Yes, stayed with them last Oct, 2010. Nice resort. I do not recall but I do not think they had a beach. Nice lodge/restauarnat/bar & clean cabin. Not the fanciest cabin but it was adequate. Very nice people.
April 5, 2011 at 2:20 pm #954165I have not stayed there but many times I have refueled the boat and enjoyed a cool one.
Seems to be a nice place and the service has been good the 3-4 times we have stopped.

April 5, 2011 at 3:00 pm #954190I have stayed there the last couple of years, and I have been very happy with them. The cabins I have been in were nice.

Thats not what I wanted to hear, I just book a cabin at the end of June for a week.

Nice location for getting around the lake should the weather rear it’s ugly head, which can happen on Rainy!
You will have a wonderful time.
April 5, 2011 at 10:01 pm #954340Spent a week there last summer. One word, awesome!
April 6, 2011 at 5:59 am #954427Sha-Sha resort has a simply breathtaking view of Rainy Lake resting on the edge of Voyageurs National Park. The cabins are nice and the bar/restaurant is a must see attraction with the multitudes of decks. Truly a summer “Hot Spot” over looking the cool blue waters of Rainy lake!! Both my daughter and wife will be working out there part-time this summer. My 15 year old girl will be the “Nacho Girl” LOL!! The “Fishing Queen” does some waitress work there a few nights a week!! I suggest you book early………Or for that matter book for next year as they book fast. I do a lot of guiding out of both Thunderbird Lodge and Sha-Sha resort. Both very nice locations with very nice people!! Between Rainy Lake Houseboats for those seeking the awesome Houseboat experience, or land based resorts such as Sha-Sha Resort and Thunderbird Lodge…….You can’t go wrong!! They are highly recommended!!
Might want to order one of the infamous Long Islands from Sha-Sha!!

July fishing can be the most consistent walleye fishing of the entire open water season. Walleyes are concentrated in the months of July and August and due to our cold/stained waters the normal “Dog Days” of summer are normally hot action on the big lake!! With that being said 220,000 acres can be a bit intimidating and there of course is a lot of dead water to eliminate. Get your cabin booked up!!!
October 9, 2011 at 9:33 am #1000162Just returned from Sha Sha Resort last week. Bad experience with the cabin we rented. Electrical surges occurred our entire stay which left lights flickering on & off, appliances shutting off and bulbs burning out on different lamps. It was a hassel watching the direct tv in the evening because it would go out numerous times, and then there was the 5 minute process of waiting for it to reboot. Notified owners several times, but nothing was done. Very frustrating week, but the fishing was decent.
