Honestly one of the best resorts I've been to. The owners are attentive and caring. The cabins are gorgeous, spotless, and fun to be in! The lake is a blast and you feel close to nature, especially with the abundance of wildlife. It is fun for the whole family, but also great for a quiet weekend get away. Hope to return soon!!!

We've had the pleasure of staying at Pimushe for a summer family vacation two years now! The cabins and property are immaculately clean and comfortable! The owners are so nice and accommodating. You can tell they care and take pride in the resort. The lake is a perfect size with good variety of fish to be caught! The beach and water toys provide a fun break from the boat when needed. Our kids love it there too! Pimushe resort provides the right balance of fun and relaxation for a retreat. Thanks for the great trip Tim & Emily, we will be back again next year!

We just got back from two weeks at the resort. We love it. Tim and Emily are hard-working and very accommodating. We've stayed in the older smaller cabins, and the large newer cabins. We love them all. Beautiful territory. Good fishing. Our grown kids, and grandkids love it. So much for the kids to do. We will be back.

Fantastic vacation spot! Fishing, hummingbirds, wild life, water toys and a great swimming beach. Gorgeous, clean cabins and grounds. The resort owners are wonderful people and we look forward to our vacation weeks with them every summer! Highly recommend a visit!

Though it is the off season right now, I would suggest you consider Pimushe Resort for your vacation or get away next year! It is hard for me to pick one favorite thing. I love the water, water toys, paddle boards, water slides, and lounging on the beach. However, the peaceful nights by the fire are immeasurable. The way grounds are laid out, it feels like you are the only guests in the area. The owners are helpful and will educate and assist with anything you need. Yet they respect your space and plans if nothing is needed. The grounds are so loved and cared for and well tended. It all adds to the overall experience. Oh, and free sundaes on Sunday are always a big hit and treat!

September 2023 was our first Pimushe Resort stay, and what a wonderful time. The owners are as helpful and friendly as can be. The campsite, the pristine cabin, the beautiful lake, and the great grounds and docks all come together for an ideal Minnesota Fall vacation. We're still talking about it.

The resort was great. Cabins felt modern and included AC units, WiFi, and cable. The beach was well maintained with many lake toys and inflatables. Resort pontoons were available for rental and convenient. Overall a quiet, family oriented resort on a beautifully calm lake.
