Get DirectionsAbout
From lodging to recreation, fine food to fabulous four-season fun, it's all here. At Cragun's, we pride ourselves on being large enough to offer a memorable choice of recreational packages, yet small enough to make you feel right at home. What's your pleasure? There's golf on 54 world-class holes at Cragun's Legacy Courses. Swim in our indoor and outdoor pools. Play tennis or basketball in our Sports Centre. Take a guided fishing trip or rent a boat at our full-service Marina. In winter, snowmobile or cross-country ski on miles of groomed trails. Over 1,200 miles of groomed snowmobile trails begin right at our doorstep, including the famous Gull Lake Lighted Trail and nearby Paul Bunyan Trail. Rent an ice fishing house or take a horse-drawn sleigh ride. Cragun's SnoMo Center offers complete rentals of snowmobiles, cross-country skis, gear and clothing. All this fun is housed amid a wide range of accommodations in varying style and cost. Over 200 lakeside units and cabins include rooms with private balconies, microwaves, fireplaces, wet bars and more. There are also lakeside cabins and whirlpool suites. Many excellent dining choices include the beautiful Northwoods Lodge Dining Room in the Main Lodge overlooking Gull Lake, the lakeside Irma's Kitchen Restaurant set in a lovely, rustic 1926 timber lodge, the Legacy Bar & Grille in the clubhouse overlooking the golf course, the Cabana Cafe and Cragun's famous Welcome Receptions. Cragun's commitment to quality and service has been recognized many times. More recently, the resort has been honored as a "Top Ten Resort" by Midwest Living, a "Family Favorite Resort" by MN Parent and as MN Innkeepers of the Year.
