Visit Kabetogama Lake

Every single one of our Kabetogama Lakeside Resorts offers your family and friends private lakeside lodging with access to the natural waterways of the Voyageurs National Park. In fact, most of the National Park is undeveloped, completely natural shoreline. You truly cannot get closer to Mother Nature than staying on Lake Kabetogama.

The name Kabetogama has many translations. One of our favorites is ?the lake that lies alongside another? (Rainy Lake). In the Ojibwe language, Kabe means ?all? and Ogema means ?chief.? At the Kabetogama Lake Resorts, we think perhaps it simply means God?s Country.

Don?t worry if you can?t pronounce it (cab-uh-toe-ga-muh) or spell it. Just call it ?Kab,? and you?ll sound like a local.

History & Status of the Fishery

Peary is a 112 acre lake located in the interior of Voyageurs National Park; approximately 30 miles southeast of International Falls, MN. The entire lake is 15 feet deep or less. Peary Lake has a relatively simple fish community dominated by Northern Pike.

Historically, Northern Pike have been numerous and offer anglers a good fishing opportunity. In 2018, gillnet abundance was 13.67 Northern Pike per set, which was twice as high as the top end of the range normally seen in similar lakes. Average weight was 1.64 pounds, which was within the expected range for this lake type. Maximum length observed in the sample was 25.5 inches.

Black Crappie and Yellow Perch were sampled and are normally appealing to anglers. However, their abundances were low and sizes were small.
