Red Rock Lake is a great Boundary Waters Canoe Area lake to set up a base camp in. A tow across Saganaga Lake takes you to the 10 rod portage into Red Rock, a non-motorized BWCA lake. Within minutes you can paddle to a wilderness campsite on a gorgeous canoe country lake.
Red Rock is an average sized BWCA lake of about 353 acres in size. With eight wilderness campsites scattered throughout the BWCA lake there is plenty of room for everyone. It's easy to get off of the beaten path(route between the two portages) by camping in one of the private bays.
It's a beautiful Boundary Waters lake with pine trees of all kinds gracing the shoreline. Granite outcroppings, a variety of elevation changes and lots of wildlife make Red Rock a terrific choice for a Boundary Waters base camp. Moose are often seen in the back bays as eagles soar overhead.
Boundary Waters fishing is at its best in Red Rock Lake. All four species are present including northern pike, smallmouth bass, walleye and lake trout. The only fishing competition you'll find in this canoe country lake will be the loons.
When you're pressed for time, traveling with small children or just don't feel like paddling and portaging think about setting up a Boundary Waters base camp in Red Rock. It's a quiet lake with over half of the campsites almost always available. A wilderness canoe trip you'll love minus the challenges of paddling and portaging across multiple Boundary Waters Canoe Area lakes.
