Bear Creek Trail NW, Lot#W002 , Brandon, MN 56315(Douglas County)

Chippewa Lake, more commonly called “Big Chip,” is located just NW of Garfield in the Alexandria Lakes Area, approximately a 2-hour drive up I-94 from the NW metro. This lot has about 150 feet of lakeshore, is 1.8+ acres, and is the absolute last lot on the dead-end asphalt road giving it the ultimate in privacy with no vehicle traffic going past your lot. The lot is elevated in its setting, allowing for panoramic vista views of Big Chip Lake. The natural terrain of the slope to the lake allows terracing and a tram to access the water. It is also orientated, facing the lake to the North, allowing you to enjoy the summer sunrise and sunset. Big Chip is a recreationaldevelopment lake which means that yes, it has a development along its shores, but it also has areas of lakeshore that aren’t developed. It is naturally elongated and fairly large, with just under 1,200 acres. It has an average depth of 24 feet, a maximum depth of just under 100 feet, and a fishing structure all over the place, is putting it mildly. According to the 2016-2026 MN DNR Fisheries Management Plan for the lake, at the time of publication, the average clarity of Big Chip was just over 11 feet. Even though natural reproduction does occur, the lake's primary management has focused on sustaining the popular walleye fishery through stocking. Not a “walleye guy”? No worries. Big Chip also has other fish species, including Largemouth Bass, Northern, Sunfish, Crappie, and Perch. This is an extremely rare opportunity! So, if you are looking for a lake lot to build your dream home or family cabin getaway on not only a lake that is a fantastic fishery but has good water quality, then give us a shout, and we’d love to discuss this “Big Chip” lot in further detail!
