About

Welcome to Red Rider Resort!
Nestled on the serene Manuel Mine Pit on the far east side of the Cuyuna Recreational Area, Red Rider Resort offers a perfect getaway for nature lovers, adventurers, and those seeking relaxation. Our resort is directly connected to the Cuyuna Bike Trail, making it an ideal destination for outdoor enthusiasts.

Unique Lodging & Scenic Views

Our stilt cabins perch above the lake, offering breathtaking views. Nestled among towering pines above the steep 35-foot man-made cliffs. For those who prefer camping, our tent and RV sites sit on a historic mining ridge once used for ore processing.

Lake Access & Water Activities

Guests have two ways to reach the pristine, spring-fed lake:
A staircase leading to our private dock—perfect for launching a kayak or taking in the stunning scenery.
A short walk or bike ride to the DNR Public Access—a gradual-entry area great for kids to swim.
Manuel Mine Pit is a non-motorized, carry-in access lake, ideal for kayaking and paddle boarding. Keep in mind that the lake reaches depths of over 161 feet, with drop-offs, so we highly recommend wearing life jackets near the water.

Bike Trails & Winter Activities

If biking is your passion, our resort provides direct access to the Cuyuna Recreational Trails. In the winter, the trails are groomed for fat tire biking and also make for excellent snowshoeing adventures.

Fishing Adventures

Manuel Mine Pit is stocked with rainbow trout, making it a great fishing destination. We offer winter guided fishing trips, or in the summer, you can rent a kayak or fish off our 25-foot dock. *trout stamp is required.

Relax & Rejuvenate
Looking to unplug and unwind? Grab a book and enjoy the peaceful front porch of your cabin, where you can listen to the wind rustling through the pines. Or, gather around a campfire with friends and family for a perfect evening under the stars.
For the ultimate relaxation, indulge in our wood-fired sauna—a rejuvenating experience that will warm your body and soul after a long day of adventure.

A Year-Round Destination

Red Rider Resort is open year-round, making it the perfect vacation destination in every season. Whether you're here for biking, fishing, paddling, or simply unwinding in nature, we can’t wait to welcome you!
Hope to see you soon!
