4 Night Family Vacation Package in a Canoer Cabin

Our new canoer cabins make a great base of operations for those looking for adventure in a more comfortable way.  These cabins provide for all your basic needs and give you the opportunity to explore the wilderness with a variety of day trips or hike.

Our pine paneled cabins have a double bed plus three twins, a refrigerator, overhead fan, modest heat, microwave, a nice screened in porch, a BBQ grill outside with a picnic table, and adjacent bath rooms in the main outfitter building.  You bring your own bedding, towels, etc.

We can plan day trips for you for canoeing or hiking or you can kick up your feet and enjoy the guided naturalists activities around the lodge.  We have 6 adjacent canoe routes, 10 hiking rails, horseback riding, kayaks at the waterfront, and two dining rooms.  This variety of exploring and adventure is great for those looking to rough it without the rigors of campout out in the wilderness in a tent. You are welcome to cook your own meals in your own BBQ/grill, or treat yourself to a meal in our Red Paddle Dining Room at Gunflint Lodge.

Includes: Canoer cabin accommodations, naturalist activities, hot showers, hiking trails, 1 one hour horseback ride, and 1 trip on the Towering Pines Canopy Tour. You provide your own bedding.

Gunflint Wilderness Naturalist ActivitiesHorseback trail rides at gunflint

Our summer naturalist program has always been a big part of what makes Gunflint special. We know what a treasure we have here in our woods, waters, and wildlife, and we make it a point to give our guests an opportunity to experience some of these wonders firsthand. Guided hikes and excursions to places of exceptional scenery, historical significance, and areas known to be productive habitat for wildlife are among the many activities offered daily on a rotating basis. Most are designed for "kids" of all ages, but we have a few that are specifically designed with children in mind.

Activities are offered June 1st - September 2nd. Each week's schedule includes a variety of these activities.
