FAQs
General
Where can I find information about crossing the US/Canada border? Please refer to the CBSA website for the most current border crossing information. In general, the process is:
- Enter Canada via planned port of entry (typically Sprague or South Junction).
- Upon arrival to the Northwest Angle, report to US Customs. Check in using the iPad at Jim’s Corner, the Angle Outpost Lodge, or use the CBP Roam mobile app.
- When departing the Northwest Angle, check in with Canadian Customs to provide advance notice of your entry into Canada. Stop at Jim’s Corner and use the provided phone.
- Cross back into the US via planned port of entry.
Can I drive to the northernmost point of the continuous United States? No, it’s accessible by water only.
What are my dining options? All of our cabins have kitchens and outdoor grills if you prefer to cook. There is a small convenience store at the Northwest Angle, plan your grocery shopping accordingly. Jerry’s Bar & Restaurant is a few miles down the road from the resort and there are several island restaurants accessible via the lake.

If you’ve booked a guided trip, please confirm with your guide what license(s) is needed. **Note: We highly recommend purchasing your license(s) in advance. Cell and internet service can be intermittent due to our remote location.
Do I really need a guide? It’s not required, but if you’re new to the north side of Lake of the Woods, we highly recommend booking a guide for at least the first day or two to get acclimated. For more information on our guides, visit their websites, linked in the Guide page above.

What is the reporting process for fishing in Canada? when boating into Canada, you do not have to check in with customs unless you touch land, a dock, anchor, moor, or exchange goods or services. If you plan on doing any of these activities, call 888-CAN-PASS just ahead of your trip to check in with Canadian Customs. Upon your return to the US, you will need to check back in with US Customs as you are entering the US from a foreign country.
