We come to this lodge at least four times a summer. Kelly is truly exceptional and makes these stays unforgettable. This year, we stayed in his brand new cabins, it was incredible. 100% recommend. I am thrilled with his new buildings and development. Hard to do better.

We had a wonderful stay, with gorgeous fine sand beaches. The people welcoming us on the dock were very friendly and always ready to help us. They even taught us a few tricks for filleting fish. Our host, Branden, was always around the cabins, making his rounds with his adorable dog Misty. The garage was cleaned and emptied every day. We truly loved our stay and we would be delighted to come back very soon. Thank you, Kelly and Sara, for convincing us, thanks to your Christmas cards, to make this trip. We are so glad we went.

This is our second year at Besnard Lake Lodge. It's our favourite vacation of the year. Sarah, Kelly, their family and their staff are wonderful. They give a warm welcome to families as well as fishing enthusiasts. The kids loved playing soccer on the grass in the evening while the parents relaxed by the fire. When we weren't fishing, we enjoyed paddleboarding, kayaking and swimming in the clear lake. The cabins are simple but well equipped. They are clean and the beds are very comfortable with very nice duvets. The fishing is excellent and the guides are knowledgeable and patient. At Besnard Lake Lodge, you feel like family. We will be back next year. We highly recommend this place!

Kelly, the owner, without a doubt one of the friendliest people you could meet, and his team, Robin our guide, Teddy and Jared, the dock hands, were all excellent! The walleye fishing was excellent, but the pike fishing was a bit less successful, although still very good. I would love to come back. Thanks again, Kelly.
