My husband and I recently spent 4 nights at the one-bedroom cabin at Indian Mounds Resort. We wanted a place we could relax in between fishing, and a place that would welcome our dog. The cabin was clean and comfortable, and had everything we needed to cook dinner and relax. The bed was also really comfy, and the other campers were really friendly. We enjoyed walks around the resort with our dog, sunset over the lake, and an afternoon paddleboating excursion. We fished in Pelican Lake some, but also ventured to some other nearby lakes (Eagle Lake, Middle Lake, and Lake Moses). Jolly Ann Lake was next on our list, but we ran out of time this trip. :) We caught our limit of crappie two of the days, and had a great time! The owners are also really friendly and accommodating. We highly recommend a stay here!

Very good! We will come again! The owners are great people and the facilities are good. We really enjoyed our time here on Pelican Lake and the ability to continue our annual tradition of fishing on Memorial Day Weekend!

Great place to relax have fun for the entire family. The Host are great, friendly and live on the site for easy accessibility. Cabins are clean and spacious and they have boats to rent for fishing and or a nicer pontoon for family fun. It's dog friendly and kids approved. They have a swimming beach with flotation devices you can swim out to and hang out. A nice fish cleaning house for your catch and get this, visitors get to camp right at beach front. Everyone is welcome so pack the kids, dogs.. Bring your fishing poles, swim trunks they provide the perfect location for a fun weekend or longer stay you make up your own Adventures, memories and stories to share around the camp fire.. Enjoy.

Best family place you could possibly stay at. Great staff. Clean resort. Big lake, never fish in the same spot twice. Nice beach sun sets to top it off.
