The area is filled with many outdoor adventures and activities to do. There are many types of adventures that can be found in the area, including hiking, site seeing, boating, blueberry picking, bird watching, wildlife sightings, hunting, fishing, snowmobiling, 4 wheeling and the list goes on!

Google Earth is a great program that allows you to zoom from the sky to have a bird's eye view of Kabustassa Lake and see the beautiful area surrounding Facowie Lodge. This is a free download software package that allows you to the terrain and all of the lakes. Our Lodge is located right off of a paved highway so it is easily to locate and very accessible.

The house is spacious, bite, and as-advertised. It’s a duplex, so if someone else is renting the other side, you will hear each other. Would definitely recommend.

Cute and welcoming!
We loved our stay at the Facowie Lodge. It was just as cute as it is in the pictures and we felt at home from the moment we walked in. The area around the lodge is beautiful and it was a northwoods getaway to remember for us and our young children. The host was very responsive and extremely helpful. We will look up the Facowie again for our next trip. One note: It was unseasonably warm when we visited and you have to dig a little to see that though the Facowie Lodge has many amenities, air conditioning isn’t one of them. It won’t be a problem for many people but you should know that going in!

Comfortable and Clean
A newer property that is well-kept and clean. Internet speed was decent for the non-outdoorsy group members. Kitchen was well equipped. Bed was comfortable. Good access to lots of trails and lakes. There is a decent restaurant across the road if you don't feel like cooking. Had a great time!

Facowie Lodge a peaceful & beautiful retreat
The Facowie Lodge (Both Grand and Loon) are outstanding, beautifully maintained, clean and in a beautiful setting. The Lodge has everything you need to settle in for a a great visit. We spent time visiting the National park, Kettle falls (Via Boat), Echo lake, Vermillian Falls, Crane Lake and a few others. My Wife and I stayed in Grand and we had family staying in Loon, everybody raved about how beautiful the lodge and surrounding area are. It was nice to explore the area without a lot of traffic, spotty cell service & surrounded by nature. We also enjoyed some great fishing in the area. The owner David, was a great communicator (Best we have experienced in all of our VRBO trips). The information he sent us prior to the trip helped us a plan a perfect week of relaxation and activities. We highly recommend this great Lodge and hope to return at some point in the future. Thank you David for helping to make our visit special.

Just what we expected!
Property was very clean and included everything as stated in the property description. Owner checked in with me the first day and again part way through our five night stay. Kitchen items were everything we needed to cook all meals during our stay. Loved the large bathroom vanity, as it made it easy for multiple people to get ready at once.

Great place to stay up North!
We loved the property. Very spacious, clean well stocked and overall we felt like at home. The manager was very attentive and allowed us to turn the heat on before the planned heating season. We appreciated it very much. It was a pleasure to communicate with David. He sent us a lot of information about the area and points of interest. Highly recommend this property for a family getaway.!
