We LOVED our time at LLL. The kids keep talking about our time there...almost a year later. They loved the scavenger hunt, kayaks, swimming raft, crafts, child activities, etc. My husband and myself appreciated the welcoming staff, wonderful food/wine knowledge. We would have loved to have had several of the staff be our child care providers...they were that great with... More

Me and my 5 high school girlfriends just spent a three night stay and I must say we loved it! We are all in our 40's and well traveled and we thought the service was great! The food was fantastic! The cabin was perfect for our needs,a little outdated but so what! Very neat and clean! Very quiet and relaxing!... More

Our family went to Lost Lake Lodge for a special occasion meal specifically because it advertises gluten free options. We have one person in the family that must eat gluten free. When we were there, they explained that they completely understand cooking gluten free and we were not to worry. We noticed the tables had not been well cleaned from... More

We just returned from a 4-day, 3-night stay at Lost Lake Lodge on Gull Lake Narrows just outside Brainerd, Minnesota. This is the second time we've stayed here- the first being two summers ago. Overall the resort is nice and certainly clean and well-maintained. The best part is that instead of a single large building with hotel-style rooms, you get... More

We are entering our FIFTH repeat year at Lost Lake this week. Our kids (now 8 & 11) love it and we love the small environment where we can get back to basics. No TV is GREAT! How often can you just hang out all day and then come in for an AMAZING meal!! The staff there even offerred to... More

Saw the bad review from July 2010. We stayed the same month had opposite experience. Staff very accommodating, even making food for my daughter with special diet. My family loved it. It was very expensive but it is the way to go if not driving from home with ability to bring food, gear, etc. We came from out-of-state and came... More

It was our first time visiting Lost Lake but I could see returning in upcoming years for sure. Our four-year-old had a blast and the meals were wonderful. The kids program was a welcome addition and we had so much fun on our nature walk. Pros - Beautiful grounds, excellent housekeeping, inexpensive local activities, easy boat rental, fishing poles, great... More

It's expensive and the staff and management make you feel like they are doing you a favor by having you stay. Don't bother! There are lots of other options that Are more friendly, have better service, and are better priced.

We last stayed at Lost Lake in 2007 and are planning to go again in 2010. The only reason we haven't been back is the price - it's a bit spendy but absolutely worth every penny. The kids' program is wonderful. The beach is perfect for kids, and there are so many other kid-friendly activities. Meals are fabulous, and even... More
