Looking for a safe friendly environment with great Canadian fishing for your next family vacation? What about a great hunting trip for moose, bear, deer or duck.

Look no further... Our location on Sabaskong Bay on Lake of the Woods, Canada will provide it all.

Sabaskong Bay Lodge is situated in the heart of Sabaskong Bay on a private 10 acre island, Cedar Island on Lake of the Woods. Sabaskong Bay Lodge is one of the oldest and finest established lodges on Lake of the Woods. Ernest Calvert, the original owner, having his pick of prime spots on the lake, chose Cedar Island in 1922 for its location, access to great fishing in sheltered bays and breathtaking beauty. The same applies today.

Born and raised on Lake of the Woods, we began our search for a prime vacation destination. After a long search for resorts and islands on Lake of the Woods, we came upon Sabaskong Bay Lodge. In September of 2000 we purchased the lodge and we invite you to join us for a truly memorable Island vacation experience.
