The Story Began in 1960
In 1960, this stretch of Lake Kipawa's shoreline became home to a quaint fishing lodge founded on a simple principle: exceptional fishing, comfortable accommodations, and no unnecessary extras. This philosophy has endured for over six decades.
​
**The Early Days**
It was all about early mornings, cedar strip row boats, and long days spent chasing walleye, lake trout, and northern pike.
**Growing With the Times**
While Lake Kipawa itself remains unchanged, we have evolved. Over the years, we've made thoughtful enhancements to ensure each stay is more comfortable and reliable, including:
- Clean, well-maintained cottages
- Updated facilities-24 hour solar power
- Reliable rental boats, including authentic handcrafted cedar strip boats
- Improved dock and shoreline access.
We believe in preserving what works while improving what matters. You can still experience that classic Northern Quebec fishing trip, but with a more restful night’s sleep.
**A Place That Brings People Back**
Many first visited as children with parents and grandparents, and now they return with their own families. There’s something about Kipawa Lake and its traditions that keeps you coming back.
**Kipawa Lake Still Delivers**
Enjoy excellent walleye, deep-water lake trout, hard-fighting northern pike, and now, world-class smallmouth bass. Since 1960, the goal has remained the same: to provide a welcoming stay, great fishing, and continuous improvement without losing our unique character. Whether it’s your first visit or your tenth, we look forward to welcoming you.
Kipawa Lodge awaits!
