Welcome to our secluded wilderness area along the Gunflint Trail and Boundary Waters! You are invited to join us at the Poplar Creek Guesthouse. Or if you looking for a very remote getaway, check out our Wilderness Yurts. Click on Specials if you are interested in a deal on our lodging.

We are located along the Gunflint Trail Scenic Byway, just a short thirty-mile drive from the Lake Superior Coastal town of Grand Marais. There is always plenty to do— hiking, mountain biking and ski trails start at our Guesthouse front door. There is canoeing, swimming and great fishing in our lake and adjoining BWCA lakes. Moose viewing is always popular activity along the Gunflint Trail and the area is renowned for birding. We offer special Guided and Self-Guided Birding Tours and Birding Packages with Lodging. For folks looking for something to do for a day while in our area, check out all the day trips we offer.

The community, Northeast Minnesota, where we are located is a beautiful and unique part of our planet. You can be assured that we are dedicated to doing whatever we can to keep it this way. This commitment is enshrined as a matter of business policy in our company's Statement of Sustainability.
