Bluefin Bay on Lake Superior: Why?

How about something different for a change? Offering romantics, families and seniors an exclusive getaway, all at the same resort, may seem like a triple contradiction. Even more so from a remote location in northern Minnesota, just a few miles from the Canadian border on the banks of the worlds largest inland lake, Lake Superior. The contradiction compounds the unthinkable by offering amenities that abound during all four seasons!

Perhaps you have already booked your winter travel dates to a warm climate, so let’s fast forward to travel planning for 2004. Bluefin Bay is just the place if you’re considering a cool site (literally) for next spring or summer. Renew that romantic spark with a loved one or bring you family closer together with the great outdoors as your playground.

During May and June of next year there are great deals for seniors (62+), families and couples. You will find discounts for food and activities, and even a free night’s accommodations, at this large but cozy resort nestled on the rugged banks of Lake Superior. Voted Minnesota’s favorite resort by Minnesota Monthly magazine this year, Bluefin Bay will overwhelm you with luxurious accommodations. Selections include: a collection of beautifully designed and appointed seaside vacation homes with fireplaces, private decks, vaulted ceilings, breathtaking views and private whirlpool baths or choose from guest rooms to guest suites. Additionally one, two and three bedroom condominiums and townhouses are available.

Should you tire from soaking in your private hot tub while looking upward into the cool night sky viewing the stars as you remember them as a youth (without smog), go inside by the fireplace and snuggle up to your someone special next to you with a glass of your favorite wine. Remember not to get too relaxed because the next day could bring an even more romantic encounter aboard the many sailboats for charter, with crew or captain, on the historic waters and rugged coastline of Lake Superior’s northern shore.

Over one million acres of natural wooded forest containing black bear, wolves, lynx, moose, red fox and many other animals surround the resort. Five state parks are included in this acreage and are available for personal enjoyment. Canoeing, kayaking or sailing on the more than 200 lakes, all within a 25-mile radius. There is much, much more!
The amenities are far too many to list here. A visit to Bluefin Bay online is an absolute must in order to absorb the majestic beauty of both the physical location and gracious abundant offerings. Visit their site at http://bluefinbay.com, and you might just want to go now!

Located just an hours drive north of Duluth, Minn., in the township of Tofte, BlueFin Bay has it all – romance, family and tradition.
