Fishing Gals (and guys), Fireside Lodge was the perfect lodge for us. From our first evening orientation to the final fish caught, the fishing (!), hospitality and lodge setting... read more more than exceeded our Canadian adventure expectations. Though all of us were new to pike-on-the-fly, we hunted, hooked, fought and netted, pike after toothy pike, giant smallies, and even a walleye and muskie that week. After daily exploring and catching, tall tales were traded over home-cooked meals served with from-scratch baked goods and desserts. Delicious. Then conversations continued as we migrated to the lodge porch for spectacular sunsets as loons called out across glassy waters. Finally, we retired to our spacious and very comfortable cabins for the best night of sleep ever. Want to reserve your own lake for a portage? No problem! Want a steaming thermos of coffee for your boat today? No problem! Want to enjoy part of tonight’s prime rib for your boat sandwich tomorrow? No problem! It’s no wonder why every guest we met was on a return trip to Fireside Lodge. We found the fishing, hospitality, and accommodations to be ideal, and cannot wait to return ourselves. Thank you to owners and hosts extraordinaire, Alan & Audrey…this group of Fishing Gals loved every unforgettable minute!
