I have looked there but there arnt meny lodges in that area and that are resonably priced.

+1 on what Danbear said. Check out www.birchdalelodge.com 807-227-5262 owners name is Marcel. Nice cabins and equipment and fairly priced. I'm headed up for my 28th year there this year, can't wait. Terry

I know you said you want to stay away from LOW- and I won't question your reasoning. I will say that I used to say the same thing as I always envisioned a bunch of boat traffic, ruining the peace and tranquility I wanted. My wife and I now go to Witch Bay on Lake of the Woods and it is a great family place and very peaceful. She won't even consider another place.
Eagle Lake is great too.
Best of luck.

What Gord said !
Never stayed with Gord but got to meet him when my Son/Daughter had a fuel problem with my boat and was towed to his place, good guy and cold OV !

I do stay at that place those 2 Knuckleheads Danbear and NARDA stay at
All kidding aside Eagle is a great lake to fish and Greg and Cal are great guides! and have had the pleasure of staying in camp with Danbear/NARDA 2-3 time the last couple yrs. just try to plan the trip around Terry's wing night

Don't overlook Vermilion Bay Lodge. Gord and Suzanne will take awesome care of you.

I was worried about the boat traffic cabins and hazards. Ive also heard go things about walleye and even crappie for the family on LOTW.
