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!

I hate to think that I am getting to the age my time on the lake is limited. But the good news for me is that my sons and grandsons and their friends will continue the adventures I started in 1977z

Looks like so much fun!

Hi Kris looks like it was fun Did Bobby join you too ?

What a great weekend!!

Thanks to everyone who came out.

Think we had close to 85 people ride up for the day. Plus a few groups who stayed over night.

We are planning on doing lunch again feb 25th.

We will have fuel available this weekend, family day weekend. No lunch though.

Was there a young boy there with his pet reindeer too?

I love Ice Harvest cannot wait until my cousins do it! 🙂

A lot of work ..well done….miss shoving and stacking the ice

I love this tradition. Keeps the place cool and ready to rock all year. See what I did there?

Looks great 👍

That’s cool!

Why do you do this?

So cool😎

I would suggest having it back to back or on the 3rd weekend so you can hit the other 7/7 shift workers that have to work on the two weekends you picked. Might drum up more business : )

What a group. When did your group put up the ice at the main camp in the Ice House?

Sounds great. What is the slush like on the lake compared to last year? Thanks

We will be there on saturday. Weather looks perfect

I’ll be there

Brian and I would love to attend but no snow machine to get there.

I love your menu 😋

Hopefully my Doo is out of the shop by the next get together

Was such a good day last time I am coming up again tomorrow with a different group.

Looks awesome!Maybe next year Lincoln will convince me to make the trip! Looking forward to May!

Working..can't go

Beautiful picture of Barkerbay

Chantal you and Jamie should.

15 more years and I’ll be that guy 🤞

Would you take a 73 year old Man with cancer that is not steady on his feet, but likes people and fishing. Would only have to come out for chemo once a month: did I mention that I have a good attitude. LOL
