Winter Update February 25, 2010
LIVE BAIT? This year we will be offering a variety of minnows as we have added 3 new tanks to house them.
There is still winter in the Britt area and we are taking full advantage of it by snowmobiling almost every day. The river is completely frozen over. There have been alot of people in to buy bait for fishing on the river and they all agree fishing has been good. Unfortunately all good things come to an end and winter fishing season for pike and walleye in Zone 14 closes at the end of February. Inland lakes and other areas are open longer so be sure to check the MNR Website for individual area closings. The link to the MNR is available on our website under"ACTIVITIES" - "FISHING".
As of July 1, 2010 the new HST (Harmonized Sales Tax) will take affect. This will mean that everything after that date will be taxed at 13%. On cottages you now pay 5% GST and 5% PST and camping is taxed at 5% GST only. We are looking into whether or not the HST is to be applied, if you book prior to July 1st and pay the deposit or any part of the total charge. When clarified we will post it here so check back often.
Start planning your vacation here at River Haven now and you may save the additional tax!
You may have noticed that we now have a camera installled giving you a picture (upper left on this page) of the river in front of River Haven. This picture is updated every minute.
