Great fly in service to remote resorts in the Nestor Falls area. On time, experienced pilots take you to and from resorts only accessible by flying

Really adds an extra level of excitement to take off and land on water. Wes keeps the dock tight and the engines running ( soon to be in the air as well ) , Ben is an amazing pilot and knows how to work the crowd. Flying with Northwest is the Cherry on top to the adventure!

Being on the fat side of the lake, you have a lot quicker access to tons of good fishing spots. Boat motors are underpowered and do not have trolling motors so plan accordingly. The cabin is great. Simple, but they all are up here. Layout is good and the deck off the front is awesome. Mostly solar powered, which means you want to be conservative with the power you use.

Excellent service and a great cabin. Everyone was personable and professional. Shane is very helpful and our pilot Ben was a pro.

What a great experience to share with my friends. Shane is professional, punctual and personable guy. The cabins are comfortable and cozy. We had the lake to ourselves and enjoyed every minute. I highly recommend.

Our vehicle was moved near the plane for our arrival back to make efficient work of getting our gear loaded and on our way home.

Great service, fantastic location and super friendly staff. If you need to fly these are the guys you want to contact.

Been using their flying services for 15 years - I think, but have lost count - and have enjoyed staying at their outpost on Lake Kishkutena for many years. Whether you use their flying services or stay at one of their outposts you will not be disappointed. The pilots are terrific, the planes are like one of the family and Shane and Gina and crew will make you want to return every year.

We took some visitors up for a sightseeing tour of the numerous lakes. The variety of fall colours in both the water and the trees was breathtaking. The pilot even flew us over our brother’s house that we had hoped to show our relatives from Paris, which was such a thoughtful touch. The whole team went above and beyond. Even though we had booked a smaller plane, they upgraded us to a larger one that day, which turned out to be even more comfortable. The owner came and spoke with us personally, which made us feel very welcomed and valued. Our pilot, Ben, was incredibly friendly, entertaining, and skilled — his steady hand gave everyone complete confidence, and the landing was so smooth our guests didn’t even realize we were back on the water! A huge thank you to Shane, Gina, and Ben for making the day so memorable. We highly recommend Northwest Flying Inc. for anyone looking to experience the incredible beauty of Nestor Falls, especially when you have visitors from out of town or abroad. Truly an unforgettable adventure! Glen and Anne Carradice

It\\\\\\\'s an unmatched getaway with an emphasis on being out in Canada\\\\\\\'s great outdoors. - Trip Prep: Sent a few emails to NWF via the address on their website. Answered promptly each time. Worked out pricing timing and location within a few days. Very easy to work with. - The Fly Out: Greeted by NWF pilots bursting with enthusiasm in an almost creepy way. Stepped out of the car, loaded and up in the air in 30 minutes. No joke. - Cabin Check In: Cabin at Kishkutena (sp) lake was in great shape. Hot water, shower, stove, refrigerator and beds: sleeps 6 comfortably, 3 awesome boats with swivel seats. Kish is a Great Lake: bass muskie and lake trout. - Pick Up: Pilot arrived a little early and ready to help load plane. Gear up and headed back in 20 min flat. Landed back in Nestor Falls in 20 min. Greeted by friendly NWF employees to help you load your car. Highest possible recommendation. Put this trip in your vacation arsenal. Let NWF be the ones to make it easy for you.

Flights have always been great, pilots are friendly and work their butts off to get your gear loaded and unloaded in a timely fashion so you can get out on the lake to catch the big one. Myself and my family highly recommend Shane and his crew!

The flights were timely, smooth (even with the windy weather), and the pilots were friendly and did all the loading/unloading of our gear. The cabin we stayed at was excellent. It had everything you needed for cooking and comfortable living arrangements. The deck overlooking the lake was beautiful! You do need to bring your own toilet paper for the outhouse and when it says they supply pillow cases, it means there are pillows there. You are completely \\\'disconnected\\\' when you are at the lake and it was wonderful!
