A private and luxurious island lodge near Kenora is receiving $225,000 from the Northern Ontario Heritage Fund to pay for renovations at the upscale resort.
Salisbury Cruises, operators of a Lake of the Woods passenger cruise ship, has converted a former staff house at the Turtle Bay Lodge into space for 12 guests.
The resort offers fine dining, fly-in fishing, a golf driving range, clay pigeon shooting and deer hunting on neighbouring islands.
The endeavor will create between three and 10 part-time jobs.
The money comes from the province's Enterprise North Job Creation Program.
