Since my original review, Krista from Wilderness North contacted me and is offering our group a deeply discounted rate for a future trip. Her professionalism and empathy were greatly appreciated. Based on her response, I have increased the rating to 4 stars (from 2) and will update further after our return trip. We are more than willing to go back as the fishing was never in question. Returning in 2021. A group of 6 guys that have been doing drive in trips for 20 years and decided to finally do a fly in. If the fishing wasn't outstanding, I'd be a lot more upset and only had 1 star. Here are my main complaints with Wilderness North (WN). #1 we were promised 5 boats, 3 at main cabin and 2 at the portage lake. The portage lake is AWESOME! But, we were very limited because only one of the motors started. This created a little worry for anyone venturing out more than a few miles. We can row, but that didn't appeal much to us. I advised WN during day 2, but nobody did anything. #2 Water pump was bad, they knew it before we got there, it went bad on day 1, so they had to fly someone in and replace it on day 3. He replaced it but when he hooked up the power supply, something was wrong, because we no longer had any power when the sun wasn't directly on the solar panels. #3 We've learned to always take our own CO2 detector, good thing we did. Theirs was broken. #4 Finally, when there is no power, the pump doesn't work, nor does the WiFi. Kind of a safety hazard ... if someone was hurt, there was no way to communicate if the sun was down. #5 I still have not heard back from WN management about the problems we had, doubt I ever will. When 6 guys pay in better than 9,000 ... I expected a little better from their equipment. Make sure you ask a LOT of questions of any outfitter and if they have Sat phones for rent, do it. Better to be safe. Again ... fishing was great, we all caught our largest fish ever. Just wish they had more reliable equipment and better service.

My wife and I did a week long canoe trip from Armstrong to Strikers Point lodge on Whitewater Lake. The level of detail and attention from Wilderness North was impressive as it made trip planning extremely easy. I would definitely use them again.
