LAKE FRONT Beautiful Secluded Log Lodge • Dog-Kid Friendly • Sauna • Views

Welcome to Briar Lake Lodge, a charming rustic log cabin built in 1923, nestled on a serene and secluded trout lake. Located about 30 minutes from downtown Duluth, the lodge offers a variety of activities year-round, both on-site and nearby. Enjoy fishing, swimming, kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding, four-wheeling, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, and snowmobiling. Please note that large gatherings require prior approval.

Accommodating up to 16 guests, the lodge features a master king bedroom, two main floor bedrooms with queen beds, two loft bedrooms with 2 queen beds in each, and a hide-a-bed couch. At the heart of the lodge is a spacious grand living room with a stunning stone fireplace.

For warmer days, air conditioning is available in the lofts. Guests can take advantage of the dock, which comes equipped with kayaks and stand-up paddleboards for exploring the lake.
Additionally, a large patio and fire pit are perfect for family barbecues.

This property embodies the essence of a Northwoods Lake Cabin getaway. It is one of our favorite places to be, and we hope it becomes one of yours too!
