A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to preserve a lakeside legacy is on the market in northern Minnesota, where the iconic Northern Pine Lodge in Park Rapids recently hit the market for $4,900,000.
Mike Lynch, the listing agent with Lakes Sotheby’s International Realty, confirmed the sellers are planning to retire after more than 40 years running the family-owned resort.
“First established in 1914, this historic property has been a cherished getaway for generations, offering the perfect balance of tradition, comfort, and possibility,” the listing shares.

The 22-acre property is heavily wooded with birch and pine trees and offers 1,800 feet of hard-sand shoreline on the picturesque Potato Lake, which spans 2,100 acres and boasts over 10 feet of clarity.
The resort features a cozy main lodge, 18 guest cabins and two high-end log cabins that could serve as private homes or luxury rentals.
Designed for year-round enjoyment, guests can enjoy swimming, boating, fishing, volleyball, shuffleboard, mini golf, tennis and unwind in the resort’s large wood-burning sauna.
“Whether your vision is to continue operating a turnkey resort, create a multi-generational family compound, or preserve a lakeside legacy to pass down through the years, this property delivers unmatched potential,” the listing reads. “More than a retreat, it is an invitation to own a piece of Minnesota’s history while building memories for the future.”
Mike Lynch with Lakes Sotheby’s International Realty has the listing at 14588 230th Street in Park Rapids, Minn.
