Well today is the 30th of April and last year the Ice on Big Sandy Lake went out on the 20th of April, It always goes off of Bill-horn bay last as it is the deepest bay on the lake. I was out this past weekend on my snowmobile and saw just hundreds of people fishing out on the lake this past weekend and ice conditions were favorable to driving on still. We have anywhere from 18" to 3' of Ice but................. do not let that fool you just down the bay from me when I was out on Sunday, I saw open water in front of the Prarie River only a 10' hole but it was open.

Minnesota National Golf Course is the hottest Golf Course in Northern Minnesota. McGregor Minnesota is the Host City for this Awesome Golf Course. I must say as a Realtor/Broker I am very happy about having such a nice place so close to my stomping grounds of Big Sandy Lake. I myself love to golf and since we all know Minnesota has more golfers per capita than any other state in the Country I am as I said earlier very pleased that such an establishment is just down the road a couple of miles from the shores of Big Sandy Lake and Lake Minnewawa too.

This course has 300+ home sites that the local agents have access too as far as Selling Lots, Town-homes and Single family homes too. Prices start from the low $200's and go up from there. The course will have 27 holes to play on and is in the process of having a 18,000 square foot facility that will have fine dining as well as a Irish pub and cuisine, and way to much to talk about in one posting.

The other part that makes this such a great asset to the community is it is accessible by the water from Big Sandy Lake, Can you Imagine having Lunch or breakfast at Big Sandy Lodge and setting a Tee Time and then boating over on a pontoon sipping on your favorite beverage? I will let you know how that goes this summer as I plan on having some of my Investor friends up to look at this course and Development this Summer. Stay tuned for pictures I will post them on my site and my Blog! I truly love my neighborhood Big Sandy Lake
