PCL 15643 DeCourcey

A place like this isn’t found. It’s inherited. Hidden at the end of a 2 km private road winding through boreal forest, where towering pines meet shimmering water and silence becomes the soundtrack, sits a timeless Northern Ontario retreat. Originally handcrafted from pine logs as an exclusive lodge for Abitibi mill executives, this remarkable off grid property has been lovingly preserved, honouring the history, craftsmanship, and quiet luxury of a bygone era. Opportunities to own a classic northern getaway in such immaculate condition are exceptionally rare. Surrounded by Crown land, this is one of only two properties on the north side of DeCourcey Lake, offering coveted south-facing views across pristine waters. Renowned for its rugged Canadian Shield scenery, exceptional walleye and northern pike fishing, and untouched wilderness, it feels worlds away—yet is less than an hour from Thunder Bay. The 1½-storey log lodge welcomes you with a covered verandah overlooking the lake. Inside, a wood cookstove, cozy woodstove, propane appliances, and an open-concept living space capture the warmth and authenticity of classic lodge living. Two main-floor bedrooms and two loft bedrooms provide space for family and friends. A separate handcrafted log guest cabin, traditional log sauna, storage building, and outhouse complete this extraordinary retreat. From the private dock, spend your days swimming, fishing, sailing, waterskiing, or simply watching the sun move across the lake. Privately maintain the access road to ensure the exclusivity that has defined this property for generations. If you’ve been searching for a place where children grow up catching fish instead of notifications, where evenings end around a crackling fire, and where family traditions are measured in seasons rather than schedules, you’ve found it. This is more than a camp. It’s a Northern Ontario legacy. Private viewings by appointment only. Please do not access the property without your REALTOR®.
