There are floors with two bathrooms on each floor with a sink and mirror in each room. Each room has a theme decor. Northwoods vibe is perfect. Two side by side kitchens make meal prep fun for a crowd. We spend leisurely days at the private beach, or on the lily pad, fishing off the dock or kayaking and paddle boarding. There is play area with small climbing wall for the young kids. Campfires at night with smores are the capper to delightful days at Edgewood.

The cabins have always been clean and well taken care of and they they have 14 total cabins. They are always very accommodating they work out something if you have an extra boat or extra people. It is more of a family setting,they have a swimming area and some resort owned kayaks and a canoe as well as paddle boat. They also have a volley ball and shuffle board court. In the office they have board games ( for rainy days) , ice cream , clothes, Bait and fishing advice if you want To know where to catch 'em . It's located bout a mile from the heartland trail so town is a short bike ride away.

I'm a bit of a glamping kind of lady and the cabins at Cedar Shores are log homes away from home. Everything was clean and even the comforters were freshly laundered. Our family stayed in cabin #6 and it has a beautiful deck with a fantastic view and direct access to the beach. They supplied the water toys to include kayaks and canoes. The beach was cleaned every morning by Louis, one of the family proprietors. If we needed anything, Juanita or Louis was right there for us. They care about their guests and give their property TLC. We hope to spend many more weeks in late summer at Cedar Shores!

It is nestled among the tall pines of a long ago logging camp, just 8 miles north of Park Rapids, in the heart of Minnesota's lake country. Eagle Bay Lodge offers lots of activities to keep you busy while you're visiting us. In addition to a beautiful shoreline with sandy beaches on Eagle Lake, Eagle Bay Lodge is also adjacent to a distinctive 18-hole executive golf course. Boating access to both Island Lake and Potato Lake ensures plentiful opportunities and options for good fishing and premium water recreation.

The…read morecabins are well kept, spacious and had everything that we needed - not to mention a beautiful view of the lake. The owners are great - we spent a lot of time hanging out in the store and enjoying free popcorn and good company. They also have cute and friendly dogs which is always a plus! Overall, a great experience - will definitely be returning!

Seriously, this doesn't get any better. Our first year here was under the new owners, but I…read moreunderstand that the previous owners were pretty good also. These owners are super nice people and beyond fair in their dealings. Free K-cup coffee and popcorn in the office, they actually bring popcorn to you most evenings as you sit around the campfire. Free donuts, juice, and coffee by the lake your first morning there. A fun "holey-board" tourney is a highlight. The only complaints about this place I have ever heard are by entitled folks who don't believe in parking boat trailers in the provided parking area and are otherwise rude rule-breakers in general! Rules are there to protect both the owner and you. The owners are NOT sticklers and will work with you. We rented a window A/C and they didn't charge us because it ended up being a cool week and we only ran it a couple days. The grounds are well-maintained. The driveway and area around the office are paved, so my granddaughter had a blast riding her scooter. Cabins are quite nice, spacious, and comfortable with nice kitchens... no slackers here. Newer cabins are VERY nice, and some have central air. Volleyball, playground, and a very large lawn for games. They have boats available, including pontoons. There are several docks and a swimming beach with lots of water toys. The lake isn't really big, so that means you don't wake up in the morning to jet-skis! Very quiet place, and they even have nesting bald eagles. Very close to Nevis and a nice drive to Park Rapids for shopping or to Walker for shopping and the casino. This is infinitely better than our previous resort home, both in ownership and in overall amenities.

The fishing is great and the accommodations, while not luxury are great for family getaways!. We take advantage of the walk/run/bike trail that is very close to the resort as well as the quaint village of Dorset a mile or two down the road.

There are specialty shops and one of the largest walk/run/bike trails around, Heartland Trail. I was only able to do 10 miles of it, but with different starting points there is always something new to see. Do bring your deet in the summer months as the state bird, the mosquito, is always present. You will also be close to the start of the Mississippi River, which you can walk across. I would recommend this resort and location for families or couples looking for an affordable getaway which is a steal.

Food,fishing,fun with hiking and an area good for kayaking this is my kind of place.

I tried to heat up some leftover pizza in the oven, smoke came out and smoke detectors went off. I found the racks had cleaner that had not been rinsed off; and the racks were still covered with grease that I couldn't rinse off. I mentioned the mouse droppings when leaving and was told the cabin is 90 years old and mice get in, and was told I should of taken the batteries out of the smoke detector if that bothered me. There is no internet or TV service. We left a day early because we couldn't handle another uncomfortable day. The owners were unconcerned as you can see by their responses and actions. If you don't mind mouse droppings; dirt and uncomfortable bed, this place is for you.

I would not recommend. Booked in Feb, going in August. I called the resort a few days before hand…read moreand they off handedly mentioned the pool was down (that was our preferred amenity.) Said it had been down for 2-3 months and they weren't even sure they could fix it and it likely was going to be dug up. Guests were not alerted and the website is still advertising the pool. I booked through the resort website. The resort is a timeshare, owned by an association that hired Capital Vacations to manage it and another vendor to handle reservations online. I was given all three of the companies phone numbers and spent hours on the phone getting passed around. No one would help, they all passed blame. They wouldn't give me a discount or let me cancel without a fee because when I booked the reservation they were offering a buy two nights get one night free (they are still offering this.) Since I already got that discount at the time of booking, with all amenities listed I was unable to get an additional discount or cancel without a fee even though they are no longer offering the same amenities.
