Please enjoy some of our favorite activities and locations in the area. We've put them in distance order from Up North Resort, so you can find your own favorite and not be swayed by us. They include locations in Wascott, Gordon and Minong.
By Land can only be accessed from Up North Resort via land travel.
By Land or By Sea can be accessed from Up North Resort via both land travel and boat travel.
We are avid ATV/UTV riders and highly recommend the Douglas County Trail System, the Washburn County Trail System and the Sawyer County Trail System. We can also recommend both Polaris Ride Command (although it's a little sketchy with low cell service) and Avenza Maps (better reliability with low cell service). Last but not least, Adam will always tell you to bring a paper map and a compass (at a minimum). Don't forget to tell someone where you're going and when you expect to return! Better safe than sorry out there folks.
While we do enjoy fishing, we don't do it as much as we use to. However, if you enjoy fishing you’ll find walleye, northern and panfish in both Cranberry Lake and the connecting Minong Flowage. If you don't feel like fishing but would like a fun tour around the flowage, we highly recommend taking The Dam Tour!
