We chose this resort for a multi family vacation and we had a wonderful time!!!! What impressed me the most was how friendly and hard working the staff was. At a time when many places are struggling to find workers, the staff here really went above and beyond to ensure we enjoyed a relaxed, stress free vacation. Loved the free, easy access to kayaks, paddle boards and paddle boat on a BEAUTIFUL lake. Great gathering spots in the lodge with fireplaces, and game tables. Something for people of all ages to enjoy! Would definitely vacation here again.

Great location. Great fishing. Wish the bar and restaurant were open. The manager and staff are very helpful, friendly, and accommodating. Rooms are clean and comfortable. Be prepared: no AC. This former Minnesota, now Florida boy would have liked AC, but nights were cool enough to get by. Numerous kayaks and paddle boards were a huge plus. Lodge lounge area was perfect: ping pong, darts, foosball. Just enough off the beaten path to be appreciated, but still close enough to Cook to be convenient.

Went for our first time last year in May, we were so excited to get away from Minneapolis during that time. Could not have picked a more perfect weekend to escape. We were told by the manager that they have a lot of return customers year after year, and I can definitely see why! The location is so beautiful and there is so much to do at the lodge or adventuring around the area. We went hiking on the Vermillion Gorge trail and it was just stunning, maybe a 20-30 minute drive away. Actually coming back up this upcoming weekend and we’ve been looking forward to it all summer! 10/10 recommend going

Lee made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived! The property had many cabins; However, my girlfriend and I stayed in the Eagle’s Nest suite in the main lodge. It has a GORGEOUS view of the lake! The lake is super clean - great for swimming, kayaking, and pedal boating. Unfortunately due to COVID-19, the restaurant/bar area was closed. They had informed us ahead of time, so we just brought our own food. There is a mini kitchen and gas grills outside to use for cooking as well. We were extremely impressed by the beauty and cleanliness of the lodge and property - now we know why this

Edit: New staff in place was very kind and worked with me to properly restore my refund from my canceled wedding after going through a lot of pain from the fall out.
I, myself, won’t be going to this resort again, but the new staff gave me hope that good people can still run the show.
Original: I was contracted with the Lodge to have a wedding there for several months. Now, 12 days before it, well into the pandemic and state requirements having been set in place for several months, I receive a letter from the owners that they can not hold our guests and that they hadn’t known a wedding was
