Family Wilderness Vacation

Family Package (staying in a bunkhouse here at Gunflint Outfitters)

Spectacular sunset enjoyed on a canoe trip in the bwca

Enjoy spectacular scenery on our Family Canoe Trip Package.

This wilderness vacation package is somewhere between a camping out trip and a luxury vacation at the lodge. You have a private rustic bunkhouse accommodation with nearby showers, canoes, guided daily naturalist activities, hiking trails, and your dinners in the Red Paddle Bistro. You bring your own bedding and manage your own breakfasts and lunches. This vacation gets your entire family into the wilderness on a fairly tame basis, with a dry secure base of operations to work from. We will be glad to plan any day canoe trips you would like and provide you with transportation to and from the appropriate starting point.

Includes: 5 nights accommodations in a bunkhouse, canoes, naturalist activities, and dinners in the Bistro. Also available, but not included in the package are boats, motors, horseback riding, breakfasts and lunches in the Bistro, and massages.

$165.00 per adult
$115.00 per child (ages 4 thru 12)

 


BWCA wilderness facts...

Eagle spotted on a family wilderness vacation.

It's not unusual to see eagles in the BWCA wilderness.

  • The BWCA is part of the Superior National Forest, named by the American Birding Conservancy as a Globally Important Birding Area.

  • There are 155 nesting species of birds in the Superior National Forest as well as a wealth of migrating birds, making it a birder’s paradise.

  • From May to June the Forest resounds with bird song as returning males sing to attract mates and define their territories.
