WHITETAIL DEER HUNTS, BLACK BEAR HUNTS, WATERFOWL , BIRD HUNTS
offered at our Hunting Lodge in the Rainy River District of Northwestern Ontario Canada.
We offer full service Ontario Hunting Trips as knowledgeable Ontario Hunting Outfitters and hunting guides.
Hunting, whether for Deer, Bear or Ducks, has been the main service that has always been provided at Harris Hill Resort since it was established.
The main reasons would be the large number and variety of wildlife in the area, low pressure hunting in this area, and the low population of inhabitants.
There are miles and miles of remote land and wilderness areas that we can access for Deer hunting.
We have assigned areas for our Black Bear Hunts that cannot be hunted by anyone else either. Our Bear Management Area is one of the largest in NorthWestern Ontario. Once again Ontario offers a Spring Bear Hunt as well as a Fall Bear Hunt.
We have an incredible opportunity for Waterfowl hunts here. Our Bay in front of the lodge has rice beds and reeds that provides shelter for the hunters and encourages an influx of Ducks and Geese. This is also a known migratory flight route for a variety of species of Ducks and Geese.
Whitetail Deer Hunts are VERY POPULAR here now because of our managed and baited sites.

Whitetail Deer Hunts are very popular for both residents and non-resident Deer Hunters. It is amazing to see the number and quality of Trophy Bucks that come out of this area every year.
