If you're looking for an outstanding vacation spot for the serious fisherman or a family get away you should consider Vermillion Bay Lodge on Eagle Lake, Ontario Canada. We have stayed at many lake resorts over the years, but none offer the simple pleasures of this one. The lake is large enough and holds enough fish for the most adventuresome fisherman and yet easy for local family fishing for young children. Bring your own boat or use one of the aluminum boats (20 hp) at the lodge. Boat dockage is well protected from the wind and allows easy access to the water. What sets this lodge apart from most others is it is always clean, well kept with lots to do including paddle boats canoes, bon fires in the evenings and a just plain friendly atmosphere.

We have been going to Eagle Lake and Vermilion Bay Lodge for some 13 years now and is by far one of the best housekeeping camps I have stayed at. Fish all day and go out after dinner for a couple of hours wake up next day and the boat is cleaned gassed and ready to rock. Fishing is great and gets better every year. As for the cabins they can't be beat very clean and roomy. The boats are kept very clean and up to date with new motors. The owners Gord and Susanne Bastable are some of the nicest people you will meet. The Sunday night fish fry and get together is another plus as you will get a chance to relax and unwind and meet others in camp. So if your looking for a camp about 3 hours from the border of International Falls, MN with some really good fishing I would highly recommend Vermilion Bay Lodge!!!!

My favourite outdoor activity is fishing and I've been at it for over 50 years. I've been fortunate to fish in many wonderful places outside of my home state, Wisconsin. My absolute, favourite place to go is Vermilion Bay Lodge (VBL) in northwest Ontario, Canada. I love it here for several reasons. First off, the hospitality and customer service I've received from the lodge owners are consistently outstanding. Secondly, the fishing opportunities on Eagle Lake and nearby portage lakes are quite good. I've caught hordes of fish while a guest at VBL, including walleye, northern, smallmouth bass, lake trout, whitefish plus a few nice muskies. Lastly, the price for a stay at VBL is very reasonable for what I receive in return. The combination of hospitality, fishing opportunities and price is what brings me back to VBL every year. I've introduced several family members and friends to this lodge and they were very pleased as well...
