Experience the best fishing resort in Canada at

Kettle Falls Lodge

We welcome guests to visit Kettle Falls Lodge, our very renowned lodge on the English River. We have been offering guests this destination since the early 1960s and continue to spoil fishermen with the legendary walleye, northern pike and smallmouth bass fishing. The fishing has had many groups return generation after generation as the fishing is incomparable to other waters. We invite groups that are amateur or professional as we have the perfect fishing available for everyone. Please come and test our waters for the quality and quantity of our fishing as it’s really like no other! We are in the heart of Halley Country and the only way in and out of the lodge is either by plane or boat. We offer our guests many options to travel into Kettle Falls choosing to either fly from Fort Frances, Winnipeg, or Kenora; shuttle from Fort Frances or Winnipeg and fly in from Kenora; or boat in from our Caribou Falls Landing.

History at Kettle

Halley’s Camps Kettle Falls originally started as a hunting camp in the late 1950s and then later turned into a fishing camp on barges with one kitchen and the other equipped with guest rooms—lots has changed over the years. The main lodge was built with local timber on our sawmill in the early 1980s. The lodge houses a large guest dining room, guest registration and our souvenir shop. With many cabins being built throughout the 1980s and really establishing Kettle Falls roots, it’s one place that we are very proud of.  In 1999, we extended the lodge and made a large conference room for our guests which offers free wifi, card tables, satellite tv, an exceptionally large lakeside deck and more.

The Lodge

Stepping into Kettle Falls Lodge is an amazing sight with the high featured ceilings, nature’s inspiration and historical values and features throughout the lodge with lots of historical charm. The warm inviting atmosphere encompasses everyone as they enter the lodge. The smell of breads, cookies, pies and more are the tasty aromas in the air.

Our huge stone fireplace in the center of the lodge is heartwarming on cool evenings and displays on the mantle some of our current big fish pictures.

We love to go the extra mile and looking at our handmade whittled lock on our front doors will bring you back to a part of our history decades ago. Our dining room is the showcase of the lodge and you can find more about our dining here. Guests at Kettle Falls will eat breakfasts and suppers in the lodge while lunches are served on the lake with either our traditional shore lunch of fresh caught fish or with a requested packed lunch.

While guests can enjoy a drink from our licensed stocked bar, they can take in the ambiance of the welcoming hospitable attitude at Kettle Falls that makes everyone feel as if they are in their home away from home. Guests can always contact us prior to their trip to arrange their favorite drinks to be at the lodge for their arrival. Our souvenir shop in the lodge has quality selected clothing, hats, rain gear, snacks and many toiletries options for if one would require.

Looking over the water from the deck on the lodge is an amazing view of the waters of the English River. Relax, enjoy the moments that we have to offer of the beautiful Canadian scenery, listen to the loon calls and the gentle splash of the waves on the shore.

We welcome fishermen that are family, friends, colleagues, college roommates, etc. to come and experience our great hospitality, comfy accommodations, delicious food, an atmosphere filled with awesomeness and fishing that is out of this world and will have you hooked for life!

Accommodations

We have a total of 9 suites and cabins throughout the premises at Kettle Falls Lodge all accessible by our board walks. You won’t hear the hustle and bustle of any city with cars honking or have the lights of the city in your windows to keep you from sleeping! The extra plush beds will have you feel like you are at a fishing oasis. Our daily maid service will freshen your towels daily and any extras that might be required. Each cabin has its own coffee maker for the early risers and fridges to keep your drinks cold. We also have satellite internet available in each of the cabins.

With 2 beds with new bedding and fluffy duvets, fishermen will curl up and sleep all night in the coziness of our beds. Each suite has its own bathroom with a tub/shower surround.

Coffee, tea, and a wide range of juices are ready for the early birds at 6:00 a.m!

Shore lunch is at the sun’s peak of the day

Our lunches are served at the water’s edge at our shore lunch sites. Enjoy your personally fresh caught walleye/pickerel served with the perfect pairings—fried potatoes, baked beans, extras for making fish sandwiches, and don’t forget the desserts! Shore lunches are such a memorable part of many fishermen’s fishing trips with us—watch your guides fillet the fish, build a campfire and cook over the open flames—this is the way it’s been done at Halley’s Camps for 75 years—absolutely perfected!

