Eagle Sands on Mille Lacs: Sugar Sand Beach on the Peaceful North End

Eagle Sands is on the peaceful north end of Mille Lacs, situated between Malmo and Bergstrom Bay. Dubbed the "gold coast" of Mille Lacs for its wide, sugar sand beaches and shallow lake bottom, we offer a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom house that offers all the modern amenities to comfortably host a variety of guests and occasions.

Enjoy a sunset drink on the large deck with an expansive, ocean-like view of the big lake, or cozy up to the backyard fire pit. Go for a long walk along the wide, sandy beach, or snuggle up on the big, comfy couch with a good book or movie. Whatever your tastes--fishing, swimming, kayaking, biking, hunting, golfing, casino, sailing, snowmobiling, walking, running, ATV-trails--the Mille Lacs area pretty much suits it all.

You'll find everything you need at Eagle Sands on Mille Lacs to make your getaway comfortable and memorable. A well-appointed kitchen makes it easy to cook up a family feast, or head out to one of the local restaurants or bars for a relaxing evening out. Named for the majestic eagles that frequently grace our skies in the summer months, Eagle Sands offers the perfect place for family and friends alike to decompress and reconnect.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a patio. There's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms and a dining area. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fenced private yard, and a coffee maker.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house is great, wonderful views of the lake. The home was stocked well, the towels were well above the norm, plenty of dishes and supplies in the kitchen.
