Timber Bay Lodge & Houseboats

Founded in 1947, Timber Bay Lodge & Houseboats is a premier 22-acre wilderness resort bridging rugged capability with refined comfort. We operate 14 traditional cabins, a 13-vessel commercial houseboat fleet, and a 25-slip full-service marina. Positioned as the ultimate "Explorer-Caregiver," we provide elite logistical support and high-touch service for anglers, off-roaders, and families.

Located in Babbitt, MN, we are your gateway to the Boundary Waters. Our basecamp anchors Birch Lake, a 20-mile reservoir featuring 85% undeveloped federal wilderness. This unique topography delivers legendary stained-water fishing and direct, "key-on" access from your cabin door to the 250-mile Prospector Loop ATV network. Experience profound, true wilderness without the logistical friction.
