Lake of the Woods County was shaped by the logging booms, commercial fishing fleets, and the proud Ojibwe heritage of this land. The waterways that carry anglers today once carried steamboats, lumber rafts, and generations of Anishinaabe families whose traditions still run strong. We honor that history every day — from the Rainy River’s rich past to the thousands of stories shared over food, coffee, and a cold drink in our dining area.
