Lake Bemidji State Park

Lake Bemidji State Park offers convenient boat access to the 1,500-acre Lake Bemidji via a concrete boat ramp located on the north end of the lake. The park is a popular destination for kayakers, canoeists, and boaters seeking a scenic paddling experience among pine forests and sandy shores. The lake connects to the Mississippi River system, providing opportunities for extended water exploration to the Cass Lake chain of lakes. Anglers will find walleye, northern pike, and yellow perch in these waters.

The park itself is well-equipped for water recreation, with onsite kayak, canoe, and boat rentals available for those without their own equipment. A sandy beach, hiking trails, and picnic facilities make this a full-service recreational destination. The visitor center on the main park road can provide information about vehicle permits, camping reservations, and camper cabins. For paddlers interested in exploring the park's natural features, the unique bogwalk offers a close-up view of rare orchids and insect-eating plants in a spruce-tamarack bog, while the Chase Point Trail provides scenic overlooks of neighboring lakes.

A concrete boat ramp provides access to the 1,500 acre Lake Andrusia. Lake Andrusia is connected by the Mississippi River to the Cass Lake chain of lakes. Walleye, northern pike, and yellow perch are found in this lake.
