The pizza takes about 10 minutes in the pizza oven, there's a homey dinning area in the back corner filled with historical photos and artifacts about the area.

Pro-tip: there is a bookshelf in the back for you to take, enjoy and forward on. How kind is that?!?

Would just like to mention this Gateway General Store. Like another Yelper out there…read moreexplained...this place has everything. It's the perfect little stop for anything you may need in preparation for visiting Voyageurs National Park. Although Voyageurs NP is huge and there are 3 main sections to it, this Gateway General Store is ideally situated right smack in the middle of it all off the main road in the quiet town of Kabetogama, MN. For me I was camping about 7 miles away for a few days while exploring around Voyageurs and each morning I made it a priority to come by here to to load up on my days worth of food, snacks and any little extras I may have needed. In fact, Kabetogama is so small I wouldn't even know where else to go for the essentials!?!? I'd like to take an excerpt from the Gateway General Store website that sort of sums up the experience that you can expect when stopping on by...."One of the last "True" General Stores where you can find everything.  Regardless of where you pitch your tent or hang your hat you are ALWAYS welcome at Gateway!" They serve hot coffee and breakfast sandwiches in mornings and then as well as prepared cold cut sandwiches for lunch including all the drinks even desserts you may need. For at night when I was barbecuing at my campground, they had all the supplies, hot dogs, hamburgers, charcoal, etc, for my cookouts. I also noticed, Voyageurs NP is a park surrounded by infinite waters and it's best explored by boat. So...the amount of people first coming here in morning times for fishing staples were endless. Each sunrise I stopped on by, it was sort of a ritual for fisherman to go inside before heading out to the docks and piers for the day. They have gas if you need to fill up. Prices were pretty reasonable and not elevated for such a remote park that is Voyageurs...right near the border with Canada. Store hours are 7am - 8pm daily. If anyone cares, the address is....9378 US-53, Kabetogama, MN 56669. Or you can just plug the name into Google Maps on your phone and it'll instantly be recognized. Btw, besides all the food and provisions included, they also have a little gift shop/souvenir store for grabbing your little keepsakes and memorabilia because there's not many options around town other than the Voyageur's Visitor Centers. You can just do all your shopping here at the store. I also like the blue collar feel walking inside. The store had an old fashioned cabin/lodge setting as if I was transported back to simpler times. It definitely had a cozy/charming feeling. Finally, right across the street, if you need to find extra parking because the store got crowded out front with cars, you can do it. Plus, you'll find there's a terrific entrance sign worthy of a photo, at least in my opinion. It says..."Welcome to Kabetogama Lake Voyageurs National Park!" Cool! Overall, I really appreciated all the accessible amenities that this Gateway General Store offered. And for those national park enthusiasts out there needing to check every park off their "to-do lists", when you finally arrive at Voyageurs, you'll almost certainly have to stop on by here and you'll be pleasantly surprised with all the goods and necessities offered, perfect for spending time among nature and the great outdoors.

On 2 different occasions we discovered perishables past their expiration dates. Once we didn't notice the milk was well past the sell by date until we were back at the shack.

Okay, so admittedly the idea of reviewing a gas station/bait shop strikes me as fairly dumb, too,…read morebut this place is going to be a footnote in my travel tails for life, I'll bet. I flew into International Falls to rent a car and visit a friend up in Thunder Bay. My first stop was the Border Bob tourist trap to exchange some USD for some Canuck currency, but they failed me and pointed me in this direction. The old guy that runs this place is one of the most interesting individuals I've run across. For about 45 minutes I stood there and talked to this guy about his prior camping trips to Atikokan, and his encounters with the wildlife in the area. The guy busted out some old photographs of moose he'd run into on a canoe trip some five-ten-fifteen-who knows? years ago. This man is one of the friendliest people I've run across in my travels. If you happen to be in the area, stop in and say hi. (Bring cash though, because he apparently uses a fairly unreliable credit card processor.)

As you walk inside you're immediately greeted at the door with a "good afternoon" and the store appeared to be in great shape and clean. The men's restroom could use some work but what can you expect when you use a gas station bathroom right? People in and out all day long. Anyway, after getting coffee the clerk told us to have a great day and we were on our way out. I will gladly use this gas station again!
