Portage Lake

Portage Lake is located in the heart of Chippewa National Forest. You won’t find the lake crowded with other people or a lot of boats. There are just two resorts and 12 private homes on its 7.5 miles of shoreline. It is about four miles from your cottage door to two of Minnesota’s largest lakes - Winnibigoshish and Leech Lakes. If you so desire, we will make arrangements for you take a guided launch trip there. You won’t need a guide to catch fish on Portage Lake, as we have the correct bait and the right tackle and information and will will send you in the right direction. Portage Lake is occasionally stocked with northern pike and the DNR stocks it with walleyes on a regular basis - over 10 million in the past five years. You will also catch crappies, perch and largemouth bass. We have a clean modern fish cleaning house. We have a fish packer’s license and a freezer to care for your catch. At Sunset Beach you will find clean comfortable cabins ranging from small to large. If camping is more your style, we have a large campground with a limited number of electric, water and sewer hookups. Children love the playground including sandbox, swings, climbing bars. Young and old alike can enjoy the volleyball & basketball courts, sandy beach and shallow swimming with no drop-offs, canoe and kayaks. We have been welcoming guests to Sunset for more than 50 years. We look forward to sharing Sunset with you! Thank-you for you interest in our resort and in our area. George & Sally
