Old Deetz Slate Mine Quarry

In operation from 1854-1911 under the direction of Levi Deetz, the quarry produced high-quality roofing slate for many of the significant building projects in the surrounding area including Duluth. In 1892, 'Slateville' was created to provide housing for workers in the quarry. The quarry was mined to a depth of approximately 100 ft and contained tunnels. Although presently filled with water, the steep quarry walls are visible and an historical marker is at the site.

Voted 2021’s best golf course in Bluff Country. Rivers Bend, at Old Barn Resort, is an 18 hole, par 70 course. Unfolding along the Root River and Watson Creek, every shot on every hole places you in an unrivaled setting of natural beauty. With tee shots atop bluffs and approach shots to well protected greens, accuracy will be important. Featuring not one, but two signature holes. Hole 10 is a peninsula par 3 and Hole 16 is a long par 5 showcasing a bluff wall and trees from tee to green. Rivers Bend is as picturesque as it is challenging.
