Jun. 6—FLAG ISLAND, Minn. — A longtime resort at Flag Island on Minnesota’s Northwest Angle has been purchased and again is open for business.
Justin and Tanya Ferguson, who own Cyrus Resort on the south shore of Lake of the Woods, have purchased the resort on Flag Island, which is now known as Cyrus’s Flag Island Resort, according to a news release from Lake of the Woods Tourism.
“Tanya, myself and our family are super excited to bring the same level of excellence of Cyrus Resort on the south end of Lake of the Woods to the new Cyrus’s Flag Island Resort up at the Northwest Angle,” Justin Ferguson said. “As a family owned resort, we believe in forming long-term relationships with our valued guests and take pride in extending that same culture to our Flag Island location.”
Cyrus’s Flag Island Resort offers a variety of accommodations and services, including 25 cabins with amenities, hotel rooms and a full-service bar and restaurant. The resort has an extensive protected harbor with new docks and plenty of space for both private boats and charter boats.
“The Northwest Angle is a premier destination for fishing, exploring, birding and simply the sheer beauty of the 14,552 islands that begin in this area,” said Joe Henry, executive director, Lake of the Woods Tourism.
“From a fishing perspective, this area is tough to beat throughout both the open water and ice fishing seasons. It has earned a world class reputation and is stellar for walleyes, muskies, smallmouth bass, crappies and pike, just to name a few. Having the Fergusons invest in the Angle and make this kind of commitment with Cyrus’s Flag Island Resort makes the entire area stronger. I know the Northwest Angle resorts and the entire community are excited to welcome them to the Angle.”
The resort is open for business and taking reservations. For more information, check out the resort’s new website at
