Phalen Beach is a well-maintained beach on the west shore of the lake. The beach opens for swimming on Memorial Day weekend, in common with many other Minnesota beaches. Lifeguards are present at the weekends in early summer, then all week during the school summer vacation.

A sand volleyball court is on the beach.

After the beach, you are back where you started.
