Created in 1939, La Vérendrye Wildlife Reserve offers a vast wilderness expanse of prime black bear habitat. For many years, moose were hunted in the reserve on a random draw-basis, but no bears. Several years ago, the government and local hunting clubs asked us to expand onto the reserve. They chose us on the basis of our good reputation, and because we specialize in bear hunting. With our extensive bear baiting experience, we know what bears like best in the area. Today, our guests enjoy access to bait sites located in an exclusive area inside the reserve as well as a brand new area bordering the reserve that doubles the size of our exclusive hunting zone. And because neither the reserve nor the new area has ever hunted by an outfitter specialized in bears in the past, there are plenty of bears around—some of them of impressive size.
Black Bear Lodge also offers great pike, walleye, and trout fishing. Many sportsmen fish in the morning and hunt in the evening. If you bag your bear early in the week, you can spend the rest of your stay enjoying the excellent fishing. We provide 16 feet aluminum boats equipped with 15 hp motors, gas and oil included. I will personally skin the bears, clean your catch, and freeze your meat and fish.
Property amenities:
Our beautiful, fully equipped lodge stands on the shores of the big Baskatong Reservoir (1,800 miles of shoreline). Hunters’ rooms are on the first floor, with living and dining areas upstairs. We pride ourselves on our friendly, family-like atmosphere and our comfortable rooms, which are serviced daily.
When you’re not in the woods or on the water, you can enjoy a game of pool or ping-pong in the spacious living room. You’ll also enjoy three delicious homemade meals served daily in the dining room, which offers spectacular view of the Baskatong Reservoir just a few yards away. A bar is also at your disposal.
Nearby attractions and activities:
If bow hunting is your preference, we offer numerous tree stands designed especially for you. The tree stands are 12 to 15 feet off the ground and offer shots of 20 yards or less. Bow hunters have bagged a number of really big bears, many of which have made it into the record books.
