Northwoods Vacations
Lakeside fireplace cabins, two dining rooms, guided naturalist activities, horseback riding, canoeing, boating, hiking, fishing, and our new canopy tour.
Gunflint is ready to welcome you
What a beautiful spring this has been with many sunny days, crystal clear lakes, and all the hiking trails are in great shape- with the snow gone and no bugs out. Now that the ice has been off the lakes for several weeks the spring fishing will probably start off with a bang (the walleye and lake trout season opens May 12th). The lake trout are in shallow water feeding so they should be an easy catch. The walleye have spawned and are back in the lakes schooling up and will be in the warmer bays getting ready to feed. The smallmouth bass will probably be on their beds very soon, so interested fishermen will be able to do some successful casting in the shallows.
We have our docks all hooked up and the boats and motors are ready. We are adding a new play area this summer for the kids--a tree house, swings, slides, etc. We are building it just off the east end of the lodge patio on the lake side of the wood fired bake oven.

Thank you. Just back from the dog lovers weekend: we loved the food, the fantastic and friendly staff, seeing a million stars, almost as many deer and hearing the wolves howl. wow! also the sled dogs!! Thanks for the unforgettable weekend.
Sue and I invite you to relax in one of our lakeside fireplace cabins, feast in our dining rooms, and play in our outdoors. A vacation to the Gunflint highlands of northern Minnesota is unique. The area is remote and pristine, while it abounds with deer, moose, eagles, beaver, and much more. Our northwoods, just 6 hours north of the Twin Cities, continues to exist in a time of urban sprawl and expanding suburbs. Words alone cannot do it justice and the only way to understand the Gunflint area is by experiencing it first hand. Here at Gunflint moose encounters and deer sightings are more common than a visit by your neighbors.
It would be our pleasure to welcome you and your family to Gunflint Lodge.
Bruce and Sue Kerfoot, your hosts
