Reunion cabin 14 is wonderful. So many gathering spaces, rooms, beds, fridges, tables. Large fire pit. Privacy. Highly recommend.

One of my favorite places to go for the weekend. Nothing is ever perfect but Camp Holiday set their sights on something simple and nice and they got pretty darn close.

We just got back from an unforgettable weekend at Camp Holiday Resort on Turtle Lake, and it was absolutely perfect! We stayed in one of the campsites with our Ice Castle, and the setup couldn’t have been better—spacious, clean, and right by the beautiful lake. The highlight of our trip was renting a pontoon and spending the entire day out on the water fishing. Turtle Lake is gorgeous and so peaceful—we caught fish, soaked up the sunshine, and made some amazing memories. The resort is very well kept, with friendly staff who made everything easy from start to finish. You can tell they really care about making sure guests have the best experience possible. Between the great campsite, the pontoon rental, and the unbeatable lake views, we couldn’t have asked for a better weekend. We’re already looking forward to coming back again soon!

We stayed with our 3 small children and had a great time. This is a gem of a location, quieter and better for kids to have fun than being on Mille Lacs. Bathrooms and accommodations were nice and the other campers are very friendly.

Family friendly and very comfortable. Good swimming, nice gift shop, and a variety of camper needs at the shop. Thank you for welcoming us into the family.
