Din't be fooled by the name- Sand Lake is very much filled with water, and that water is filled with fish just waiting to be caught!

First things first: you'll be staying in colonial comfort during your stay at Sand Lake Resort. The are seven cabins to choose from, each sleeping anywhere from three to six people. They're fantastic places to kick back and take some well-earned rest, but when you're at SLR you'll be spending most of your time out on the lake! Sand Lake is a naturally fed 4,300 acre lake that attracts area fisherman at anytime of year. The size and scope of the lake means that the multitudes of Walleye can be more active the whole year through, and thus more likely to be caught!

Address

The charming collection of cabins offered by Isle O' Dreams Lodge is located on a unique peninsula offering magnificent views of Bad Axe Lake from almost every window!

The more than 2000-feet of beautiful shoreline offer plenty of opportunities for younger anglers to land their first catch. But if you want to land the big one, grab a boat and head off into the middle of Bad Axe, where a huge variety of famous Minnesota fishes will be (hopefully) waiting for you. Perch, northern pike, bullhead, muskie, largemouth bass, crappie, smallmouth bass, catfish, walleye, bream, bluegill and pumpkinseed sunfish all call at least a portion of Bad Axe home, and it's up to you to find them! Lucky for you, even if the fish aren't biting you can still enjoy beautiful views of the changing colors on the shoreline!
