South River Resort


Our eight fully renovated deluxe housekeeping cottages offer a semi-private atmosphere, are fully equipped and have a view of the water. Each cottage also has its own private fire pit.  Take your pick of a two or three bedroom, with enough space in the largest cottage to accommodate upwards of 8 people comfortably.  Preparing meals has never been easier, especially when a private deck, propane BBQ and patio set is provided for each of the eight cottages. Although our lodge is strictly housekeeping there is plenty of opportunity for everyone to mingle and get acquainted with the other guests around a campfire, our large heated inground pool, the recreation hall or any of the other common areas.



Who can think of Lake Nipissing without thinking of fishing? The lake is prized for its catches of walleye, monster pike, giant musky, scrappy bass and many other sought after species.  The fishing opportunities are indeed limitless here with seemingly endless water to explore.  We're not just about fishing, peruse some of the other activities that we have to offer - there's something for everyone!

We offer a charter fishing service for walleye, pike and musky or for those who'd rather do their own thing, we provide our guests with maps to the hottest current fishing locations as well as all the information needed to ensure success.



We carry 16-foot Legend Widebody boats, complete with swivel seats, fish finder, rod holders, live wells and clean, quiet, efficient 20 and 25hp Mercury 4-stroke outboards. All of our motors are equipped with electric start for your convenience.  Electric motors are also available for rent.  Each of our boats come equipped with the latest electronics including GPS with Navionics Hotmaps, presenting the angler with a detailed view of the lake's bottom, aiding with navigation and locating fish holding structure with ease.  Of course, all life jackets and necessary safety equipment are provided.  As an added bonus, our rental rates include the cost of fuel.

For those bringing their own boats we offer well lit docking with shore power, sheltered from wind, waves and boat traffic. 

Guests also enjoy free use of our fleet of canoes, kayaks and peddle-boats.
