Business Description
Nestled on 6.23 acres of deeded land, with additional Crown land under contract, this highly reputable lakeside resort offers outstanding fishing, hunting, and outdoor experiences in one of Ontario’s most pristine natural environments. With 12 meticulously maintained pine cabins, a 4,500 sq. ft. main lodge, and an outfitting business, this business generates diversified revenue and has significant room for expansion.
Positioned directly on the water, the property enjoys access to over 40 lakes and includes a fleet of 90+ boats. The guest base is loyal and long-standing, drawn by world-class outdoor activities such as walleye and pike fishing, bear and moose hunting, canoeing, and camping. The resort is well-known for its warm hospitality and high guest satisfaction.
The lodge operates on both American Plan (meals included) and Housekeeping (self-catering) options, appealing to a broad clientele. Additional amenities include a lakeside dining room with expansive decking, a bait house with a living stream tank, 14 bait blocks, a fully stocked store, a heated workshop with hydraulic hoist, fish-cleaning house, boat docks, a lakeside sauna, and a gazebo with an 8-person hot tub.
There is untapped growth potential via the exclusive bear hunting rights for non-residents – a rare and valuable asset in the industry. Further development opportunities exist on the adjoining Crown land under contract, offering scope to expand accommodations, introduce glamping or wellness retreats, or enhance outfitting services.
The current owners are committed to a smooth handover and will offer hands-on support for 3–6 weeks, followed by remote assistance for an additional 3 months.
This is a rare opportunity to own a profitable, fully operational outdoor resort in one of Canada's most iconic wilderness regions. Inquire today to learn more.
