White Sand Lake
White Sand Lake in the Lac du Flambeau/Boulder Junction area is one of the most complete lakes in Northern Wisconsin.
It combines size (over 1,200 acres), clear blue water, strong depth, beautiful shoreline character, and relatively low development density. The result is a lake that feels expansive yet peaceful. Recreational pressure stays reasonable, and long stretches of shoreline remain wild.
While its numbers are strong on paper, what truly sets White Sand apart is its overall feel. It is consistently one of the top lakes recommended to buyers looking for a high-quality, long-term hold in the Northwoods.

The Lac Du Flambeau Bike Route runs past the west side of White Sand Lake on Pokegma Lake Trail. It offers two loop lengths (depending whether you go around Flambeau Lake or Pokegama Lake) of 7 and 11 miles from the starting point in downtown Lac Du Flambeau. There are bathroom available at the starting point (which is the middle if you're coming from White Sand Lake). The route is a road route so it isn't a perfect biking option, but it is a marked route so drivers should be more aware of your presence than if you were on a typical back road. With some road riding, nearby trails are also available in Manitowish Waters and Boulder Junction.
This is a summary based on available information.
White Sand’s clear, deep water supports walleyes, smallmouth and largemouth bass, pike, and panfish, with good structure for quality fish. Anglers typically work rocky points, bars, and deeper breaks with jigs, rigs, and deep‑running crankbaits, focusing on low‑light periods and cooler seasons for walleyes and larger predators. The undeveloped stretches also offer excellent paddling and wildlife viewing for those who prefer exploring shorelines over chasing fish. It’s widely viewed as a “dream lake” for buyers willing to wait for the right property.
