Fishing Lodges Near Ottawa/Montreal?

[oates]

Hey all,

 

My kids have never been to Quebec, so, heading up there the week of July 20th. Planning to visit Ottawa and Montreal for a few days then spend a week fishing. Do any of you fine anglers have any recommendations for a lake with cabins for rent with a boat?

 

Over the last 3 years we've done

 

Manitoulin Island (twice)

Lake Nippising

 

Those locations are quite far from Montreal, if anyone knows a good spot within 1-3 hours of Ottawa/Montreal, we don't mind to venture out a bit into Ontario but not so far north as Nippising or Manitoulin.

 

Any suggestions, greatly appreciated.

I've come across White Lake? Anyone know much about it?

I was on that lake today... Lol

Awesome, would you recommend it? Know any people up there renting cottages/boats?

White lake is mostly a bass lake . Don't know of any guides there. Cottages to rent a plenty though.

It's a nice lake with lots if room on a busy day... We had a tough day and we still got about 15 largemouth bass... 6 pike and a walleye... And we finished around 2pm... The bass we got were smaller 1.5-2lb mostly... But fun on light gear...

 

I would recommend it for a trip...

Check out Cedar Cove resort. New owners did some good renos and spruced the place up a lot. Adam has also started a small guiding/outfitter business the last couple of years. They have all you want and are in a protected bay for those real windy days. Not too far to the deepest part of the lake. Plus a good restaurant.

Like Mike said the lake is heavy with those clones but there are big bass there along with tons of pike and a decent Walleye population. Also known for having good sized Perch but mostly targeted in the winter. It's a nice lake.

 

Cheers

Take a look at http://www.chevreuilblanc.com/#!home/c1rka - it is located just west of Val-des-Bois, Quebec

Thanks for the help guys, I think the chevruilblanc.com location is a bit out my price range but it looks awesome.

 

I've contacted 5 or 6 locations in White Lake, Cedar Cove is booked out all summer (sign of a good place). Just checking google maps, so I've moved over to Golden lake too? Anyone know it?

Spent 10 days at white lake last year ,excellent fishing for eyes and pike.The bugs were absoloutly horrendous.I assume your speaking of white lake about 30 km west of white river although now that I think of it there is another white lake out Renfrew way.
