Fun Included — One Stop Shop Minnesota Resort Venues

From the iconic Swiss Army knife to the latest mobile phones with cameras, we Americans love all-in-one convenience. Savvy meeting + event planners know that’s especially true when it comes to all-inclusive, one-stop resort venues. Merging business with pleasure in a single expansive location, these fabulous facilities eliminate the need for multiple bookings and team transport to hotels, event centers, off-site activities, restaurants and more. Why go to all that trouble, when everything you want is right through these doors?

The Perfect Balance

Year round, Appeldoorn's Sunset Bay Resort on Lake Mille Lacs caters to fun-seeking business pros who long for the perfect balance between labor and leisure. Featuring a stunning new event center with 2500-square-foot ballroom, 990 square feet of additional meeting space, comfy rustic cabins, on-site catering, and endless activities, your guests will want for nothing.

Newly renovated by new owners, Mille Lacs’ Izatys Resort is operating once again, much to the pleasure of those who’ve come to love this classic resort that originally opened in 1921.  Among its many amenities, visitors will enjoy the gorgeous lakeside location, the stunning inn, luxury beach villas and townhomes, plus championship golf, marina, and conference center.  

Perennial Favorites

Grand View Lodge is a perennial favorite for all who’ve ever journeyed to this jewel on Gull Lake. Guests indulge in spa services, compete on the championship golf course, revel in the mouthwatering meal choices, all while taking care of business in the myriad meeting spaces. Whether it’s a cruise on the lake, cocktails on the patio, or a lunch meeting at the beach pavilion, there’s something for every busy body at Grand View.

Since 1898, folks have flocked to Ruttger's Bay Lake Lodge. That’s because guests can choose to check into the Five Pines Lodge, a beautiful Bay Lake Villa, Battlepoint Condos, Black Bear House, cozy Cottages and more. Add roomy corporate meeting space, amenities and activities like golf, pontoon rides, salon and spa, biking, tubing and wine tasting, and your guests may never check out.

Great Group Gatherings

Gather your group at Breezy Point Resort & Conference Center on beautiful Pelican Lake. Their state-of-the-art event center offers 25,000 square feet of flexible function space, plus additional smaller meeting rooms for breakout sessions. Three 18-hole golf courses, four delicious dining options, live entertainment, swimming, boating, tennis and more make this an ideal choice for an all-inclusive get-away.

Business plus pleasure is what your team will discover at Arrowwood Resort & Conference Center. Chase on the Lake. Begin by conferring in the Conference Center where you’ll find 28,000 square feet of meeting space with 12 function rooms, a ballroom and boardroom with AV support and on-staff meeting planners. After hours, your crew can get comfy in any of the many guest rooms, suites, townhomes, or cottages, make a splash at the waterpark, hit the links at the golf course, or rest and relax at the spa.

Conducting business couldn’t get any better than when you do it at The Lodge at Giant's Ridge.  This sprawling Northwood’s lodge is surrounded by towering pines and deep blue lakes of Minnesota’s Superior National Forest. With wonderful accommodations for individuals, families or groups, plus dining, an expanded recreational area, skiing, golf and spa, there aren’t enough hours in the day to fit it all in.

All work and no play makes for dull business meetings, bored staff members, and an uninspiring company culture. This season, why not go where fun and function are business as usual? Chances are, you’ll notice an all-inclusive resort conference for your team will net across-the-board success for your business.
