Brookside Resort — Hotel in Park Rapids

Jamie and Joanna are the sibling proprietors of this beautiful beach getaway that our family has been going to for over 50 years! The price of admission gets you a clean rustic modernly furnished cabin, daily child care, water-skiing, golf tournaments, tennis tournaments, an aluminum fishing boat, lake water toys, kids events with prizes and "certificates" and much more. Special events such as candle making and "sip and paint" also pop up during the week for an additional small fee. If you just want to chill and relax, kick back at the lodge or hang out at your cabin you can do that as well. There's a reason families return year after year, there really is something...

We've been coming here for the past 5 years. Always have a great stay! Staff is excellent! Cabins are so clean and nicely equipped. Some have been remodeled more recently than others. The beach is nice. Amenities are great - especially for our young kids (0-5). Golf course isn't in the best shape but fun to play. The ice cream shakes are the bomb. We come mid-September each year and my only complaint is the pool is closed...

We spent our vacation up here and loved it. I hadn't been up here for a number of years, and it was just as wonderful and friendly as before. Our cabin was very nice, very clean and comfortable. We hated to come home and we cannot wait to come back next year. Thank you so much for your hospitality and beautiful place!
