Lodge History

My photo
Pine Portage Lodge located on Kabinakagami Lake, Watson's Algoma Vacations year round Reservation office 1-800-363-4443 is located in Wawa, Ontario, Canada
In 1941 at the age of 18 Dick Watson Sr. joined the R.C.A.F. and went to serve his country. After four years of flying fighter planes and being shot down three times, he returned home in 1945 as a war hero. It was at this time that he decided to fulfill his dreams of starting a tourism business on Kabinakagami Lake using his military earnings. Dick and his wife Edna married in 1946 and together they began to build their future at Pine Portage Lodge.

....And now 4 the Bear News!!!!!!


Well we still have the big black bears to look forward to this year. We had a Mom with three little ones earlier this summer, but right now it seems to be a few loners around. We've had to trap a few and take them for a little ride to release them further from the lodge area.


If you look close you can see the unhappy resident of this trap, but not for long since he will be returned to the wild.
