Why not get back to basics with some old-fashioned fun and quality time  with those closest to you. Spend time reconnecting with family; Roast marshmallows over a campfire, fish off the dock or in a boat, explore the natural wonders and beauty of Minnesota or just relax and watch the wildlife.

If you're less than a tank of gas away from Balsam Bay Resort, we have a recession-busting plan that can't be beat.

First, our weekly cabin rental offers six nights and six full days of summer fun for a family of four with rates between $680 and $730.  Our large three-bedroom cabin is rated for six people at $1150.  That is a per person rate of only $28 to $32 per night; less than most motels charge!

It works like this:  our weekly check-in is Saturday morning starting at 9 am. so while others are battling the busy Saturday traffic to get up north for a 3 or 4 pm check-in, you're already here (fishing on the lake, swimming in the pool, or relaxing in the northwoods!)  Checkout the following Friday by 11 am and once again you are back on the road before the weekend traffic gets started.

Can't get away for 6 nights?  Balsam Bay offers a 3-night weekend or a 4-night mid week stay during our peak summer season as well; just need to wait until May 1st to make your reservations.

Off peak rates save you even more money (before June 4th or after August 13th in 2010), book any time of the week with only a 2-night stay required (3-night stay on Holiday weekends).  We have a special  2-person rate in our cabin's # 2 & # 5 during off-peak for an even more incredible deal.  Another option for a couple or small family is our 1 bedroom Park Model located in the RV Park.   Check our cabins & amenities for more information on our resort.

Create that lasting family vacation memory without breaking the bank!  Choose Balsam Bay Resort & RV Park for your next "backyard" get-away.  You'll be glad you did!
