Ice Fishing - Snowmobiling - Winter Activities - Winter Vacations - Lake of the Woods Resorts - Ontario Ice Fishing

Ice Fishing and Snowmobiling are popular winter activities during the winter season at Lake of the Woods Resorts. Snow shoeing and cross country skiiing are also outdoor activities. The ice often reaches 4 feet deep or more, making those areas on our frozen Lake of the Woods a great place for winter sports activities and family fun winter vacations in Ontario.

Winter Ice Fishing for Walleye: Great winter activites in Heated Ice Fishing Shanties - great winter activities for kids too.

This is Gary & Cheryl enjoying a great ice fishing expedition.

Snowmobiling on the frozen Lake of the Woods is a great Canadian adventure.

Enjoy great scenery, magnificent views and great photography opportunities

Harris Hill Resort is right next to main snowmobiling trails, groomed trails too, that leads from the USA, to Nestor Falls, to Kenora, to different towns in Manitoba and back to the USA again. We are also nearby to "community trails" that lead into the main trails as well as neighbouring towns. Also enjoy snowmobiling on the lake and climbing rock outcroppings plus sight-seeing.

With a variety of fish species within 1 - 4 miles from Harris Hill Resort, it is an opportune area for winter ice fishing enthusiasts. These areas are quite secluded and have low pressure fishing. You won't find miles and miles of ice huts, more like 8 -10, and 3 of them belong to Harris Hill Resort for renting out to our customers, along with warm comfortable house keeping cottage to return to in the evening at our ake of the Woods Resort.

Ice Fishing for Walleye landed this nice 29" Master Angler: which are often caught on Lake of the Woods

At most times you can readily catch your limits of Walleye and Sauger, while ice fishing comfortably in your heated ice huts, or ice shacks as we Canadians call them.

Winter ice fishing produces many large fish like this 18" Sauger, which is HUGE for a Sauger. Related to the Walleye family, Saugers are fun to fish for too, all winter long.

36" Northern Pike, another Master Angler harvested during winter ice fishing, and ice fishing in a comfortable heated ice shanty too!

Many Northern Pike are also caught on Lake of the Woods during the winter fishing season.

Master Angler Perch at 13.75": Lured in ice fishing

There are alot of large Perch caught here on Lake of the Woods.

Being a member of the Walleye family, they are plentiful, fun to catch, and good to eat!

Black Crappie Fishing is always fun and exciting: Driving out on the ice and fishing in the warm sun makes it a great advenrture and a memorable day of fishing.

We can also snowmobile or trailer out to another area for Black Crappie, and to another area for Trout. These are scenic rides to popular areas where these species of freshwater fish are readily found.

Although we generally ice fish in warm comfortable heated ice huts, on a warm sunny day it is often preferable to actually sit outside and enjoy the warmth of the sun and take in the fresh air and the view of the lake and the Bald Eagles looking for lunch.

With 4 feet of ice it is safe enough to drive your vehicles right out on the ice to your favorite ice fishing spot.

During a "good" winter, if there is not too much snow and wind, we can maintain an ice road so that you can drive your trucks right to to the nearby fishing spots. Otherwise you have access to our fishing shacks and private fishing spots with your Snowmobile or your ATV depending on the snow conditions.

Drive out to one of our heated ice fishing huts on your ATV or snowmobile  OR "Hire a Ride" from HHR

Winter activities and ice fishing make for an exciting, memorable winter vacation.
