We sat in the back room which only held our party. After moving some lightbulbs around so we could see better, we settled in to order. They have a nice selection of beers on tap. I ordered the grilled chicken sandwich with a side of coleslaw which was good. We shared cheese curds which were excellent and I copped a few fries from other's plates and those were yummy too. Staff was good. Nice experience.

Best food on the lake and the service is always friendly. Great selection of things to drink too.read more

Not your parent's "Mom and Pop" resort...thankfully!…read more We had a truly enjoyable four nights at Loon Point. The clean, VERY WELL maintained cabin included a warming fireplace, crispy clean bedding, all required utensils and virtually instant hot water in the shower and kitchen. The grounds provided space for casual walks (escorted by hummingbirds and chipmunks). Fishing was good and the lake scenic thanks in great part to limited development. As important as anything, Loon Point's owner/operators were not only visible, but helpful as well. Loon Point provides lots of lessons for owner/operators of "Mom and Pop" destinations who believe they'll stay in business by doing the "same old thing." It's just not gonna happen.

First the resort is nice along with the cabins here plus being right by the lake…read more However, beware of the owner Kim...Me, and 3 guests rented a cabin at this resort last month and Kim did make the visit not so pleasant. If you want your privacy invaded by the owner with family friends visiting along with extra fees that should not be charged along and last awful customer service skills, then this is the place for you. I myself was only there for just under a week. The owner is charging us way more than we were quoted. We were quoted just under $3000 for the entire rental and then after we left added all these fees to the final bill which we were not told about at all, more about that later in this review. Other than the final charges being way over and not told about prior, Kim did some things which we feel crossed the line along with showing she does not care about customer service when there is a dispute on the bill. During time at cabin, one of friends family came up for part of the day, while outside having a great time talking a nice conversation, the owner Kim unexpectedly stands behind them listening to the conversation Friend and her family members are having then RUDELY interrupts and starts talking about herself. Not only time too, I was outside with good friend, his good friend from Hibbing, saw Kim driving around, yet felt she was listening to our conversation. Not a pleasant feeling at all, makes you feel uncomfortable. Last year, friend (2021) was staying there and Kim asked her to take photos of any license plates for ANY visitor, even if friends or family visiting the resort then send over text. Reason being too is Kim or her assistance to run background checks on them. What an invasion of privacy! Friend was so embarrassed too. Background checks to that nature should only be done for certain purposes NOT visiting a resort, never ever seen that in the 40 years Ive been living. According to the Better Business Bureau, the resort has been in business for 27 years, BUT the sad thing is Kim shows poor customer service skills. On final bill we are being charges extra guest fees when only 4 were staying at cabin at any given time, but Kim claims in her rebuttal due a family reunion friend was having the "Septic and Well systems would be severely taxed." The problem with the owner's claim is it's a TOTAL LIE, friend had family over, BUT THEY Never stayed in the cabin or even go inside to use the restroom. Owner Kim did say 4 people can stay in a cabin with no extra guest charges, as I noted, NOT ONCE during the 2 weeks when we were renting had any more than 4 people in cabin. In addition, we were charged 15 bucks for 2 bags of ice and get this...$90 BUCKS for using 2 pieces of firewood. When we asked about the charges on final invoice, Kim refused to talk about, and sent nasty text messages to f. Since I agreed with my friends to pay the final charges, I sent 2 emails to Kim asking for a reduction plus extra time to pay and asking the cost of rental stay as quoted, never got a response back to me, BUT Kim sends only to my friend nasty attitude text messages with outrageous excuses for the extra charges. Here is the thing I have figured out , she will be like that with women but not with guys. It's like she is scared to speak to me which is appalling for a business owner and a shameful thing to do when it comes to customer service. My advice...AVOID renting a cabin here at all COSTS. I've given the owner Kim one last chance to reply TO me. If she does NOT, I will be filling a complaint with Better Business Bureau and with the Minnesota Attorney Generals Office. Last the MN Dept Of Commerce might be also contacted. Likely the owner Kim will reply to this review, but her side of story will be all not true. One last thing, on day of checking out at the cabin, her mom really helped to clean the cabin out. Kim does a walkthrough then demands friends 74 year old mother water the plants outside when it should be either Kim or her employees job to do, but wait Kim has no workers because they all quit I heard due to how she treated her employees.

We booked our vacation in March and was looking forward to being on the lake once the dreaded Arizona summer hit. We booked cabin #3 which had two bedrooms and one bath with a wonderful view of the lake, a nice sized deck, and a fire pit. All the kitchen appliances were available including a dishwasher! The basic cookware and dishes were also included. It was the perfect size for our family of five. It was so clean and tidy upon check in and it even smelled nice and not musty (been to other cabins that had this problem). We unpacked our things and had enough space for everything, groceries included. The amenities on the lake were so fantastic! The kids enjoyed the playground which included swings, seesaw, slides, and a sandbox. They even had swings right on the sand so you could jump off into the water. We also took advantage of the peddle boats, canoe, paddle boards, and key log. They were all included with our reservations and didn't have to pay extra. But be sure to bring quarters for the arcade room. You're gonna need it! Oh and if you plan on doing laundry they do have washers and dryers that take quarters. My babies (ages 9, 6, & 2) participated in the kids fishing contest and they were so thrilled. Although I think they loved playing with the worms more than the fish. On Wednesday they held a ceremony and they each received an award for their catch of the day with my little one getting the "smallest fish caught" award which he held up proudly. There are also towns close by to grab a bite to eat which we did twice during the week. My hubby even got to play golf since there was a course nearby. The owners were wonderful and very down to earth. They greeted us at check in and made us feel welcomed. I would always see them chatting up with other visitors as if they were life long friends. Many of the visitors are return customers and make yearly trips to the lake. Overall, we had a wonderful experience and created cherished family memories. We absolutely loved our stay here at Thunder Lake Lodge! We will be back! Thank you Craig & Jaime!

The resort consists of almost 30 cabins of various sizes, plus a large "retreat home" down the shore that we haven't seen yet. The "log" cabins range from fairly cramped and rustic to much more modern and spacious. We've rented one of the larger cabins for two older couples set back from the lake the past few years and really enjoy it. Pehrson caters to family vacations and reunions, and a lot of the patrons we met have been coming there for decades. It is truly a fine lake summer experience, located in the southwest corner of sprawling Lake Vermilion. We've taken advantage of pontoon rentals; the pickleball court; 2+ mile hiking trail; the beach and swimming area with large floats the kids love to climb all over; a small but surprisingly well-equipped fitness room with a few cardio machines plus dumbbells, Swiss balls, bands, etc.; foosball, a pool table and ping pong tables at the Main Lodge; a great lakeside seating area to view spectacular sunsets; and charcoal barbeque grills (some of which are deteriorating). Yes, it is expensive -- especially compared to what you might pay at a nice Caribbean resort -- but the pricing looks competitive against other Northern resorts.
