Review: Best Drive-to Lodge I’ve Stayed at in 30+ Years

Review - Brennan Harbour Fishing Resort - Spanish River

Brennan Harbour write up by the owner of FishingTraveler.com with a number of additional reviews from guests.

Brennan Harbour is located on the the Whalesback Channel of Lake Huron, off the mouth of the Spanish River. They are the only resort on the Whalesback Channel. While there you can fish either the Channel or the Spanish River. The more that I read about this area, the more intrigued I am about this place. The fishing sounds really good. Brennan Harbour seems like a great spot to begin to explore its fishing opportunities.

This post contains the information I learned about Brennan Harbour from searching the web. Fishing Traveler has received no financial or any other type of compensation for this post. The information here is accurate only to the best of my knowledge. All information should be verified with Brennan Harbour before booking a trip.

Fishing

You can either fish the Whalesback Channel of Lake Huron or the Spanish River. Fishing is mostly for walleye, northern pike, smallmouth bass and jumbo perch. Sturgeon, salmon and trout can also be caught. Guides can be arranged by the resort for you.

Accommodations

Brennan Harbour Resort has cabins of various sizes. Their largest cabins will hold up to 7 people. Cabins have everything that you need for a your Housekeeping Plan vacation.

They have a range of boats in their fleet. I am very impressed with their upgrade boats. 17′ Lund Outfitters with a 30hp 4 stroke or even a Lund Rebel with a 40hp 4 stroke could be your vessel for the week. The resort’s fleet of boats demonstrates their commitment to making sure fishermen maximize their fishing with quality boats.

Packages and Rates

They offer a range of packages from Housekeeping Plans to full American Plans. Their weekly Housekeeping Plan package rate is $545 per person. They offer two American Plan options. The first provides dinner only and costs $665 per person. Their full American Plan package with breakfast and lunch costs $795 per person. These are very reasonable rates.

They also have some very reasonable family rates. This is really important to me. Lodges like Brennan Harbour Resort understand that making fishing affordable for dads and moms to take their kids on fishing vacations is critically important to preserving our sport.

Everybody gets to be part of a midweek fish fry which sounds fun.

    My husband and I have stayed at many resorts in Ontario and this one was great! We visited Breannan Harbour Resort in 2009,and loved it so much so, that we booked for 2010 as we checked out.(Acutally in all fairness,we were ready to re book in by the first few hours we were there!!)
    We had a great time again this year….and again booked for 2011!! This is totally unheard of for us!! I think we’ve found our home away from home. You’ll never find a place so friendly and accomidating,in such a relaxed atmosphere! The scenery makes me thankful to be living in such a beautiful country. Oh and the fishing is awesome too!!! Check out the website, links and blogs for your self!!

    Our group of 8 has been going to Brennan Harbour for the last 4 years and are booked again for the summer of 2011. It’s a fine camp; the best drive-to lodge I’ve stayed at in 30+ years of fishing northern Ontario. The fishing has been near fly-in quality. The cabins are comfortable, clean and well maintained. The owners and staff have done everything possible to make us comfortable and feel welcomed.
