Arcadia Lodge

Our family loves this Minnesota resort. It’s truly a gem! There is always something for everyone to enjoy. Whether it be bingo night with the family, the incredible bass fishing for the husband, kids activities for your littles, yoga or painting night for mom or renting a jet ski to enjoy with your teenagers. Not to mention the inflatables we all try to enjoy even if we all look ridiculous as adults trying to attempt the obstacle course. I tell all my friends it’s like booking a cruise with all the activities included without the food. It’s especially special to me personally as my son has autism and the staff that does the kids activities are always so inclusive with all the children. This place truly is heaven on earth. This was our second year up at Arcadia and we are already excited for next summer!

The people at Arcadia seem to always go out of their way to insure that their guest are well taken care of. Great Family.

Our experiences at Arcadia have been nothing short of amazing. So much to do, and so many options for children. This truly is a family friendly resort! Cabins are beautifully decorated (and very clean) with knotty pine, and many of the items have been handmade right there by the owners and staff. The kitchen is great, stocked with everything you could possibly need. All you need to take with you is your food, bath towels/kitchen towels and your beach items. We have gone for a few years now, and it quickly became our family vacation spot. It's something we look forward to all year!

The swimming area was phenomenal. Amazing water apparatus to challenge your athleticism. The water was so clear for snorkeling, I watched a huge crappie swim below me! Everything was top notch.

We’ve been going to Arcadia for over 10 years for our family vacation. There are so many activities and things for the kids to do! The staff is incredibly welcoming and friendly. It’s such a laid back atmosphere and it feels like your own cabin that you’re visiting but with all of the perks of a resort. I can’t recommend this place enough!

We had the absolute best experience at Arcadia Lodge. Not only did we get married here, but we also stayed for an entire week, and it was everything we could have hoped for and more. The lodge is beautiful, cozy, and full of charm, and the staff went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. They offered so many great amenities and activities that kept our stay fun, relaxing, and unforgettable. Getting married here was such a dream — the setting was stunning, and everything ran so smoothly. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about how amazing the lodge was, and we couldn’t agree more. We will forever cherish our memories here and are already excited to come back in the future. Highly recommend Arcadia for a wedding, a getaway, or just a special place to recharge.

Beautiful, fun resort! Great boat docking and boat landing, super nice beach with a super fun floating waterpark (pictured). The lake is beautiful, clean, and huge with many little bays for floating and swimming. The cabins are cute and cozy. I loved how they offer weekly activities likea variety of arts and crafts, bingo, sand building competition, tie dye shirt making, and getting a shirt heat pressed. The only things that really disappointed me was the attitude of all staff at the main lodge. Everytime I asked to get ice cream scooped or just walked up to the counter with stuff I was buying, the staff were cranky and looked like they hated their life. One worker even laughed at what I was buying. He was also eavesdropping on my conversations with my cousins and responding to what we were saying as if we were talking to him. I generally felt very unwelcome at the lodge. Although, the main lodge does have a impressive selection of candy, toys, and Arcadia Lodge apparel. There are also a bunch of fun games like billiards (pool), air hockey, and connect four. Overall, super fun resort. Definitely planning another stay soon!

Owners don't seem to like their careers. Many of our group reported being treated rudely by staff. The beds in the cabins are absolutely horrible, like sleeping on boards - it makes it impossible to get good nights sleep. Cabins themselves are clean. The lake is amazing, clear, deep and clean, and if you have kids, you can't beat all the water blow ups. Activities are scheduled each day focused on small children mostly. We have gone to Arcadia several summers.
