We've been to Errington's twice. Our second visit was for our honeymoon. The cabins are cozy and comfortable. Our honeymoon brought cold weather and rain, it was mid-September. The constant supply of firewood was appreciated and we were warm as toast. We were the only guests in the cabins (it was their last week of the season), and had the... More

Took my new Memphis wife camping on Lake Wabatongushi for our honeymoon in 1976. The kids were born in '78 & 79, and we waited 10 years to return with them only to find no more camping was allowed. Checked with Errington's Resort, which we visited in 1976 and booked a cabin with them. Been going ever since. Would be... More

We booked this vacaction for our 12 year old grandson. He wanted to ride a train and to go fishing in Canada. Sounded like a good solution for his trip. I don't fish but hoped there was something I could do. Wow, more than we could have hoped for! The people were wonderful, the food was great (too much of... More

Just completed our 11th annual trip to Errington's. The scenery is stunning. Forest or lake as far as you can see, crisp clean air, lots of wildlife. Fishing is great, and no, I won't tell you where our favorite holes are, although Doris will tell you where she would go. We choose the housekeeping plan, cooking our own meals, but... More

We've been coming up to Al's place for many years now. We've seen the many positive changes he's made -- all for the better. I'd say that out of the last 15 years I've been up there 5 or 6 times. Other family members can boast the same record. It's a proven and pleasant respite. Lucky for me, we've got... More

The boats are excellent, the dock staff give 125% to make sure you have good equipment and will answer any questions you have. A couple pointers: Come prepaed to... More

Our family of 2 adults and 2 girls (ages 15 & 8) had a super time during our 7day stay. We took a float plane from Hawk Junction to get to the island and took the train out. Both were hassle-free. The food was excellent. Good food (nothing "bistro") that all of us enjoyed. We opted for the family-plan that... More

We regret the time it took to repair the sewage problem. We try to get to problems as quickly as we can but being remote it is sometimes difficult to get materials on a timely basis. Since the repair there has not been a problem. Thank You - Al & Doris Errington More

My daughter and I have stayed at the Errington's for one fabulous week every summer for the past 7 years. It has become our special place just to relax and to get in touch with nature and with ourselves. We are nature lovers and enjoy taking the canoe out for long trips on the lake with its various bays and... More
