Gunflint Lodge is an exhilarating touch of class and warm elegance on Minnesota’s North Shore. Families, fishermen and everyone in between will be captivated by this remote yet thoroughly accommodating beachfront lodge in the famous Northwoods. You’ll have your choice of adventures near the Canadian border - guided fishing and naturalist excursions, horseback riding, snowshoeing and, of course, canoeing in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area, the largest canoeing wilderness in the U.S. In winter, the Gunflint Trail thrives with 200km of cross country trails just outside your door. Elegant, romantic and spacious cabins and lake homes feature fireplaces, music systems and whirlpool spas.

All Inclusive

In any season, night or day, organized or on demand, Gunflint Lodge has an activity package for you. Take a guided day trip to the Boundary Waters. Hike, ski and watch wildlife by moonlight. Hear about legendary Great Lakes shipwrecks. It never ends…and it’s all included in your rate!

Family

If you’ve never heard of the Kerfoot family in this area, you will: they’ve been here for four generations, providing families like yours with adventures of a lifetime. You’ll love the hospitality here; let the lodge’s naturalist or guides take you on hikes, lake cruises, and much more.

Fishing

Gunflint Lodge works with the most expert guides; they know this area’s most coveted fishing spots - amazing lake trout, northern pike, smallmouth bass and walleye, some of the state’s largest, are right here in Gunflint Lake. Enjoy fishing all year – ice fishing is great from January to mid-March!

Lake

The lodge rests on the shores of Gunflint Lake, a combination of thrilling recreation, privacy and stunning beauty. You’ll find a peaceful beachfront here, and activities range from sandcastle building to fishing to water-skiing; all by itself, the lake is a source of year-round fun and relaxation.

Luxury

You don’t expect to find these pampered surroundings in the Northwoods: luxurious cabins and lake homes feature kitchens, saunas, washer/dryers and stunning, warm wood interiors. Even the privacy – there aren’t any telephones or TVs – adds to the unique feeling of comfort in the wilderness.

Romantic

At Gunflint Lodge, glistening waters, the sounds of the local wildlife and cabins with double Jacuzzis combine for a romantic getaway like you’ve never experienced. Many of the activities, such as hiking and horseback riding, are perfect for two; and two onsite restaurants offer culinary delights.
