Bojou Lodge Resort on Round Lake
Spring in the north woods of Minnesota produces great fishing. Cool clear nights bring out more stars than you ever thought possible, accompanied by the unique serenade of the loons.

Summer holds the promise of warm sunny days to play in the lake, get a good tan, hit the bike trail, or just sit around under a tree. As you look out over the lake there is a good chance you'll see a Bald Eagle or an Osprey take a fish from the lake... a sight you'll never forget. If you're lucky you'll get to see the Northern Lights... and you'll sleep like a baby.

Fall will bring you to some of the most beautiful scenery that you have ever seen in any picture. Capture the wonderful colors of the trees reflecting on the blue water with your very own eyes and camera. Fall is also the beginning of hunting season. Grouse and ducks can be found in abundance. We offer guided bear hunting and remain open into November for the deer hunters in search of a trophy buck.
