What it feels like to stay here

Madden's on Gull Lake keeps its address at 11266 Pine Beach Peninsula in Brainerd, Minnesota, with a front desk line at (218) 829-2811. The resort presents its multi-bedroom houses as gathering places for golf groups, family reunions and seasonal getaways. Each multi-bedroom unit comes with a full kitchen, a furnished common area, and private outdoor space. Most of the houses sleep between eight and sixteen guests. The Beach House stands on the shores of Wilson Bay and holds a full kitchen, a living room and fireplaces, sleeping eight to fourteen. Madden House, the former home of Jim Madden, puts guests in the heart of the resort and sleeps 8 to 16. From that doorstep, Gull Lake, the Pine Beach East golf course and the dining options are described as right outside the door. The Lakehouse catches sunrise views over Steamboat Bay and adds a spacious deck suited to group gatherings. Its recently renovated interior contains a full kitchen, a living room and a dining room. The Lakehouse sleeps 12 to 18, and Strawberry Hill House was once the home of Jack and Peg Madden. Strawberry Hill pairs a full kitchen and dining area, new in 2019, with sweeping views of Mission Point. For bigger parties, the Madden Lodge Bayview 6-plex sits near the boat launch with six rooms, six baths and room for 12 to 24 guests. Golf runs deep on the peninsula, with The Classic, Pine Beach East, Pine Beach West and the Social 9 among the listed courses. Meals spread across The Classic Grill, Fairways, Mission Point, The Lobby Cafe, Parfecto Pizza, the 19th Hole & Pool Deck and O'Madden Pub. Pools and beaches, a Tennis & Croquet Club, marina rentals, a water ski school and the spa round out the activity listings.