Unwind at supper

After a day on the water, enjoy a drink from our licensed bar or try out our suggested paired wine of the evening to go with the dinner being served that night. Our dinners are absolutely astonishing with quality cut proteins, varieties of salads, vegetables and root veggies with herbs, fresh breads and delightful pies, cakes, or fruit crisps to finish off your nightly dining experience.

Please advise us before your arrival for allergies and dietary restrictions. We also offer a children’s menu.

Fishing
We are on the very western section of the English River, just east of Umfreville Lake by 15 miles. We have 100’s of miles of shoreline to work with as we are the only outfitter for miles in any direction. The varied underwater structure along with the moving stained cool river water provides the ultimate walleye, northern pike and smallmouth bass fishing. The river has 3 major tributaries in the heart of Halley country: The Sturgeon River, Werner River and the Winding River.

Boats

Yes, we do have lots of water to fish but another important feature is comfort while fishing and that is what we’ve got here-18’ Lund Alaskans with 50 hp 4 stroke Mercury motors on them. These boats have lots of legroom, padded swivel seats, splash guards for back trolling, depth finders, extra storage compartments and all the boating safety gear. The 4 stroke motors are absolutely a necessity as they are so quiet for you to be able to enjoy the boat conversations with everyone. We also provide all the water and soda for the boat as well as the minnows and ice.

Guides

Guides at Kettle Falls are necessary to be able to fish around this section of the lakes and river. Our guides are very much experienced and most have been with us for years. We do offer an array of different packages as if you have 4 people you can choose to have 1 or two guides for your party and if you have 6, you can choose to have 1-3 guides-completely your preference. Guides work for us seasonally in the summer months and know our style of fishing and the river like the back of their hand and have a lot of experience assisting our guests to having a great fishing trip. Guides at lunch time will also prepare and cook your shore lunch.

Tackle

Fishing gear and tackle available at our pro tackle shop.An exterior photo of our large pro-tackle shop at Kettle Falls fishing resort.
Don’t know what to pack for tackle? Don’t worry about it as we have our pro-tackle shop right next to the boat dock. If needed, we or your guide can assist you in selecting tackle. All of our tackle is guide tested and approved. We have a variety of jigs, spoons, Mepps, Rapalas, line, rain suits, sunglasses, suntan lotion and much more. Looking to rent a rod so you don’t have to haul it on the international flights? We’ve got you covered offering rod and reel rentals. Each fishing rod rental comes with two rods-1 for walleye and smallmouth bass fishing and the other setup is complete for trolling/casting for northern pike/trout/musky.

Daily Fly-Outs

Looking to be adventurous? We have our daily fly-outs as an extra option for fishermen to add a little spark to their fishing trip. Tell us what type of fish you’d like to sought after whether its walleye, smallmouth bass, northern pike, trout or musky (which is available after the middle of June); and we will arrange for your group and your guide/s to go to your own lake where we have boats and motors set up for you all to use for the day. We will load you up into one of our float planes after breakfast, bring your group to the lake, fish for the day, the guide will make you shore lunch or have a packed lunch, fish the afternoon and the plane will pick you up and take you back to the lodge for 5:00 p.m.

Activities
At Kettle, the fishing is so amazing that we challenge our guests to see if they catch more fish out of a boat during the day or off the dock in the evening. We also have kayaks, horseshoe, corn hole, a fire pit, and walking trails.

For those who are interested in fishing only partial days and want to experience our neck of the woods, we have our new adventure package. We invite guests to come and fish half days with us and explore our nature and find an adventure in the afternoon. This is perfect for families to get the new young fishermen into fishing and a great family vacation to have everyone having fun. Guests on this package would fish the morning, catch their fresh fish for shore lunch, and after shore lunch be able to go with your guide to do some of the following: stand up paddle board or kayak to an island for an afternoon swim, hike to another lake and enjoy refreshments next to the falls, count eagle nests on a boat ride and see land marks and take in some local history, a pontoon ride to a sandy beach and play in the water with tubes and beach balls.

Rates

Enjoy full fishing days (arrival day not counted as a fishing day) with all meals, 18’ Lund boats with new 50hp motors, unlimited gas, minnows, and ice, complimentary rods and reels, and personalized boat beverages—all packages are based on double occupancy.
