Pine Cliff Lodge

Why You'll Love It

Pine Cliff Lodge is the only lodge on 10,000-acre Big Sandy Lake—no other lodges, no commercial access, just you, the fish, and the peaceful Canadian wilderness. With a fly-in feel and easy drive-to access, we offer exceptional trophy fishing for northern pike, smallmouth bass, and lake trout in a truly remote setting.

Every package includes fully equipped 20' boats with 50HP motors, sonar at both the console and bow, and trolling motors with spot-lock. Whether you're casting weed beds for pike or jigging deep for lake trout, you'll have the tools to fish like a pro.

Looking for more? We also offer guided excursions to nearby lakes for anglers hoping to target walleye or crappie. With friendly service, comfortable lakeside cabins, and wilderness at your doorstep, it’s no wonder so many guests return to Pine Cliff Lodge year after year.
