White Sand Lake
White Sand Lake is a great lake. It's a big lake with a lot of bays and character, the water is clear (13 ft clarity) with great color, and it has some great walleye fishing. White Sand is 10-15 minutes from Lac Du Flambeau and is only about 20 minutes away from downtown Minocqua depending on what part of the lake you are starting from. There are a fair amount of big tracts of land around the lake which keeps the home density to a lower level (17 owners per mile of shoreline). The size of White Sand Lake (over 1200 acres) combined with the availability of many other lakes in the area keeps recreational boat traffic down and allows for a nice peaceful setting to enjoy the Northwoods. This lake is one of my favorites in the Northwoods. For more information on White Sand Lake you can check out my Blog Post.

Biking/Walking/Ski Trails:
The Powell Trail System is about a 15 minute drive from White Sand Lake. The Powell Trail System is a series of trails through the woods and offers loops of 1.5, 2, 4.5 and 7 miles. The trails also serve as cross country skiing and snow shoeing trails.
The Lac Du Flambeau Bike Route runs past the west side of White Sand Lake on Pokegma Lake Trail. It offers two loop lengths (depending whether you go around Flambeau Lake or Pokegama Lake) of 7 and 11 miles from the starting point in downtown Lac Du Flambeau. There are bathroom available at the starting point (which is the middle if you're coming from White Sand Lake). The route is a road route so it isn't a perfect biking option, but it is a marked route so drivers should be more aware of your presence than if you were on a typical back road. With some road riding, nearby trails are also available in Manitowish Waters and Boulder Junction.
