But when my boyfriend's fam books Clear Lake Resort for their fishing/hunting/very Minnesotan excursions, I am relieved and tag along. We recently stayed in Deer Cabin. It has three bedrooms, 4 beds, a damn-near-full kitchen, full bathroom (stand-up shower), living room area with electric fireplace, satellite TV, a deck with charcoal grill, and fire pit. And the kicker, it was $85/night! It sleeps 6-7 comfortably so that could be ~$15/pp/night! Resort amenities include a main lodge w foosball, pool table, board games, wifi and TV. There's a fish cleaning house, basketball hoop, volleyball, and several hiking/ snowmobiling trails too. And since it's right on Clear Lake, you can bring non-motorized activities, and they might even have some for rent. The owners live on the property and their family is so kind and accommodating. And we love their dogs! (They will be playful w you outside but never enter the cabins). Not everything is top-of-the-line and updated, but it's the perfect place for outdoors-lovers for the right price, location, and hospitality.

We stayed in the bear cabin and almost couldn't bare to leave (pun definitely intended)! The cabin was a nice two bedroom with a lake view. If you are looking for a REALLY FANCY place I would not recommend staying here. However if you are looking for REALLY NICE accommodations and great service at an exceptionally affordable rate, look no further. The photos on the website do not lie and we were very happy with our cabin. *The water has a sulfur-like smell to it, but this is the case for most of the area and the resort has better smelling water than some other places in the area.

The video shows interior of a 2 person sleeper with beds down upon arrival. Was warm and holes were ready. Bedding was not clean (bodily fluids smeared on fitted sheet near garbage can) and garbage can had garbage in it (paper towels and a pop bottle). Consider bringing your own fitted sheets. Overnight winds caused bridge to be unstable and a vehicle had gone through 3am Saturday morning, and received a visit early Saturday morning telling us to shelter in place until someone physically came to tell us it was safe. No one stopped by or called to check on us until Sunday morning to plow us out. The outhouse was completely full by Saturday night and no one changed it out all weekend. Bring paper towels with you to cover the mound. Rented a generator but only had gas enough for 8 hours. Couldn't get back in to get more gas. Lucky to have brought enough water and snacks, including lots of beef jerky, to last us the weekend. Brought a jackery which came in handy to charge phones 2nd night. Word of advice that they didn't tell us, if renting a generator, bring a gas can and extension cord. Bring a power strip and extra power banks. If you have your own poop bucket, consider bringing it with plenty of bags and TP. Plan to be stranded for a few days, just in case of blizzard conditions. Shack we were in was very drafty with the high winds and there was a 2 inch gap above the door. The windows were also very drafty. We had two large bath towels with us and hung one over the window which helped a lot and stuffed the other in the gap above the door that helped. Then the propane fumes built up since there was no air vent. There was a small propane cooktop as seen in the video. The propane lights added warmth. Caught and kept 7 walleyes 15-16.5", one really small walleye was thrown back, and kept one nice size perch during the 2 days and 2 nights lines were down. Would have liked to make it in to eat at the bar but that never happened.

Not your parent's "Mom and Pop" resort...thankfully!…read more We had a truly enjoyable four nights at Loon Point. The clean, VERY WELL maintained cabin included a warming fireplace, crispy clean bedding, all required utensils and virtually instant hot water in the shower and kitchen. The grounds provided space for casual walks (escorted by hummingbirds and chipmunks). Fishing was good and the lake scenic thanks in great part to limited development. As important as anything, Loon Point's owner/operators were not only visible, but helpful as well. Loon Point provides lots of lessons for owner/operators of "Mom and Pop" destinations who believe they'll stay in business by doing the "same old thing." It's just not gonna happen.
