Pine Ridge motel is right across from Anderson's Outfitters. I've used both establishments and recommend both. The motel room was very clean and the owner very accommodating. Your a couple miles from the start of the Echo Trail, Vermilion River Gorge and a mile from Crane Lake. Anderson's offers a great tow service clear to bottle portage if interested in that. I really love the West end and Crane Lake.

Any recommendations for a cheap single night of lodging at Crane Lake before a canoe trip? Thanks for any suggestions.

I always stay in Orr at Norman’s Motel. Nice clean inexpensive motel. Descent restaurant close by for breakfast. Norman’s also has bait and other last minute things you might need. Also a nice grocery store there. Crane Lake is not far.

I’ve stayed at Voyageur Landing the night before a tow from Anderson’s or Rocket Randy a few times and have been very happy.

Voyagaire Lodge has some nice sized rooms, have stayed there a few times a year for the past couple of years. The lodge was built just a few years ago so it’s pretty nice. Right on the water and has a real good restaurant and bar, huge patio on the lake, great place to take in a meal and drink.

+1 We stayed here before our week long Houseboat adventure up on Crane/Sandpoint/Namakan lakes. Awesome rooms. Awesome bar/restaurant.

Pine ridge is great! Like they said right across from Anderson's.
