Birch Forest Lodge on beautiful Pelican Lake in Orr, Minnesota, is the perfect family-friendly getaway for your next vacation or fishing trip. 

Whether you want to relax, enjoy the great outdoors, or search for a prize catch, our charming cabins and deluxe boat rentals are ready to welcome you to your next adventure.

Our Minnesota Lake Resort is about an hour south of the Canadian border and an hour and a half north of Grand Rapids. If you choose to fly into Grand Rapids, you can enjoy a drive through several scenic state forests and reservations on the way to our resort.

A Rustic Cabin Getaway for Any Occasion

Our resort offers 12 exceptional cabin rentals on over 1000 feet of fantastic lake shore. All of our newly remodeled cabins are clean and well-maintained! The Minnesota vacation rentals range from 1-4 bedrooms, all air-conditioned. 

Each cabin is unique in history, layout, and proximity to the water. Whether you are planning a summer get-together with your extended family, a quiet fall getaway as a couple, or a group fishing trip to one of the best fishing lakes in Minnesota, we have the perfect cabin for you!

Minnesota Lake Resort Amenities and Activities

At Birch Forest Lodge, we also offer exceptional amenities and a variety of lake resort activities, including:

  • A fantastic swimming beach with volleyball
  • Canoes
  • Paddle boats
  • Stand-up paddle boards
  • And more!

Not to mention we’re a world-class fishing resort on Pelican Lake! 

The lodge contains a game room and a cozy gift shop where you can find a souvenir or a tasty ice cream treat! There is a large playground for the kids and spectacular sunsets for all ages. You can even sneak a peek at the Northern Lights from the resort, with your best chances to see them being in September!

Boat Rentals

We operate a small marina with boat and pontoon rentals available. Whether you want a fishing boat or a pontoon, we want you to have the best lake experience possible. Ask about our boat rental availability when you book your stay.

All guests can enjoy complimentary access to non-motorized water toys, such as kayaks, paddle boats, and boards. Want to bring your boat?

You can rent a spot at our brand-new dock; we offer daily and weekly rates.

Gone Fishing

Birch Forest Lodge is open annually from May to September during prime fishing months. If you’re looking for your next big catch, look no further than Pelican Lake, some of Northern Minnesota’s finest fishing.

From bass to pike to panfish, there’s always something biting. Are you new to fishing, have kids learning to fish, or looking for a few tips from the locals? You can hire one of our fishing guides or ask the lodge’s owner, Adam, for some advice. Check out our fishing reports for updates, too.

Our friendly and experienced guides are always ready to help and swap some fishing stories with other anglers.
