Because Garden Lake Resort is a small resort of four cabins, it's not uncommon for families to book all four of our Ely Minnesota cabins for their family and extended family for a week.  

Grandma and grandpa, mom, dad, brothers,sisters, nieces, nephews, aunts, and uncles share time together in ways that they may not have the opportunity to do in everyday life, especially if they live far apart.

 They have time together to share meals, activities, outings, and
adventures-but also space apart in their own cabins.

They have all the comforts of home-soft bed, hot showers, full kitchen,
TV/DVD/Wi-Fi, fireplace-without the to-do's and responsibilities of
home.

At the start of the day, they may break off into groups to fish, golf,
swim, read, hike, bike or nap and then come together at the end of the day to to share food, stories and s'mores around the campfire.

Usually by mid-week, they start thinking about booking again for next
year, if they haven't already. They recognize that the commitment they
make to their week together at the cabins is one of the greatest gifts
they can give each other.

Booking all four cabins at our northern Minnesota resort is a wonderful
idea not only for families/extended families, but also for book club
members, high school and college reunions with friends, and other groups
of 6-24, any time of year.

We'll provide the place and space--you'll create the memories.
