Question for our Northern Brethren

[Nanook]

Has anyone heard of a Fishing/Hunting Lodge called;

 

Halfway Haven.

 

Its up near Thunder bay/ Wawa area. Its for sale and a Friend is thinking about it.

 

If you do know of it. any comments would be appreciated.

Its on the snowmobile trail halfway between the Sault and Wawa. Actually it is halfway from Searchmont and Wawa

About 90 miles each way.

Its a pretty isolated place.

To own and operate something like that, you have to really like the wilderness, and working your tail off.

Rewarding in its own right,. But not for everybody.

You can sort of drive there in the summer, but not with a car.

It is a gas and lunch stop on the trail catering to ATV's and snowmobiles. Also a B&B type place with hot tub and lounge.

I was there for the first time last winter, but lots of friends go that way regularly. The fishing is good, but as with anything, you gotta have time for it.

If you look hard enough, places for sale just like that are a dime a dozen. They cater to Americans mostly. And Americans just aren't coming up here like they used to. There are several reasons for that. Their economy is poor (just like ours), their dollar is about 30% lower than it was a few years ago compared to ours, and the price of gas is outrageous. If your friend is willing to bet that these things are going to turn around in the near future, then he might have a steal on his hands. Roll the dice and see what happens I guess. Nobody knows the answer.

Thanks for the replies, Gentlemen. I'll pass them on to my friend for them to think about.

Who know's, there may be a Guiding job for someone next year!
