Nice! Have you stayed there? Is it a decent campground? Do they have beer?"

I don't know what their campground is like but the Lodge, restaurant/bar, and patio is very nice. The food is decent and the beer is cold."

Reserved! I'll report back on how it is.

If it's beer you're interested in, stop by Voyager's Brewing in Grand Marais and bring a growler up the Gunflint.


Also, if you're looking for a small step up in accommodations from a campground Clearwater Lodge has a bunkhouse you may want to look into.

We stayed at Flour lake a few years ago and really liked it.

If you a looking for a 6-pack, be aware that outfitters don't have the proper license to sell regular beer. They only sell 3.2% versions, unless the laws have changed. Used to be that you needed to go to a state licensed store to get regular beer. Tastes pretty much the same, but with less "buzz" factor. I found that out at the Holiday in Grand Marais and Sawbill. I usually either bring it from home or stop at a liquor store in Wisconsin on the way up. I think what you get in restaurants/bars is the real deal though.

Is there a good campground near Bearskin / Hungry Jack Lake? In August I'll be backpacking the Angleworm Trail over near Ely, and need to pick up my daughter at Menogyn early in the morning, and realized I'd be unwise to try and hike out, drive, and still make it to Bearksin before 10 AM.
