Clearwater Historic Lodge and Canoe Outfitters is the original resort lodge and outfitter on the Gunflint Trail, on the edge of the beautifully pristine Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness of Northeast Minnesota.  On the National Register of Historic Places, the only lodge on Clearwater Lake was completed in 1926 by pioneer Charlie Boostrom and has been preserved and maintained over generations to retain the look and feel of a time gone by. Charlie chose to build the lodge and resort in a prime location with incredible views of Clearwater Lake and its stunning palisades. With extensive Gunflint Trail Lodging options our resort has something for everyone – whether you desire a historic log cabin, a modern lake home, or cozy bed and breakfast room or suite, we have what you’re looking for in a wilderness lakeside vacation experience.

Clearwater Historic Lodge and Canoe Outfitters is also a gateway to one of America’s greatest adventures –  the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness.  Clearwater Lake is an entry point to the BWCAW, which provides immediate access to the wilderness by paddle, foot or motor.  We are conveniently located halfway up the Gunflint Trail Scenic Byway, north of Grand Marais, with close proximity to pristine hikes, expansive lakes, and exciting adventures in Cook County, MN.
