Big Sand Lake Lodge

Went on a moose hunt in 2019, and they have the moose! The guides know the area and know how to find moose... so the hunt in and of itself was 4 stars. That being said, everything else about the trip (communication, logistics, lodging, meals, etc) was a cluster! My group got halfway to Big Sand and were wondering if our hunt was even going to happen because nobody was responding to any communication. Pretty nerve racking considering the money spent to go on a hunt like this. Hopefully the tribe that owns the lodge finds a good solid manager and they clean up the logistics and put some mo eh back into their lodge and outposts, then this place would be amazing.

Not very friendly staff

I've been to Big Sand Lake Lodge twice, once for fishing, once for moose hunting. Both trips were fabulous. Fantastic fishing for lake trout, northern pike, walleyes and arctic grayling. The lake is 70 miles long and virtually unfished. All catch and release except for what you eat for shore lunch so the big ones are all still there. The lodge and cabins are exceptional. Great food, great native guides. The moose hunting in their moose. The size of the racks were unbelievable--52" average with one 60". I'm going back next year for sure.
