About This Access Site
Big Dardis Lake is a 140-acre lake located in Price County, Wisconsin, offering public boat access via a designated landing. With a maximum depth of 23 feet, the lake supports a diverse fishery including musky, northern pike, walleye, largemouth bass, and panfish. Paddlers should note that water clarity is low, which is typical for many northern Wisconsin lakes.

The access site is conveniently located near Sailor Lake Campground, a rustic facility on the northwestern shores of Sailor Lake that offers camping, picnic areas, and additional recreational opportunities in the region. For specific details about hours of operation, amenities, or current conditions at the boat landing, contact the managing agency at 715-762-2461. The area is accessible from Fifield by heading east on State Highway 70 for approximately 7 miles.
