About

October Ridge Resort is a Ma and Pa Resort with 7 Modern housekeeping cabins and a Mobile Home settled on 40 acres. We have mowed nature trails that tie into thousands of acres of Chippewa National Forest to suit people that have the desire to hike, snowshoe, or cross country ski. Our yard is frequently visited by many of Minnesota's Northwoods critters including white-tailed deer, black bears, grouse, ducks, eagles, moose and many more.

   If you are a night owl, don't be surprised to find the Northern lights showing themselves off with the sounds of the loons calling or even a timber wolf howling once in a while in the background. The Northern Lights are nothing less than spectacular on a cool crisp night from late August to the end of Winter.
We hope you love and enjoy this place as much as we have and do!
 

  we are located all alone on 40 acres of the south shores of beautiful 3088 acre Island lake. We are bordered on both sides by miles of Chippewa National Forest which includes Minnesota's own Lost 40 acres of virgin timber just a few miles away. It is our goal to ensure you have a relaxing and quiet family vacation (sorry, please no jet skis.) Besides fishing, hunting, hiking, boating, and many other nature related activities being right out your door, here are a few other things nearby:
