If you are looking for a luxurious place to stay, this may not be it. But, you are looking for extremely nice proprietors in a lodge/cabin in the middle of nature- You have found your place in the Old Northwoods Lodge! My family and I were enchanted by this area and this lodge. We travel often, but few places we... More

Arrived to find the place overgrown with weeds and generally in a state of disrepair! We attempted to make the best of it since we had driven a long way to stay here--and we had nowhere else to go. Our cabin was dirty with very little room. Screens were either not on the windows or were in such bad shape... More

After several trips to the Gunflint Trail in recent times, we have yet to find this this place open . We have good memories of delicious meals here in the past, but they seem to be only marginally still in business. Repeated phone calls mostly went unanswered; there isn't an answering machine to leave a message. This was a beautiful... More

Do not be fooled by the ranking here and the planted praise. We trusted the same and were very disappointed. The lodge has rusty old scaffolding around it. Our cabin had a porch that hadn't been painted in decades, with holes in the siding to let Gunflint Trail flies and mosquitos in whenever they wished to be there. Weeds and... More

I can't begin to say enough of our experience at Old Northwood’s Lodge. I spent one night there with my teenaged children and was immediately impressed by the Lodge Owner, Gale who welcomed us and made us feel like we were coming home. The Lodge itself is breathtaking and a sight to behold and must be viewed with one's own... More

Our host (Gale & Kelley) were fantastic, they were available at all times but also let your stay be totally private. The food at the lodge is 5 star, we could barely walk away from the table! If you’re looking for the... More

This log cabin lodge was a welcoming sight to the group of six traveling into the Boundary Water Canoe Area. We stayed in the three available rooms inside Old Northwoods Lodge the night before departing into the BWCA and the night we got back. The rooms were the perfect size for two, very cozy with comfortable beds. The highlight of... More

The Old Northwoods Inn is a beautiful place to stay. The owner Gale & manager Kelly make you feel like you're part of the family. The lodge has a beautiful 2 story fireplace that is open from the lobby area to the dinning room. They serve great breakfasts & dinners are unbeliveably excellent. We stayed in cabin # 1. It... More
