Item Description
Nor'Wester Lodge & Canoe Outfitters has been one of the most unforgettable Northern Minnesota vacation spots for over 80 years. Located on the historic Gunflint Trail 30 miles outside of Grand Marais, on the shore of beautiful Poplar Lake, Nor'Wester Lodge & Canoe Outfitters is surrounded by the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness (BWCAW) and the Superior National Forest.
The resort offers lakeside cabin and villa accommodations, and a campground. The area is known for excellent fishing for walleye, lake trout, northern pike and smallmouth bass. In winter, reliable snow depth from December through March creates a premier destination for snowmobiles, with miles of groomed snowmobile trails.
If you long for a place where the phone doesn't ring, and the only sounds you hear are the lapping of the waves on the shore and the loons off in the distance, be prepared to be amazed, delighted, and relaxed. This item is good for three days and two nights in a cozy cabin for two on the shore of Poplar Lake.
Reservations for stays between Memorial Day and October also include two passes to the Chik-Wauk Museum and Nature Center. Located at the end of the Gunflint Trail, Chik-Wauk offers a special insight into the cultural and natural history of the Gunflint Trail from prehistoric beginnings to the present. Visitors may tour exhibits depicting the early history of settlement along the Gunflint Trail, then explore a network of nature trails that crisscross the 50 acres of museum grounds. Several times a week, the museum offers presentations on a variety of subjects from geology to local wildlife. Chik-Wauk is the perfect destination for folks of all ages who wish to learn more about the special place that is the Gunflint Trail.
