North Star Lake Resort & Seasonal Campground

North Star Lake Resort & Seasonal Campground A family-friendly lake resort in Marcell, Minnesota offering comfortable cabins, beautiful views, delicious dining, and year-round fun.

Come unwind, adventure, and make lasting memories at North Star Lake Resort. North Star Lake Resort is a family-friendly getaway tucked away on beautiful North Star Lake, just 30 miles north of Grand Rapids, MN. Located off the Edge of the Wilderness National Scenic Byway, our resort is the perfect place to relax, play, and enjoy the natural beauty of northern Minnesota. Our 17 cozy Northwoods-sty

le cabins (2-, 3-, and 5-bedroom) are fully equipped with air conditioning, Wi-Fi, and streaming services to keep you comfortable and connected. Families love the heated swimming pool and sun deck, large sandy beach, and swim area featuring a water trampoline, giant waterslide, and a smaller slide and climber just for the little ones. Kids also enjoy the well-equipped playground and playhouse. Guests have free access to paddleboats, paddle boards, and kayaks, and can join in on games of volleyball, basketball, or horseshoes. After a fun-filled day, head to our two-level lodge — home to a downstairs game room with books and puzzles, and upstairs you'll find The Chow Hall & Class VI Bar & Grill serving up food, drinks, and good times. Fishing enthusiasts will love North Star Lake’s 1,000 acres of clear water and 15 miles of shoreline. The lake is home to trophy muskies, walleye, northern pike, crappie, and panfish. We offer pontoon and fishing boat rentals (10hp motors), and expert local fishing guides are available to help you make the most of your time on the water. Whether you're here to fish, swim, explore, or just unwind, North Star Lake Resort is your ideal northwoods retreat.

A little R&R on North Star Lake was definitely needed… 🎣🌊

Even when you own the resort, you’ve gotta sneak away for a little lake time every now and then! 😉

Mike and I got out on the water for a little fishing, relaxing, and enjoying what we’re lucky enough to call home.

And Mike even managed to land a nice one! 🎣👏

Sometimes the best reset is a boat, a fishing pole, and a quiet evening on the lake. 💙

There’s just something about being on the lake after dark… 🌙🌊

No crowds. No noise. Just the sound of the water and the boat carrying you into the night.

Up North just hits different. 💙

Would you take a nighttime boat ride? 👇

🪨🐛 Our resort caterpillar is growing!

We absolutely love seeing all of the creative rocks our guests have been adding. Every one is unique, and it’s so much fun watching our caterpillar come to life one rock at a time! 🎨❤️

At this rate, we might have to start doing a weekly caterpillar update because it keeps getting bigger and better! 😄

Keep the creativity coming—we can’t wait to see what gets added next! 🌈

👇 If you’ve painted a rock during your stay, see if you can spot it in these photos and be on the lookout 👀 for an updated video!
