What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“What a great trip this was and Red Lunkers was Johnny on the spot with all of our ice fishing stay needs. Always kept the jenny topped off and made sure we were all alive and well. Highly recommend to anybody looking for a great ice fishing trip!”
“I'm impressed by Jerry and the staff at Boondocks - They made sure I got out on safe ice, and put me in an area where I could scout to find walleye. It was great working with them!”
“Had the best experience up there with my father. They will do almost anything to insure a great time. We even caught a lot of fish with tips from the walleye legend Red. 301 that's a feat!”
“Really enjoyed my 1st experience and weekend ice fishing trip. Employees were great and really helped us out when needed. I'd love to do this another time in the future.”
“Had a great time, Jerry put us on the fish and we will definitely be back!”
