Minnesota Fishing Resorts - Gus' Place Resort

A Minnesota Fishing Resort for Top Walleye Fishing

Welcome - and thank you for considering our Minnesota fishing resort for your next family vacation, fishing vacation or hunting trip.

We are located on the shores of Ball Club Lake, surrounded by the Chippewa National Forest and just 10 minutes from fishing on Lake Winnibigoshish (Lake Winnie). Since the land surrounding Ball Club Lake is mostly state or federally owned; there is very little development around the lake, and that makes for a very relaxing and stress-free stay.

The resort is open year round with eight lake-level cabins, two mobile homes, 13 full hook-up RV camping sites and an area for primitive tent camping.

Our cabins are snug, cozy and set up for comfortable living. Six of them are two bedroom, one is a three bedroom and one is a single bedroom. All of the cabins feature modern conveniences and all have kitchens and bathrooms, microwaves and color TVs.

We have a huge grassy yard, large sandy swimming beach, four hole amateur golf course, volleyball, children's playground and other activities for children young and old.

The resort is located in northcentral Minnesota and is 24 miles from Grand Rapids, 9 miles from Deer River and 233 miles north of Minneapolis and St. Paul. We're also just a short drive from world-class Minnesota fisheries like Lake Winnie, (Lake Winnibigoshish) and Cass Lake.

Our guests return year after year for a relaxing stay and the best walleye fishing in Minnesota. Take a look around our website and feel free to contact us by phone or email with any questions. We hope you'll spend your next vacation at our MN Fishing Resort!
