Depending on the season there are catfish, large mouth bass, small mouth bass, spotted bass, white bass, panfish, stripers, and walleye.

Away from it all
Very quiet. Not a lot of people. The wild life were awsome. Looking over the river seeing deer run across river. Seeing the fish jump and animals on river bank. It was a great time to just relax.

Cozy Cabin on the River
So enjoyed staying in this cozy cabin on the lake. It was quiet and peaceful. The Crystal Minds we came to see were close by with a grocery store and wonderful Cafe in Mt Ida. Alan was available if you had any questions or concerns. I would definitely come stay here again!
