Things to Do

Lakes and Fishing

Hours and availability can change. Confirm current information before visiting.

Fishing License

A Minnesota fishing license is required for most residents and nonresidents. Licenses are available online through the Minnesota DNR (dnr.state.mn.us) or from any authorized agent statewide. Confirm current fees before your trip.

Winter and Ice Fishing

Trout Lake is fished through the ice as well as open water. Ice conditions can change rapidly. Guests must rely on current local and official safety information from the Minnesota DNRbefore traveling onto frozen water — ice thickness is never guaranteed or measured by the DNR on any specific lake.
