Add me to those that have rented from Floating Lodges in Sioux Narrows. My dad and I have been going most years since 1982 (when I was 11). Our most recent trip was in 2010 and it ran right around $6000 for the week for everyone. That's roughly how much it has been that last several years renting a 54-foot houseboat. That cost is for everything but gas for the drive up: Houseboat, food, fuel for both the houseboat and small boats, alcohol, bait, licenses etc. We fix fish about every other night to keep some of the food cost down, but other than that, we don't skimp on anything. We also bring our own small boats, so we don't rent any from Jim.
So just divide that cost by the number of people you have going (we usually have between 7-11 guys go). I did see that the houseboat rental went up $100 from two years ago (we have this year's trip scheduled for Memorial Day week).
