River Bend Resort

Located along the Rainy River just 11 milesnorth of Baudette, River Bend Resort offers a classic northern Minnesota fishing-resort experience with convenient access to both the river and legendary Lake of the Woods. The open waters of the lake are just a short boat ride away, making the resort a natural basecamp for anglers while still offering a peaceful waterfront setting for families and outdoor travelers.

Family-owned and operated River Bend emphasizes the personal hospitality associated with Minnesota's independently owned resorts. Accommodations include renovated lakeside cabins, along with an RV park and campground. The resort also operates the Walleye Inn in Baudette for guests looking for a more budget-oriented lodging option.

A Resort Built Around Fishing

Fishing is at the center of River Bend's identity. Guests can bring their own boats or take advantage of the resort's open-water charter fishing packages, docks and marina. Its Rainy River location provides access to productive river fishing as well as Lake of the Woods, internationally known for its walleye and sauger fishery.

River Bend is also a true four-season fishing destination. During winter, the resort offers ice-fishing packages and heated fish houses, allowing visitors to experience Lake of the Woods long after the boats have been put away.
