The outfitter
Viking Island Lodge is a fly-in outfitter located on Douglas Lake in the heart of Woodland Caribou Provincial Park, west of Red Lake, Ontario. Hosting a maximum of 30 guests per week, the lodge is family-run by the Boehms (James, Teresa, Jack, and Carson). The aquatic territory includes Douglas Lake as well as a network of nine portage-accessible lakes, including Onnie, Spider, Peterson, Page, Frank's, Hatchet, Caribou, Embryo, Anchor, and Foley lakes. Motor-equipped boats are stationed at each. Anglers primarily target walleye, northern pike, yellow perch, and lake trout. Canoe circuits are also a popular way to explore the area.

Accommodation consists of four fully equipped cabins with full kitchens and propane BBQs, complemented by two rustic cabins to accommodate larger groups. Bedding, towels, pillows, and basic condiments (salt, sugar, peanut butter) are provided. Guests can bring their own food or submit a grocery order in advance to be delivered to the base before their flight. The camp is powered 24/7 by a 120/240-volt solar energy system combined with propane, eliminating the need for generators. Facilities include a main lodge with a large deck, a fish cleaning house (with fish cleaning services included or self-service), internet access, cellular service, conservation fishing license issuance, and beverage sales. On-site staff handle maintenance and provide expert advice on the best fishing spots.
