Welcome to
Zup’s Fishing Resort & Canoe Outfitters

We are proud to be a family owned operation for 80+ years.  Let our family introduce yours to the ways of the wilderness in comfort; it would be a pleasure to host you.

Hello folks and welcome to our web site. We hope you enjoy your online stroll through our “neck of the woods” better known as “God’s Country.”

Our operation is twofold:  we are a boat and motor fishing lodge on Lac La Croix and we also offer canoe trips into Minnesota’s BWCAW and Ontario’s QUETICO PROVINCIAL PARK.  If you don’t see a package that suits your needs, you can rest assured we will provide one for you.

Tow boat service to the heart of the Park!

Save several days of paddling and enter the Quetico Park or the BWCAW at their origin. Our towboats drop you off at the entry point of your choice for the Quetico Park: Bottle Portage, McAree, Black Robe, Twin Falls(Maligne River), Beaver House, and Snake Falls (Three Mile). We also drop off anywhere along the Canadian side of Lac La Croix for a quick entry into the Boundary Waters: Snow Bay, Takumich area, Lady Boot Bay, Tiger Bay and Bottle Portage. Save days of paddling and be dropped right at the doorway of the Quetico or Boundary Waters!
