Resorts with motels?


Big Dave2

Recommended Posts

I want to get a different camper anyway so I am thinking of selling my older motorhome now and waiting a year to buy my next camper since we will be having a busy summer anyway and will probably not have a whole lot of time to camp.

My question is, does any one know of any resorts that have a motel along with the cabins and such? I know there is at least one such resort on the east side of Mille Lacs(the name escapes me right now).

I am not looking for a fancy hotel like Eddy's on Mille Lacs but just somewhere that I can rent a little motel room next to a lake where my son and I can take the boat out and do a little fishing and I can tie the boat up to a dock for the night so we can go again in the morning. Any place in the state that meets these criteria would be fine.

Thanks,
Dave

Stony Ridge I think that's the name in Ely, on Shagawa lake. Has a campground and some sleeper cabins, not a full blown cabin but more of just a couple of beds and a bath room. Nice place and good food. Good luck

Bid Dave, how about in-we-go resort in Nevis. they are on the crow wing chain,lakes 8,9,10.I have stayed there in the past in both a cabin and motel room, very nice and simple. they also have seasonal sites if interested down the road. The only down fall would be the county road that splits the lake from the reort.

Little Winnie Resort. The only resort or cabin on Little Winnie Lake. Real nice folks. We went there 2 years ago on opener. It was very cold and the water was low. Tons of small pike, a couple nice crappie, and a bunch of JUMBO perch. Walleye eluded us that weekend.

    • As a recovering machinist, I can appreciate that.  If the spec is 0.001 - 0.0015, then clearly the correct measurement is 0.00125, duh…
    • I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...
    • Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?
    • I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.
    • You're very lucky a troop of Sea Monkey's didn't carry you away.   
    • Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe.  I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho.  Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
    • The water looked and smelled disgusting with hundreds of thousands of birds sh*tting in there.  About as gross as the Salton Sea. When I duck hunted there I didn't even want to touch the water.
    • It's kinda gross with the algae in the summer but I got in it anyway.  Wanted to see the increased bouyancy at work.  You can kinda tuck yourself into a ball and you'll just float with your head above water.  When dry off you look diamond encrusted with the salt.
    • We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity. 
    • I've been out on the flats. It's like being on a different planet
