“What a peaceful, clean, and relaxing resort! The owners were very accommodating, even offering to make us coffee from their own kitchen when we ran out. You can't go wrong staying here if you want to experience the beautiful Minnesota outdoors.”

“We came up for 4 days with family and absolutely LOVED our experience at Bear Paw! Doug was so friendly and accommodating and personally came over to bid us farewell on our last day. He and his wife run a great operation up there and we'll definitely be staying again!”

“I cannot say enough good about Bear Paw Resort. If you are looking for a place to stay in Minnesota, this is the place. It's only about 20 minutes from both Downtown Park Rapids and the Mississippi Headwaters in Itasca State Park. If you see an open week on their calendar, do not hesitate to book it!”
