I myslef always stay at WestBay resort, they have reasonable winter rates of $75-100 a night depeding on how many people in the cabin. Nice size cabins, cable tv, full kitchen. A little further out of town but nice and relaxing.

Spirit Lake Casino and Hotel, Woodland Resort, and the Great American Inn are some good choices.

My girlfriend and I are planning on coming up for a weekend in the middle of March. This will be our first trip to Devils Lake. She wants to stay at the casino. Do they have a place to clean fish?? I was thinking that Woodland or Great American would be better suited for icefishermen. Maybe I'm wrong....

Yes, they have a indoor fish cleaning facility and fish cleaning service, Ice house rentals, bait & tackle, also you can rent augers and vexilars if needed.

I might be heading up there in a few weeks for my annual ice trip up there. We will be staying at my buddies uncles place probably though.

For those of you new to Devils Lake, a little tip, don't be afraid to dig back into the trees, or just outside of them. You can actually go quite a ways back into the flooded trees and still be fishing 10-12' or more. You can catch some real nice fish back there, summer and winter. I remember one day in the summer where the wind was so bad (our kicker motor wasn't working to boot), so we eased our way into the flooded timber and tied off for lunch. We didn't spend even 5 minutes back there with a slip bobber/leech rig and landed a 25.5" walleye. In the next hour we caught 12 more between 3 people, ranging from 15" to 18". This was around noon-1 p.m. not to mention. Simple case and point, don't be afraid to move into the timber!!!!

I was fishing in hastings last month and a guy came down say he was going up yonder, and said he was taking an amtrack. it was like 400$ round trip and it paid for food and bed and what not. Can anybody tell me if he was right, because for $400 thats not too bad?
