Across five clustered lakes you fish in summer for walleye, pike, lake trout, bass, sturgeon and whitefish, and in winter an ice-fishing village (open December 20 to March 31) where you take pike, cisco, whitefish, walleye, burbot and yellow perch from lit cabins.

Boats, motors and pontoons are available to rent, gas included, with a fish-cleaning room at the dock. Hiking, birdwatching and wild-mushroom foraging round out the stay.
