LOON LAKE LODGE

At Loon Lake Lodge you are surrounded by the unspoiled wilderness of the Minnesota north woods. The Gunflint Trail area, where we are located, has changed little over the years. It is much the same as it was over a hundred years ago. The calls of loons, the hoot of owls, the eerie howl of a wolf on a moonlit night and the breeze whispering through the trees will take you back to a much simpler and less hurried time.

Ice conditions improving!!!

Looking out the Shack window

Well last night we were at 21 below zero!!!  That should add to the ice thickness.  It can't happen soon enough because Gunflint Lake and Loon Lake are two of the favorite lake trout lakse in the area.  Both are easy for people to get to and year in and year out people have success.  Up to this point we haven't seen fishermen pushing their luck and that is a good thing.  The smaller lakes have had good ice covering but with Gunflint and Loon both over 200 feet deep it just takes longer and the warmer than normal temps haven't helped.  Now if we can just get a good snow storm.
