Northwoods getaways · November–May
Go a little farther north.
Stay a little longer.
Trade the everyday rush for quiet mornings, creative afternoons, and long, dark northern nights. Gather your writing group, bring your sketchbook or camera, or step outside our historic inn for star-filled skies and a chance at the northern lights. This winter, there’s every reason to stay one more night.
Two nights or three. A little more time for you.
A quieter season. An even better excuse.
Make room for a Northwoods pause.
A project spread across the table. A book you finally have time to finish. A weekend spent making something with friends. However you unwind, stay a little longer for a little less.

Come in from the cold
Historic charm.
Homestyle comfort.
Settle into a character-filled inn in Soudan, near Lake Vermilion. Comfortable guest rooms, cozy sitting areas, and a continental breakfast make it easy to feel at home.
Start with coffee. See where the day takes you.
Get outside
When the snow and ice arrive, make a day of snowmobiling or ice fishing, then come back to the warmth of the inn. Trail and ice conditions change through the season, so check before you head out. We’re happy to point you to current reports.

Bring your people
Quilting, crafting, writing, or catching up: our project and gathering spaces give friends room to reconnect. Ask us about planning a retreat.
Do wonderfully little
Bring a favorite book, linger over breakfast, and let your calendar breathe. As the season turns toward spring, keep the slower pace.
Room to spread out. Time to settle in.
The forecast? More time to create.
Bring your project.
Find your people.
The best retreat weather might be right indoors. Gather your quilting circle, scrapbooking friends, fellow artists, or writing group for a few unhurried days in the Northwoods.
Our spacious lower-level gathering area and project room offer tables, good lighting, and room to work. Add comfortable guest rooms, breakfast, and cozy places to take a break, and you have the makings of a wonderfully productive escape.
Save the memories
Bring your albums, photos, and supplies. Finally give those favorite moments a few dedicated days.
Stitch & stay
Gather your quilting or sewing group. Bring your own workshop and enjoy time around the project tables.
Make something
Pack your sketchbook or creative project. Change your surroundings and make space for fresh ideas.
Find your words
A quiet nook, morning coffee, and fewer distractions. Come solo or bring your writing circle.
Bring Your Camera
The night stars are amazing in winter and you may even catch the Northern Lights!

For the light chasers
Bring your camera.
Follow your curiosity.
Winter has a way of simplifying the landscape: quiet woods, bare branches, soft light, and beautiful little details. Pack your camera or sketchbook and give yourself time to notice.
Far from city lights, the night sky up here is something special. On clear nights, the stars seem to go on forever, and when conditions cooperate, you might catch the northern lights too. Some nights bring a sky worth waiting for; others are perfect for getting cozy and planning the next frame.
Come on your own or gather your photography friends. The inn makes a welcoming place to return, compare images, and let a creative weekend unfold.
