The leaves are beginning to change and soon the air will start getting a little crisper. Along with these changes, Northland Lodge also transitions into a Pumpkin Spice lover’s dream. With our stunning scenery, beautiful wildlife, and cozy atmosphere, Northland Lodge offers a perfect escape for those seeking to embrace the beauty and serenity of fall in northern Minnesota.
A Perfect Place for Outdoor Enthusiasts One of the most captivating aspects of fall at Northland Lodge is the display of colors. Chippewa National forest begins to shed its greenery, replacing it with shades of gold, orange, and red, a beautiful backdrop for your stay. Not only is this colorful explosion on display above the horizon, Lake Winnie itself reflects the vibrant colors of the foliage, creating a picture perfect scene. Fall is a fantastic time to explore the great outdoors at Northland Lodge. Enjoy hiking or biking through the colorful trails, or rent a boat to cruise along the waters of Lake Winnie. Fishing enthusiasts will enjoy plenty of opportunities to angle the day's catch, as the cooler temperatures bring fish closer to the surface. Outside of the water, Autumn is an amazing time to spot and take-in the region’s wildlife. Keep your eyes peeled for deer, loons, and many of our other wild neighbors that call this region home. With the leaves changing and the food sources shifting, wildlife is more active and easier to spot. Please remember though: keep a safe distance, while these animals are majestic, they are also wild, and safety should always be top of mind. Activities and Adventure Waits for You The community around Northland Lodge offers a variety of fall events and activities in surrounding areas for guests of all ages. We have a variety of local festivals and events happening throughout the season for all interests! Celebrate the fall harvest with local farmers' markets and festivals. Not only are these a great way to spend an afternoon, but they also help support our local community, so they can continue to support us, and ultimately you! Fall is also prime time for local Arts and Crafts fairs, where you can find amazing souvenirs and handmade goods from our local artisans. In our opinion, some of the most interesting decor you can buy these days are at these fairs, rather than the mass produced decor you’d find online or at a big box store! If a festival or an arts fair isn’t your thing, and you want to get a more thrilling adventure, we’ve got PLENTY of hiking and biking trails to explore. If you want to move a little faster than your feet or bike will allow, bring your ATV and take an afternoon cruise! For you competitive types, fall is the perfect time (and last chance) to get out on the golf course. The experience is even enhanced with the autumn leaves! Pair that with a couple of your favorite beverages and I can’t think of a better way to spend a day up north! Cozy Retreats Finally, after a day of exploring, retreat to one of our cozy cabins and relax by the fire. Enjoy a cup of hot cider or a glass of wine while recapping the day, or watching the sunset. Our cabins offer a comfortable and inviting atmosphere, perfect for unwinding and enjoying the peace and quiet of the northwoods. Whether you're seeking a romantic getaway, a family adventure, or a solo retreat, Northland Lodge offers the perfect setting to embrace the beauty of fall in Minnesota.
