Winter ice fishing on the Northwest Angle and Islands reefs is hot! Come let our area's experienced guides take you out to a heated, well-lighted fish house with bait, and get you on to some fish. Please check our local resorts.

The Northwest Angle & Islands unique four season paradise is waiting for you. We have the nicest, friendliest people you will meet anywhere who are more than willing to help you!
The Northwest Angle and Islands are located at the Top of the Nation. Check out a map of Minnesota and you will find the chimney, and Lake of the Woods. Surrounded by Canada (Manitoba and Ontario), the Northwest Angle and Islands is the northernmost point in the contiguous United States. This unique part of the country can be reached by motoring along a winding nature filled road of tamarack, black spruce, white & red pine, cedar, and birch. You can also access the area across the lake via snowmobile, bombardier or passenger boat.

Our area offers much to do including: world class fishing, outstanding birding, hiking, golfing, boating, snowmobiling, sight seeing, and many other activities including touring attractions.

The Northwest Angle area is a premier fishery for Walleye and Muskie. In these pristine border waters you can fish two countries in one afternoon. Catch the excitement of Northern Pike, Sauger, Smallmouth Bass, Crappies, Jumbo Perch, and even Burbot thrown in for good measure!

Our region has some of the hottest reef fishing around in summer. After a delicious shore lunch of freshly caught fish, fried potatoes and baked beans, sit back and enjoy!

Explore an island or two, swim at a beautiful secluded sand beach. Create a laid back, gentle, quiet vacation or an adventure-filled fishing trip. While enjoying the quiet beauty of the area don't forget to check out our wild rice, pink Lady slippers and other vibrant wildflowers, northern lights, wild blueberries and raspberries, and the old feldspar mine.

Come experience the Northern lights and brilliant autumn colors. Fall duck hunting and fishing specials are offered by most resorts.

So if you are looking for a northwoods adventure, simple natural pleasures are at your doorstep. If you would like to escape from the everyday stresses of the world, the enchanted Northwest Angle and Islands area of Lake of the Woods is only a telephone call away.
