DAFOE LAKE CABIN

Situated about 70 air miles south east of Thompson is in the heart of Mystery Country, A thirty five minute float plane ride is all that separates you from a lake that is teeming with fish! Covering over thirteen miles in length and up to three and a half wide with depths in the thirty foot plus range. The main lake has a river that connects to another lake that is nine miles in length as well as two other a joining lakes above and below Dafoe lake.

This offers the diehard fisherman the opportunity to explore to his or her content. The many reefs and islands that dot the landscape offer numerous opportunities to hook onto a Monster Northern or feisty Walleye! Or maybe a perch or whitefish dinner is at hand. Try fly fishing for a northern in one of the many bays that are part of the endless shoreline.

The cabin is spacious and clean. The modern conviences of hot and cold running water as well as a hot shower are a welcome relief after a hard day on the water. Propane lights, fridge, stove and satellite phone, along with kitchen ware compliment the rest of the amenities. With the addition of a 12 by 28 foot deck across the front of the cabin and the addition of a gas grill as well as an extra fridge for their adult refreshments, most of our guests tell us they think they Died and went to Heaven!

Dafoe cabin sits on an island about half way up or down the lake. This gives the larger groups of eight or ten the opportunity to split up and then meet back at camp for their mid day lunch. The days in June/July are the longest, with daylight lasting up to 20 hours.

2003 saw the addition of new Yamaha 15 HP. Four stroke motors to compliment the 16 foot Lund boats that were added in 2002. Planned for 2004 is the completion of swivel seats and a fish cleaning shed with a fresh water hand pump for making shore lunch a breeze.
