Hillside Beach

Hillside Beach is the insiders' secret tip.

It has a huge sandy beach with dunes that separate the lake from the big lagoon. The lagoon is great for fishing, boating or water skiing.

During the fur trading expeditions of the Voyageurs the lagoon was part of a portage for traveling between the Winnipeg River and Lake Winnipeg en route from French eastern Canada to the Red River Valley, avoiding the long often choppy route around Elk Island.
