Bordering the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness, and almost completely surrounded by the Superior National Forest. It’s as close as you can get to a wilderness experience while enjoying unrestricted access and the amenities and comforts of a first-class resort area.
Characterized by rocky shoreline and sandy beaches; hundreds of small protected bays and large expanses of open water; inhabited areas with services you need and miles of undeveloped forested lakeshore.
People come back year after year primarily for the fishing. Vermilion has features for fishermen not found on other large lakes. There are hundreds of islands, bays and coves; sunken islands, drop-offs and reefs provide hidden habitat; the lake is well-marked for safe navigation: and provides a true Northwoods fishing experience.
