Saganaga Lodge Small Room #2

It was fun to canoe on the lake when we arrived after a long dry ve.

Lovely remote lodge in beautiful area. The room is small, but well appointed. You will lose cell seevice on the gorgeous Gunflint Trail, so make sure you have saved your check in instructions beforehand. Note that many lodges on the trail have restaurants, but not this one, so bring food with you before you arrive. They are last on the trail except a campground, so once you’re here, you’ll need to have everything. I came thinking I might get to see the Milky Way since it’s so remote, but there is an adjacent parking lot for lake access with two large streetlights, so it’s not as dark as you might expect on the property itself. The beds are comfortable, shower works well, and staff is friendly! Walls between rooms are thin, so you will hear your neighbors, but they were respectful.

what a beautiful area, at the end of the gunflint trail. i was there before ice out so it was very quiet, beautiful surroundings and a very comfortable room. nice clean bathroom with good shower. this would be a perfect place to stay before and/or after a canoe trip into the BWCA. make sure you have everything you want because it is an hour drive into Grand Marais, that is part of the beauty of this place. i had great communication from the property owners, i will definitely staying there again.

The two reasons a poor cleanliness rating was specific to multiple piles of dog poop noted on the cement/paved walkways and the unpleasant aroma that dog poop has both fresh and aged. It really was disgusting. We were even lucky to have one of the kids step right in it at night due to poor lighting. The 2nd observation was nails and pieces of glass on the shore by the docks, again not kid friendly and risk for serious injury. Other than these things, we enjoyed our stay.
