Here in the Land of 10,000 Lakes, there are hundreds of resorts that are perfect for planning a weekend getaway. Some stand out thanks to unique amenities, like Ludlow’s Island Resort and its treehouse cabin. Others are special because they’re far off the beaten track, like the five resorts on Oak Island in Minnesota’s Northwest Angle. Though these spots are well-known, there are plenty of other off-the-beaten-track stays all across Minnesota. One of the best is Troje’s Resort, voted Best Fishing Resort in Minnesota by WCCO viewers. This place has it all, and it’s the perfect place to stay during the May fishing opener and beyond. Here’s what you need to know about this fantastic Minnesota fishing resort:

Troje's Resort is in Richville, Minnesota. This little town is in Otter Tail County, in northwestern Minnesota. This county has more lakes than every other county in the United States!
