The village of Grand Lake Stream and it surrounding area has long been known to be a fisherman's and sightseer's paradise and of the most sought after destinations in the state.

Anglers start fishing West Grand Lake in May for all three species and the good fishing continues to the end of the open-water fishing season. The Grand Lake Beach House is located just a short distance away from some of the lake's prime fishing grounds and it's also situated only 4 miles away from the world renowned landlocked salmon fishery of Grand Lake Stream.
