Unique Features
Big Lake Wilderness Lodge is a multi-cabin resort that is conveniently located close to BWCA entry points along the Echo Trail! Guests can enjoy 1,800 acres of water, 14 islands, and numerous inlets and bays. The Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness entry permits for day trips are FREE and you can walk or paddle your way there. Clean air and pure waters are waiting for your family.
Things To Do
Explore numerous hiking trails at the resort and nearby. Bass Lake trail is a scenic waterfall, Berry picking, bird-watching, and wildlife trail you’ll love. If you prefer a more rugged trek through stands of pine with high ridges and scenic overlooks, head to the Angleworm Trail. Take a day hike to Devil's Cascade which is 6 miles (one way) from the trail-head and see the waterfall on the Little Indian Sioux River.
Then get out on the lake and experience the wilderness than with paddle in hand- it’s right out your front door. Welcome to "canoe country" where the vistas have remained virtually unchanged for generations.
Off-resort tourist activities include: Dorothy Molter Museum, the International Wolf Center, the North American Bear Center, the Ely-Winton Historical Society, and the Soudan Underground Mine State Park.
Things to remember: Bring your own bath towels.
