Reviews & Reputation

Review Highlights

Kayair Service and Outposts, based at Lake Lac Seul in Ontario, has a loyal following among repeat customers. Reviewers return year after year, in one case for ten consecutive years. Guests describe the operation as well-run, personable, and worth the return trip, and reviews are highly positive across the board. Reviewers single out Peter Kay and his family (including Karen) for their attentiveness and professionalism. In one search-and-rescue situation, Peter located stranded anglers by air within minutes of arriving on scene. The outposts are rustic but functional, with solar-powered electricity, propane hot water and cooking, and lake-sourced running water. They are comfortable enough for a week-long stay. The bathroom is an outdoor privy, not an indoor toilet.

Guests report big catches of walleye, pike, and lake trout on outpost lakes like Birch Lake. One group of five anglers landed over 900 walleye and pike in a single week, and called that a below-average year by their own standards. The boats are heavy-duty 14.5-foot Alumarine craft with 15hp Yamaha motors, well suited to Canadian fishing conditions. Birch Lake is a favorite among guests who have sampled multiple outposts in the Kay Air network.

Guests raise no recurring complaints and stay satisfied across multiple visits. The one thing to be ready for is the rustic outpost setup, including the outdoor toilet, which is fairly standard for remote fly-in camps in Ontario. The camp is best suited to groups of fishing buddies, particularly walleye and pike anglers, who are comfortable with a self-sufficient, back-to-basics setup and put fish counts and remote access ahead of resort-style amenities.
