Manitou Weather Station Fishing Lodge & Cabins
An Experience of a Lifetime
The Manitou Weather Station Fishing Lodge is located in Northwestern Ontario, Canada, about 50 miles north of International Falls, MN on the Lower Manitou Lake. The lake is famous for its fishing and its rich history of gold mining in the late 1800s.
The fishing here is fantastic, some of the best in NW Ontario. Our experienced and knowledgeable fishing guides will help you find trophy muskie, pike, bass, lake trout, and even walleye. We have wonderful modern fishing boats to rent if you are planning a DIY fishing trip, and even an on-site tackle shop. We’ve got your Canadian fishing adventure covered!
Our camp is set within rustic shorelines in a protected cove, far from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, but modern enough to make you feel right at home. We have 4 cabins within walking distance from the main lodge, each with modern amenities, power, running water, bathrooms, separate bedrooms, full kitchen and comfortable furniture.
Around the main lodge, where we serve daily meals, we have a hot tub, sauna, communal deck, swimming dock, spacious dining area, fire pit, and more. We offer an exciting and comfortable excursion perfect for families!
Special lifelong memories are created at the Manitou Weather Station, we hope to see you soon!

If you around the area, stop in and say hello.
We are deeply saddened by the loss of Dennis, a true legend of the Manitou. He knew the lake like no one else and was a key part of our camp from the very beginning. We’re incredibly grateful for everything he contributed to making this place what it is today.
Dennis brought laughter and joy wherever he went, always the jokester he was fun to be around. And when it came to fishing, there was no one better at putting you on the fish.
We feel truly blessed to have known him, and his legacy will live on in the camp and the memories he helped create.

Oh no, I’m so sorry. Our condolences to you all, and please share them with his family.
Dennis is "The Legend". He wove his knowledge of the these lakes into a great outdoor experience for all. He will be missed.
Good bye to a really specal person. I caught my first big Musky with Dennis and will never forget how he had that special ability to always put you on the fish. He also had such a fun personality. I am sure he is hunting for the giant laker with my father now. Rest in peace legend.
The fall colours haven’t even gone yet, but it’s never too soon to plan your Manitou Weather Station ice fishing trip! 🍁🧊

Thanks for all of the kind words everyone. I’d like to thank Randy Kirk for providing a special fishing experience on the Manitou. He is a true professional in every sense of the word, not only in fishing, but also in the history of the Manitou. He is an absolute pleasure to fish beside. I would also like to thank Kris and the staff of the Manitou Weather Station Fishing Lodge. They operate the best Canadian camp I’ve been to in my 30+ years fishing north of the border. Already looking forward to next season !!!
50 plus years ago when my grandparents owned their tourist camp on the Manitou, I'm sure some huge muskies were caught. Paul Hampe can you chime in?
