Big Rock Resort

 Big Rock Resort is located in Horseshoe Bay facing the big part of Leech.  Or the big lake as it is often referred to.  

This is another one of those great old resorts that is still operating.  It has been updated a lot, just a beautiful looking resort.  The grounds are beautiful as well as the cabins.  They also have a swimming pool there.  You can find it at https://www.bigrockresort.com/

I believe that it has gone "condo" where people own the cabins and they are rented out by the resort. It appears that they are open year around as well. 

There is great fishing at Big Rock Reef, of course located out front of Big Rock Resort.  I've caught a LOT of walleyes on that reef.

As always, I'd love to hear your stories.  

From the late 1950's early 60's Chamber of Commerce map:

BIG ROCK RESORT - Modern family resort.  New Lodge.  Recreation room, ping pong, shuffleboard.  Sheltered boat harbor where your boat is ready and safe.  Dock.  Fish cleaning.  Mr. and Mrs Ed Kotula, Walker, Minn.  Tel. KI 7-1066

This picture is from a post card that was sent in 1966.
