Whether you're the hike-until-sunset type or the chill-by-the-fire kind, there's something here for every pace and personality. From sunrise paddles to stargazing nights, your Up North escape can be as laid-back or as adventurous as you want it to be. Here are a few guest favorites you won’t want to miss while you’re here — explore, unwind, and make it yours.
Start your day on the water, gliding past rugged cliffs and pine-covered bluffs. Keep an eye out for loons, eagles, and the occasional otter as you paddle through the calm, clear waters near Split Rock. Peaceful, scenic, and just the right kind of wild — not a bad way to spend your morning.
Lace up your boots and hit the trail just before golden hour. The short climb to Lookout Point rewards you with sweeping views of Lake Superior, glowing in shades of orange and pink. Bring a blanket, a thermos, and stay a while — it’s a sunset worth lingering for.
Sometimes the best adventures are the quiet ones. Cast a line off the dock in the early morning mist or as the sun dips low in the evening. Whether you reel in dinner or just a good story, it’s a classic Up North experience — peaceful, timeless, and deeply satisfying.
When the sun goes down, the real show begins. With no city lights for miles, the sky comes alive — constellations, shooting stars, and even the Milky Way in full view. Bring a blanket, lean back, and let the night sky remind you just how big (and beautiful) the world can be.
