What’s so special about Lake Vermilion?Considered by many to be among the world’s most beautiful lakes, Vermilion is also big.

Boating from one end to the other is 38 miles of scenic beauty! Lake Vermilion is the southern-most Canadian Shield Lake offering breathtaking scenery carved by glaciers. Its clear waters touch 1,200 miles of shoreline, and are filled with 365 islands. The area is rich to wildlife for the watcher or hunter; you’ll find grouse, waterfowl, deer and bear. If fishing is your game, this lake offers a long history of record size and “boat filling” catches. Varieties include walleye, northern pike, large and smallmouth bass, crappies, bluegills, perch and muskies. A walleye hatchery, northern rearing pond, and musky stocking program ensure that fish populations will always be healthy. Ask any fishing expert about Vermilion and you’re bound to hear numerous fishing legends!

Why choose Vermilion Dam Lodge?Unique location, quality accommodations and superior service makes our resort special. Our

staff is dedicated to providing our guests with everything they need to ensure a relaxing and memorable vacation. From docking your boat to delivering firewood and helping you get set up for the day. Our resort sits on 60 acres of pristine woodlands, nestled in Wolf Bay, a well-protected corner of Lake Vermilion surrounded by federal and state wilderness forests. The resort is centrally located on the lake providing easy boating access to both the east and west basins of the lake. The views from anywhere on our grounds are always astonishing. Our guests enjoy the beautiful lakeside views of sparkling clean waters along with the sights and sounds of the rapids cascading off the lake and forming the start of the Vermilion River. There are some great fishing spots located near the resort. You really don’t have to travel far to catch any species the lake offers. If you want to stay close there is great fishing right off the resort docks or wadding out knee deep into the current in front of the dam to fish one of the hottest bass spots on the lake. In addition, our guests love fishing the one mile stretch of river directly behind the resort at the base of the rapids. For the fisherman that want to explore the lake and fish the diverse variety of shorelines, reefs, Islands, sand bars and weed beds they will find the lake very well marked for navigation and easy to find goods fishing spots. For those guests that enjoy exploring and taking in the scenery of the outdoors there are several great trails around the resort to hike, explore, and photograph wildlife.

The resort has 22 modern vacation cabins of varying size and amenities, depending on your lodging requirements. All of our cabins have kitchens, microwaves, coffee makers, baths, and decks with BBQ grills. Many of our cabins have extra bathrooms, dishwashers, washers and dryers, Jacuzzi tubs, fireplaces and great views all the cabins are furnished with kitchen utensils,

cook ware, bed linens, and towels.For the summer vacationer there is a heated pool, playground for

kids, sandy beach, and family activities. In addition there are canoes, kayaks, paddleboat, volleyball net, tether ball and sand toys. For that rainy day our lodge offers a general store with groceries, tackle, gifts

and a game room. American Meal plans are offered in the lodge dining room featuring delicious home cooked meals.

Avid sports enthusiasts can explore endless miles of reefs, sunken islands, drop-offs and underwater structures for walleye, muskie, bass, northern pike, crappie, and bluegill. More than 1,200 miles of shoreline and 365 islands provide the perfect backdrop for a relaxing and enjoyable vacation exploring the many protected bays and inlets of Lake Vermilion.

Since 1969, The Department of Natural Resources has been stocking Walleye in Lake Vermilion and maintain a hatchery on the lake from which most all northern Minnesota lakes are stocked. In the past few years, in excess of 33,000,000 Walleye have been returned annually to Lake Vermilion from the DNR hatchery.

That, combined with “catch and release” practices, assures future fish populations and memorable vacations for anglers. More than 40,000 acres of sky blue waters invite you to experience days of unmatched natural displays of wildlife, breathtaking scenery, and fabulous sunsets. Sandy beaches, water-skiing, canoeing, and sailing entertain guests of Lake Vermilion.
