A real Northwoods gem. superb hospitality. Nice and quiet. Great for tent camping, RV, and rustic cabins.

It's been about 4 years since we made the 4 1/2 hour trip up to Grand Marais for our long awaited sleigh ride. We scheduled it in December for mid February and it couldn't come soon enough. From the moment we pulled up, everyone was very friendly and laid back. They made us feel like family. It wasn't a 5 or 10 minute ride like typical sleigh rides...it was long enough to really enjoy it. If I recall correctly, it was close to an hour, which was plenty long for 15 degree weather. They gave us blankets to keep warm and stopped in the peaceful darkness to star gaze for a few minutes where the sky is clearer than I've ever seen it anywhere else. While the sleigh ride was an amazing trip that we will remember for years to come, perhaps the most memorable part was coming back to their cottage-like home where they made home made hot chocolate to warm up. They welcomed us into their home and visited like we were old friends or relatives. I'll never forget the warm, cozy and relaxing feeling that they provided and we will definitely go back if they are still doing it!

A family favorite for years. Unlike anywhere else, beautiful woodsy terrain envelopes two pristine lakes, with camp/horse/RV sites aplenty and bunkhouses/cabins to boot. Remote and yet 5 mins away from the Trail Center for any forgotten essentials.

Beautiful surroundings, rustic and lovely and the family makes you feel like you are family. The bunkhouses are simple yet extremely comfortable, the sky on a clear night is amazing, you can actually see the milky way belt pretty clearly, the plant life is a picker, identifier or photographer enthusiasts dream and from what I was told I had just missed a moose sighting. The meals are fantastic and served family style in a dining hall where they ring an old fashioned dinner bell. Anyone looking for a unique friendly rustic outing should check this place out for an experience they will remember.
