Winefred Lake Lodge, Conklin, Alberta

Winefred Lake is situated in the heart of Alberta's boreal forest, 185 km (70 miles) southeast of Fort McMurray, Alberta. Winefred Lake boasts some of the finest trophy fishing in Alberta, consistently producing large Northern Pike and Walleye.

Winefred Lake Lodge offers their guests the best outdoor recreation experience in Northeastern Alberta. Whether you're a seasoned outdoor enthusiast with a passion for world-class fishing and hunting, or if you're just looking for some time away from your hectic lifestyle, Winefred Lake Lodge is an ideal location (see Map) to relax and enjoy an Alberta wilderness experience. At Winefred Lake Lodge we provide our clients with exceptional service, attending to the smallest of details. Our modern hand-hewn log lodge and light-housekeeping cabins provide comfort in a relaxed, casual atmosphere.

We are proud to be involved in Alberta's thriving tourism industry and are members of the Fort McMurray Visitor's Bureau and the Alberta Professional Outfitters Society (APOS). Winefred Lake Lodge is committed to the responsible management of Alberta's fishing resource, and as such, we advocate "Catch & Release" fishing.

We have 4 rooms attached to the main lodge, each of which accommodates 4 people, with a private bathroom and shower in each unit. Or if you prefer, we have self-contained cabins on site. Two of the cabins have 3 bedrooms, while one has two bedrooms. The cabins have fridge, stove, cooking utensils, gas bar-b-que and everything else you would expect.

Guests are provided with 16' aluminium boats equipped with new 20 horsepower motors; this combination is perfect for Winefred Lake. The lake itself is 36 km long (14 miles) and 23 km (9 miles) wide giving you plenty of room to "hook the big one!"
While initially coming to fish, hunt or bird watch, after a few days, it is not uncommon to find guests reading a good book on the expansive deck or relaxing in our outdoor hot tub.

During the winter season, many guests use our lodge as a base for snowmobiling along the shoreline, across the lake or on the regional trail network.

Winefred Lake Lodge is accessible by either road or air. If you plan to drive to the lodge we do recommend that you have a reliable 4-wheel drive vehicle. Should you need to, rentals are available from all the major rent-a-car companies.
