Main Lodge and Dining Room
Main Lodge
The main lodge is centrally located on the island and it is within easy walking distance of all our cabins. Our main lodge building also houses our kitchen and dining room. There is nothing better than to walk in on a cool day into our warm lodge and be greeted with the smell of home made cookies and fresh coffee. Guests sometimes come in early from their day's fishing and relax in our comfortable lounge, enjoy a beverage, and discuss their "secret" fishing spots.
Our main lodge has plush comfortable sofas, wooden chairs and a Northwoods style decor that invites our guests to just sit back, relax, brag a bit and reminisce about their awesome vacation. Also available in the main lodge are our Garden Island souvenirs. We have a good selection of hats, t-shirts, golf shirts and sweatshirts if you wish to take something home to remind you of your vacation.
Dining Room
The dining room has a casual country-style and seats up to 24 people at one time. We always have lots of room and can easily seat full groups together when requested. Every day we provide three meals! Breakfast, your choice of a packed lunch or shore lunch, and a filling multi-coarse dinner. Including freshly made desserts every day!
Breakfast
We serve breakfast from 7am to 8am so that guests aren't forced to miss the early morning bite with a rigid seating time. Guests can come into the dining room and enjoy breakfast which might be pancakes and sausages, scrambled eggs and ham, bacon and eggs, omelets and more. There is always a pot of fresh coffee ready and guests can also order juices, tea and other drinks.
Lunch
For guests that don't want to lose any of their fishing time we provide a box lunch consisting of a sandwich , with fresh baked cookies and fruit. Lunches will either be sitting on the kitchen counter for guests to grab after breakfast or already in your boat.
Shore Lunch
A big part of the northern experience is a shore lunch of fresh walleye. Our well-stocked shore lunch kit makes this experience much more enjoyable. Guests will be supplied new propane stoves, new bins, new dishes, cast iron fire pan, dishes, cups, cutlery, dish soap, cloth and leather fire glove. Our kitchen supplies beans, stew, veggies, cookies, cooking oil, flour, condiments and of course your walleye fillets.
Dinner
Nothing caps off a beautiful day of reeling in big fish like a delicious home cooked meal. We know you will be hungry and we will be prepared for it.
Dinner is a home cooked multi-coarse meal. One evening might be roast beef with yorkshire puddings. The next evening might be something cooked on the barbeque like steak, chicken, pork chops or high quality Canadian sausage. Due to requests we have added Italian dishes such as lasagna and garlic bread, spaghetti and hearty meat sauce or the big hit of last summer, home made manicotti.
To complement our big meals are home baked desserts, which are made fresh daily. Desserts are usually home made pies, cakes or specialty desserts.
Kitchen
Our kitchen is kept meticulously clean and our staff performs a complete cleaning after every meal. We are inspected by the Ontario Health Department regulary getting outstanding marks every time. The chef and staff work hard to insure both the taste and quality of every meal.
Dietary Needs and Food Allergies
Please let us know well in advance of your arrival if any member of your party is on a special diet (low cholesterol, salt free, no eggs or dairy, no pork, etc.) We can usually cater to your special needs but please let us check with the chef on allergies such as peanuts to insure that there will be no problems with cross contamination.
