Viking Island Lodge
Why You'll Love It
At Viking Island, you'll discover a hidden gem: a cozy fly-in fishing lodge nestled in the heart of the breathtaking Woodland Caribou Wilderness Park. A short floatplane ride from Red Lake brings you to the tranquil shores of Douglas Lake, surrounded by pristine, remote beauty. Renowned for walleye, northern pike, perch, and lake trout fishing, the area also offers incredible wildlife viewing opportunities. With nine interconnected portage-access lakes featuring deep waters, scenic bays, and manageable sizes, it's the ideal setting for a relaxed and rewarding fishing adventure. Our on-site staff is always ready with expert fishing advice and maintenance support.
At Viking Island, you'll step into an atmosphere that feels like a journey back in time. With a maximum of just 30 guests per week, our camp fosters a close-knit and welcoming environment, where many return year after year. Choose from four fully equipped cabins featuring complete kitchens, propane BBQs, and all lines, blankets and towels provided. For larger groups, we offer two rustic cabins with plenty of space to spread out.
To make your stay seamless, we provide pantry staples like salt, sugar, and peanut butter. Bring your own meat, dairy, and produce or send us a list, and we'll have fresh food waiting at our base for you to fly out with. A fish cleaning building is available for preparing your catch, or let us handle it for you. Conservation fishing licenses are provided, and beverages are sold on-site for your convenience.
Modern amenities blend with the rustic charm - our island is powered by a solar system delivering 24/7 green energy, and Starlink WiFi ensures reliable connectivity and WiFi calling. This mix of timeless tranquillity and thoughtful services creates the perfect setting for your fishing adventure.
