My dog and I stayed for a long weekend at Gunflint Lodge for a needed getaway from the Twin Cities. It was absolutely the perfect retreat for us. The drive through the Gunflint Trail to the property is so beautiful and the lodge property itself is fantastic. It is filled with hiking/skiing/snowmobile trails to explore. The main lodge is warm and cozy with the perfect lake view. The cabins are also wonderful. I stayed in Cabin 26 and enjoyed the jacuzzi tub as I watched the snowglobe-like weather outside. It was also nice to have a full kitchen, although I quickly realized how great the food was at the Lodge that I only used it to make coffee and tea. I also appreciated NOT having wifi in the cabin, but only in the main lodge. I think it really added to the enjoyment of my time here.
The staff are all super friendly- from making you the perfect peppermint vodka hot chocolate, recommending their out of this world walleye chowder, giving you tips on where to mayyybe see a moose, to providing guidance on which winter hiking trails are good options for a dachshund! I also indulged in a 1.5 hour massage which was fantastic - thanks Karli! Everyone was welcoming and helpful and you feel like you are visiting a family friend's cabin.
I am not a winter-lover, but being at Gunflint has never made me so happy in snow and 22 degree weather.
Thank you for your hospitality and being the respite Maddie and I needed! We will surely be back!

Very cool place if you're looking to get close and personal with nature! They have tons of hiking trails and are overlooking a lake that borders Canada, so you are able to get some great views as you walk on the trails. The cabins are well kept up and the owners were very nice. It's always great to see owners who care about their business and the customer's experience! Also, be sure to visit with their activities coordinator John. He will blow you away with all the details and information on a wide array of subjects that would make even Alex Tribec jealous! Food in the lodge was quite tasty (try the walleye chowder) as well. Highly recommended!
