Kipawa Lodge is a private-island outfitter on Lake Kipawa, in the Témiscamingue, reachable only by boat from the village of Kipawa. Established in 1960 and run since 1988 by Barb and Wayne Moreau, it is first and foremost a fishing destination: Lake Kipawa is known for its walleye, northern pike, lake trout and smallmouth bass, with prime fishing spots minutes from the dock. The waterfront cabins are fully equipped and off-grid: 24-hour solar power, full kitchen (4-burner stove with oven, full-size electric fridge), hot shower, wood stove with unlimited firewood, outdoor BBQ and free WiFi. Three named cabins — Lakehouse
