Nestled in a beautiful and scenic valley of northeast Minnesota’s Sawtooth Mountains is Lax Lake. Once a logging community and Northern Rail stop, it was home to some of the state’s mightiest of loggers. Although the sawmill is gone, the beauty that once drew the first settler remains. It is here where each day nature’s ensemble invites your senses to experiences that no other place has. We welcome those who appreciate the peacefulness of God’s country and offer an enjoyable vacation doing what we we can to make your stay pleasurable and memorable...

Electric hookups are available for most sites.
Modern bathrooms, quarter operated showers and laundry facilities are avaible in the central lodge.

Awesome little campground. Bathrooms and showers are absolutely perfect. Cutest place ever!
Updated- we stopped in today 9/3/23- they are still open but the phone does still ring and ring! We booked the WRONG weekend, meant for the 29-30- can we switch!?? Can you please call me!? I’ve called and called- just rings! Thank you!
We love this resort. The views are awesome, the management is so kind, the facilities are clean. We usually bring our Pop Up. I am not sure it is open any longer tho? No one answers the phone and they have no email to contact. Sad! We were trying to book again! Hopefully someone can get back to us or answer the phone?
One of the best campsites I have ever stayed at! The staff were extremely accommodating and kind, especially for my last minute booking. The spot was quiet and absolutely beautiful! It was also inexpensive for such a pretty campsite, right on a lake, had ice cream, and was relatively near several gorgeous areas around Lake Superior to explore. I will definitely come back if I need a camping spot in this area again. Could not be happier with how my weekend turned out here!
Camping at Lax Lake is always a relaxing and pleasurable experience. The owners are amazing and the site beautiful. Whether one is wanting to rest and get back in tune with nature, boat, canoe, fish or be halfway between everything the North Shore has to offer, Lax Lake Resort is a great destination. The pet free resort has camping, cabins and all the facilities for a comfortable stay! We've stayed multiple times and will be back again.
We loved the peaceful environment, wildlife, cozy feel, and ice cream! Owners were extremely accommodating to our last minute switch to a larger camper. The bathrooms were very clean. Easy drive to many state parks/other tourist attractions.
