lhousesoccer Posted January 21, 2009 Report Share Posted January 21, 2009 (edited) Hi there ... We've been pretty much benched for the last 2.5 years, having an infant son to raise (), and so we haven't been able to travel with the boat to fish at all. This coming summer however, with our son at the age of 3, my wife and I want to finally plan a week's vacation and fishing trip with the boat and our son. I have a few criteria in choosing a place, in order of most important to least : Decent, clean lodging. A nice waterfront, preferrably with a sandy beach/shoreline for my wife to lay out in the sun and my son to play in the sand and swim, while I !!! Fish to catch ! Preferred species, in no order, SMB, LMB, walleye & muskie. A boat launch and/or docking facilities for my 18' Ranger. Not a terribly far drive from Vermont. I'm thinking anywhere in eastern Ontario and as far west as maybe the Haliburtons or the Kawarthas. The St. Lawrence River, Thousand Islands, Ottawa River, Rideau system and anywhere inbetween would be preferred. Price - reasonable, but we don't want to be in a dive. We want a nice, well-kept, clean place, but one that won't kill our wallet. Alternatively, we'd also be up for renting a private cottage if anyone knows of one that fits the bill ! Any recommendations or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks for your time, and tight lines ...

cranks bait Posted January 24, 2009 Report Share Posted January 24, 2009 If you are looking for something on the Larry. Check this place out. http://www.gananoque.com/caigers/ Quiet spot. Awsome veiw. good Docking. Small beach. They have a ramp to put your boat in right there. Oh and it's in that area of the MacNair Muskie. There's also a tackle/hunting shop just up the road incase you forget something. There is a bike path as well that goes along the river for a nice evening walk or ride. Feel free to pm me if you have questions. No I am not affiliated with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Bob Posted January 24, 2009 Report Share Posted January 24, 2009 (edited) I already PM you with one lake but I didn't see you were interested in the St Lawrence so if you can find a phone number of Green Acres Motel & Cottages on the NY side it is PERFECT for a family vacation with a provided dock on a nice and quiet bay PLUS a pool. Also have you considered Oneida Lake in NYS. It's really a walleye lake but I'm sure it holds Smallmouth and Largemouth bass. Here are a couple of websites in you are interested in fishing NYS for the above mentioned areas. http://realtravel.com/h-198554-clayton_hot..._motel_cottages http://www.fishoneida.com/ I FOUND the Green Acre Website. see below http://www.swanbaybeachclub.net/accommodations.htm Edited January 24, 2009 by Billy Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
