Brainerd Resorts and Lodges with Arts and Crafts

A Place that Offers Everything but the Crowds...

Lost Lake Lodge is an unforgettable escape, situated on two lakes in the Minnesota Northwoods. The lodge rests between its own private, non-motorized Lost Lake and the Upper Gull Lake Narrows, a paradise for fishing and boating. Here nature trails wind through ancient burial grounds; you can spot deer and over 44 bird species. Venture out in a canoe, water bike or playak among the loons. A spectacular restaurant serves food made from the freshest ingredients - including stone ground spring wheat and corn from the Lost Lake Grist Mill. The genuine combination of personal attention, nature, available golf and spa services and warm accommodations make this place a truly magical getaway. Learn More...

It's Gonna Be a Grand Getaway...

In 1919, Grand View Lodge was simply grand. Today, it's a bastion of excellence for any getaway. Whether it's romance, golf, family time or just a little relaxation that you're after, Grand View will accommodate you down to the last detail. If golf is your style, three championship courses and a nine-hole resort course await. For rejuvenation, the Glacial Waters Spa is by far the finest in the state. And if you love rustic luxury, this is it. From the Main Lodge and its 65 cabins - many situated near the 1500-foot natural beach on beautiful Gull Lake - to splendid golf villas, the resort is a perfect combination of soaring designs, historical touches and meticulous attention to detail.

Just two hours north of the Twin Cities on the 1,305-acre Fish Trap Lake lies Campfire Bay Resort. Rediscover that nostalgic old-time resort feeling at Campfire Bay, whose intimate environment invites you to become part of the family. Here you can canoe in the stillness of the morning, fish for trophy walleye, northerns and crappies, play volleyball, golf on the nearby 18-hole championship course or partake in fun-filled organized activities for kids and families. One- to four-bedroom cabins can be as secluded or as much a part of the action as you’d like; each rest 15 to 150 feet from the water with incredible lake views. End each day with an evening bonfire and yummy campfire donut! Learn More...

Four seasons of family fun make The Quarterdeck Resort an excellent spot for any family getaway! Scenic Gull Lake has miles of shoreline to explore, fish to catch, and trails to hike, yet in calm Birch Bay you'll feel worlds away from it all. You'll be across the street from golfing. And in winter, tour the area on cross-country skis or snowshoes. Escape the cold in the recreation center's game room or by the TV. The Boathouse Eatery & Bar is a great place to refuel with a wide selection of delicious international and American food. From luxurious lakeside villas to cozy vacation homes, The Quarterdeck Resort provides all the comforts of home, with a view you won’t find anywhere else! Learn More...
