Arcadia Lodge

Since 1922, Arcadia Lodge has been a great Minnesota destination - it's your turn to discover it! There is never a lack of excitement on the shores of Big Turtle Lake - any time of year. Snowmobile trails begin nearby and the lake offers many bays to explore in the summer! Each cabin includes a 14-foot boat and dock space, plus there are a variety of other watercraft for rent. Your kids will love climbing all over the Saturn, trying out the water slide and taking the waterbikes for a ride. The whole family can enjoy kayaks and canoes or cast a line for smallmouth bass in the lake. The lodge features a game room, restaurant and three new rooms ideal for guests just staying a few nights.

Beach

At Arcadia Lodge the beach is your playground! You won't believe the fun you'll have in Big Turtle Lake with kayaks, waterbikes, trampolines & water jungle gyms like Saturn and the Rock. If you prefer to stay dry, you'll love the sandy beach, play area and a fire pit perfect for roasting up s'mores!

Family

While Arcadia Lodge offers plenty of classic lake fun for single families, family reunions reach a whole new level of excitement! Stay together under one roof in some of the biggest cabins in the area. All year round you'll find adventure for everyone from snowmobiling to hooking smallmouth bass!

Fishing

Fishing on Big Turtle Lake is easy and exciting with free boat and dock space for each cabin! Just rent a motor - or if you're more particular, any of a range of boats - and head into a slew of bays known for smallmouth bass. Bring your catch back to your kitchen or grill and enjoy a fresh dinner!

Hunting

Arcadia Lodge is the perfect place to spend opening weekend of deer season or with a group hunting for grouse! You'll be close to state and federal lands, including the Chippewa National Forest, teeming with whitetails. With cabins that sleep up to 30, even a large hunting party will be comfortable.

Lake

With each cabin you'll enjoy a 14-ft. boat and dock space - just rent a motor and Big Turtle Lake is yours to explore! If you prefer to stay on land, the playground and beach are popular places to relax. Kids will love the abundant water toys and Mondays and Wednesdays feature tubing and hot dogs!
