We are located just outside of Baudette, in beautiful northern Minnesota near the Canadian border. This area is considered to be a true sportsman’s paradise. Along with our shooting venue the area offers the finest Walleye fishing anywhere in the country.   Lake of the Woods has twice been the host of In-Fisherman’s PWT (Professional Walleye Tournament).   Lake of the Woods also offers some of the finest bird, deer & black bear hunting available.   It is truly one of the best-kept secrets around.

We are surrounded by beautiful forestland on one side and a spectacular lake and river on the other side, sharing the border with our Canadian neighbors.  Hwy 11 west from the International Falls airport to Baudette winds along the Rainy River and is a spectacular scenic drive with beautiful Norwegian Pines, Blue Spruce and Birch trees lining the route, with a view of the Rainy River along the way, interspersed with open fields where one can observe the local deer population feeding during certain times of the day.  The 80 mile long Rainy River flows from Rainy Lake into Lake of the Woods, which offers 60,000 miles of shoreline and 14,700 islands.
