2010 Early Spring

Northern Ontario had a mild winter and early spring. The ice was off the lake on April 12 and we put out the main dock the following day. We were pleased to be able to open the cottages for guests on May 1 this year, two weeks earlier than normal. We are approaching the middle of the month with Walleye fishing season opening on the 15th. with some of our guests flying in from as far away as Chicago. We have the dock extended out this year for our seasonal campers and a new swimming platform to check out.

For anyone still planning fall hunts, all our archery moose tags are spoken for but we have accommodations available for hunting groups that have their own tags. We also have accommodations available the third week (October 23 - 30, 2010) of rifle moose hunting.

WANTED: Bear hunters...with the abundance of bears in the area, we have kept our Bear Hunting Package at a low price. We give each hunter a choice of two active bear baits to hunt from and will do all we can to provide you with a success hunting experience. (Please see the web page for hunting details)

On April 23 - 25, we participated in the Petawawa Sportsman Show and had our booth set up for display. Each night we drew a name for a daily prize. Winner of the Friday draw was a young man, Kaiden, from Petawawa. (See picture) Saturday's winner was Darren Latham. Sunday's winner had the prize left at the arena for pickup. Congratulations to all the winners and thank you everyone who stopped by to see us at our booth.

While driving into the resort you will see an additional six RV camping lots that have been created. These lots will have power and water with a dumping station at the shower house. Each of the existing lots have received a new numbered sign post with a solar light on top, making it easier to locate RV camping lots at night.

We continuously strive to maintain and upgrade Wild Goose Lake Resort for the betterment of all our guests. Drive in and visit us. We would love to see you here!
