bass being caught and released. We also have easy access to 30 other lakes in the area with exceptional fishing for tasty Walleyes and other species. There are Walleyes in Crystal Lake but they are not the dominant species.
We are more than a fishing camp. There are many adventure activities and attractions for the whole family to enjoy. Close to our lodge is the outpost tourist town of Atikokan, which has many activities and attractions to explore such as museums, Walleye hatchery, golf course, hiking trails, shopping, restaurants, waterfalls, canoe builders and much more. We are also on the northern boundary of Quetico Park where you can take day-long canoe trips into remote lakes for fishing or to enjoy the wilderness setting and abundant wildlife.
Crystal Lake itself is a well-known attraction. The lake has a Blue Heron Rookery with between 30 and 50 nests. It's also a bachelor lake for Loons. 50 to 100 Loons are on the Lake at any given time. Hearing the quiet song of a loon while breathing in that clean Canadian air will give you the best sleep imaginable. As our name suggests, we have a beautiful beach for swimming, which the kids love.
Our private lakeside cottages are clean, modern and very comfortable. We also have a family campground with daily, weekly and seasonal packages.
Winter: We are now open during prime time for winter activities such as
