What it feels like to stay here
Villas at Giants Ridge sits above Wynne Lake in Biwabik, Minnesota, where the resort's villas and suites overlook water that connects through to Sabin Lake. Because of that connection, the operator notes guests can fish, swim, or go boating right from the doorstep. Canoes, kayaks, paddle boards, and swimming are all listed among the property's summer water sports. An outdoor pool and hot tub operate during summer months only, and the Villas keep a private beach at the lake. A quarter of a mile down the road, the Pool and Sauna Haus is open to the public but requires a separate day pass. The pool inside the Lodge is run as a separate business and is not available to Villas guests. From spring into fall, golfers play championship Minnesota golf on the Legend or the Quarry courses at Giants Ridge. In winter the Villas are onsite at Giants Ridge Ski Resort and within walking distance of 35 alpine runs, cross country trails, a snowboard park, and a snow tubing park. A snowmobile trail system of more than 2,000 miles reaches the front steps of the villas and suites, and the same terrain suits fat tire biking. Lodging runs to three- and four-bedroom villas, described by the operator as slope-side. Reservations are handled by the front desk at 218-865-4155, with the welcome center open every day from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
