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!

Lots of great fish caught this past weekend at the trout derby! Couldn’t have asked for nicer weather! That’s a wrap on trout fishing for the season!

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?

🚨Leader board alert! 🚨

It’s pretty hard to beat the leader board sizes at this point, but the Muskie was beat the other day!

Glen caught a 52’’ Muskie, putting him on the leader board for 2024. 🐟🎣

Best smallmouth fishing I've ever enjoyed at the Manitou. Lake trout were good also but couldn't find any walleye.

Lotsa nice smallmouth bass 🎣👍

Very nice!
