WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Pat, You have the best service we have seen in Canadian fishing lodges in over 30 trips. I can see now that the quality of the people running the show there is the reason. You, Alex, and Zach make the difference. Nothing but the very best to you. See you next year!

John & Lynda Yancey

This has by far been the best trip that I have been on in 20 years. The fishing was excellent, the Roger Lake cabin was better than anything we have stayed in the past, the lake was exceptional with the waterfalls and rock cliffs and the wildlife was abundant.

William Bloodworth, Decatur, GA

Words alone do not do justice to the experience and memories we have of our week in the cabin at Roger Lake. We would like to express our gratitude, for not only a tremendous vacation, but also for your outstanding service while we enjoyed the best fishing of our lives. I have been in sales and service of one kind or another for nearly 33 years and know what it takes to provide quality service to customers. Alex, you did more than meet my expectations, you greatly exceeded them. Thank You!!

Dave Page, McFarland, WI

Just thought I’d drop you guys a line and tell you how much I am looking forward to getting back to your place. After hunting and fishing all over, I found Big North Lodge felt like home. Having great fishing and hunting like you have is not unique in NW Ontario . What is unique, and what is bringing me back next summer for fishing and fall deer hunting is your hospitality ! You made us all feel important and part of your family, not just another tourist. Shoot straight and set the hook.

Craig Clark, Clam Lake, Wisconsin

We want to thank you for another wonderful week at Roger Lake. Once again, we had tremendous fishing for Smallmouth & Walleye. Roger has become our special retreat over the last few years. We have never been disappointed with the fishing and the remote cabin location. What makes us really appreciate and have confidence to return to your place is the way Alex flies in with fresh water, bait and to make sure we are worry-free for our stay. Coming to Roger lake for the week is just like trespassing in God’s country. Thanks again.
