Starting from Eagle Lake Camps one may canoe or motor up Square Lake thoroughfare to the famous Salmon Pool, where the king of fresh-water fighters makes his annual sojourn of several weeks. This wonderful three and one-half mile thoroughfare between Eagle Lake and Square Lake is one of the finest stretches of water on this continent -- placid water, beautiful vistas, and shaded salmon pools. Freedom from wind makes it an ideal place to learn the art of paddling a canoe. At dawn or dusk see moose, deer, bear, and eagles.

     Boating on Eagle Lake is an experience. Almost 20 miles of open waters are yours to enjoy in the spring, summer and fall of the year. Tour the secluded areas of the 23,000 acres wilderness preserve, or take a trip into town. Three thoroughfares provide safe and relaxing canoeing opportunities for the entire family. Canoe trips are especially popular from late July to late September. Speed boats, fishing boats, pontoon boats, personal watercraft, canoes, and kayaks are available for rent from www.oldmillmarina.com.
