Rustic cabins, peaceful setting, wonderful restaurant. The fishing was excellent on the chain of lakes. Bring your passport so you can try the Canadian fishing as well. We brought our adult children and they had a fantastic time as well.

Jerry, Brenda, troy, butch, Justin, Amanda are amazing. I have been going since I was 15, I turned 45 this week. My wife and I went here instead of Hawaii and we'd do it again if possible.

Great lodge with wonderful food at dinner and breakfast. Reasonable prices. Quiet dining area. Good bar with music on many summer weekends. Cabins are nice and all offer front row seat on Crane Lake, gateway to Voyageur's National Park in Northern MN.

.Hard to believe that such beauty exists in the midwest.. Nelson's is on the edge of both the Boundary Water Canoe Wilderness and Voyagers National Park. Voyagers is accessably by boat so if you don't bring your own be sure to rent one and and ask the staff for directions. Chef Chris prepares some of the best food I've eaten... More
