As we begin our sixth season here at Five Lakes Lodge, I am reminded of why I really do love this life!
I’ll be honest with you, some days I long for my old “normal” 9 to 5 day job and camping and fishing on the weekend life! But then a week like this one […]
OMG! We have been busy little beavers here at Five Lakes Lodge the past month! Ian (and his friends… as our regular laborer Ron was out of town) have been busy!
After the bathroom in Cabin 7 was gutted and redone, the boys moved on to the kitchen in there. We have new cupboards!! Yay! […]
Ya, so my prediction of an early spring got totally shut down by Mother Nature. I guess I jinxed us?? I don’t know if I believe it but looking at the long range forecast, we just might see some nice weather headed our way soon. I thought by the way things were going in […]
I didn’t realize that it had been a while since posting. We have had a very busy couple months. Christmas came and went like a blur and on to January we went. The month started out with our wolf hunt. We had a couple groups in with hunters and fishermen. Everything was a success. […]

We’ve had a beautiful fall and the snow has finally started to fall and the ice has finally started to form! Last year the bay froze over here in front of the lodge on November 19th and this year it was the […]
Well the last 3 days here at Five Lakes Lodge have been nothing but cold, damp, and rain…. rain… and more rain! We actually were under a “rainfall advisory”! So needless to say that not one boat made it out on Saturday after everyone made it in to camp. Everyone just hunkered down in […]
Been a busy month here for us at Five Lakes Lodge. The kids were gone to Calgary AB to visit their Aunt Britt for a week and take in the Calgary Stampede. We had family up visiting us for 2 weeks! And the weather has been amazing! There was lots of fishing…. tubing and […]
Well… We had our first proposal here at Five Lakes Lodge! Dustin and I had been planning for months on how we could make his proposal special. We thought of a few unique ideas… but they involved the dock and water and we got scared that someone might actually drop the ring in the […]
