“Couldn't fish in Manitoba so we chose LOTW and Sunset Lodge. All 6 of us agreed it was a great trip. Boats were great and lodging was good (didn't spend time in the bar or restaurant but we probably should have!!) We caught plenty of walleye for dinner (we did our own cooking) and the fry house was great. Caught 17 Northerns greater than 35' (40, 40, 41, 41, 42) and lost a very large Musky. Thanks to Travis, Corey and Nolan for all the fishing tips, fish cleaning, and help with the boats. Especially Nolan who couldn't seem to do enough for us.” – Brett C
“A great little place. We didn't stay there but I rented a boat from them and Travis was extremely helpful and easy to deal with. Went there for drinks a few nights and the food is good and the drinks are even better. Great spot in the middle of nowhere.” – Tim K “We had a great time. Definitely will be back.” – Ryan H “Wonderful experience on US-Canada border” – Scot H “Amazing place. The host knows how to cater for fisherman, he was ready at the dock every morning with bait and fuel, and when we left all our fish were frozen and neatly packaged ready to go. The cabin we stayed in was clean and well furnished. I hope to visit again soon!” – Donald R “Beautiful place. Awesome people.” – Christopher T “Great food and service, clean updated cabins, awesome views.” – Chad T “The most wonderful fishing trip I’ve ever taken. Nice, clean, comfortable and charming cabins. Beautiful lodge/restaurant/bar with great food and drink. Well equipped and clean Lund fishing boats in perfect working order. (Great fishing!). Beautiful setting- gorgeous sunsets. The best thing about Sunset Lodge is the people who run it. You’ve never met happier, more gracious people who thrive on making your stay wonderful. I’ve never been moved to write a review before. The folks at Sunset Lodge make it place you want to go back to. Great value. The boat shuttle across the lake from Sportsman’s Lodge is a perfect solution to the closed Canadian border.” – Ron R “Thanks again for your hospitality.” Gary D

Can’t say enough about the service that began when we first inquired about a guided fishing trip. We received an email in less than 24 hours with possible dates and within a half hour our cabin, a guide, and shuttle service were booked. It was our first time in the Angle and the staff at Sunset were flexible and readily available. Our guide, Cory, was the best..put us on the fish." Thanks so much....Gary & Rita A and Doris “We had a great time. Thanks again” – Mike M “We all had a great time. Great accommodations, great staff and Linda was a great waitress and her friendliness made us feel right at home. Hope to come back again soon.

Tell everyone thanks again.” – Gary O “My group of 10 had to 'call an audible' and find a new location for our annual fishing trip when COVID closed the Canadian border. We chose Sunset Lodge on Oak Island and had a FANTASTIC time. Samantha, Cory, Megan and literally the entire staff were so accommodating and nice. Fishing was great. The meal plan was great. The accommodations were great. We especially enjoyed being on the west side of Oak Island for the sunsets and extended daylight. We will be back!” - Mike D “I absolutely loved my time there, I haven’t been that relaxed and had that much fun in a long time, I loved the family type super laid back culture there, all the staff were extremely nice and helpful, im already working on dates to try and come back in august!” – Josh A “Great people and great food.” – Dean E

The bombardier driver's were extra accommodating. Jake picked us up and got us set up to fish an extra half day. Corey set us up with a tip up hole to fish for Northern, and Lance Jr. kept our minnow buckets full. Of course Travis was there to check on us every day. We had fresh walleye apps the first night that were fabulous, and the wait staff in the bar treated us like Kings. Overall great experience for the 3 days we were there.
