The Lake
The village of Sandy Lake has always relied on the lake for much of its recreation and economy. Campers from western Manitoba began coming to enjoy the outdoors at the sandy beach in the early 1900s.
Since then, cottages have replaced tents and visitors have many more events and points of interests to see than early in the last century. Pleasure boating, fishing, swimming and tubing are among the summer activities that are enjoyed by cottagers, village residents and visitors.
In the summer, Sandy Lake's population grows and businesses benefit from the influx of people due to the beauty and enjoyment to be had because of the lake.
In 2016, a new floating dock was installed to replace the old pier. This dock is not for fishing as a smaller fishing dock is scheduled to be put in when the funds have been raised.
The beach was refurbished with new sand in 2016. To keep our beach in good shape for visitors we ask that pets are kept off the sandy area of the beach. This is for the protection of children and adults who are swimming and children who play in the sand. Thank you kindly for your help in this matter.
