Trophy Whitetail Deer
Current logging practices combined with mild winter conditions for numerous years have been very favourable to our Whitetail population. Everyone has heard of Northwestern Ontario’s MONSTER BUCKS, big bodied deer with high scoring potential.
Our guided trophy Whitetail Hunts, provided principally on private lands exclusive to Rugby Lake Lodge, include tree stands in forage areas or along active rub or scrape lines.
Many of our stands consistently produce 10 Point Bucks or better, year after year.
Black Bear
An abundance of food and reduced hunting pressure ensures an excellent opportunity to bag that brute of a bear you have been looking for.
Our guided Black Bear hunts include prebaited stands, game retrieval, and skinning services, on land exclusive to and surrounding Rugby Lake Lodge. Boat and motor are also included, as some of our stands are lake accessible only. What outdoorsman could ask for more, hunt your stand morning/evening and fish the afternoon.
We pride ourselves on very clean, comfortable, modern accommodations, which include everything you need to relax and enjoy your holiday.
Our 2 & 3 unit lake view cottages can accommodate couples to groups of 6.
