About Ruttger's Bay Lake Lodge

The Best in Minnesota Lake Resort

Ruttger's Bay Lake Lodge is a family operated resort, and has been since its doors opened to fishermen in 1898. Each generation has made changes and improvements. Today, the award- winning Minnesota Lake Resort welcomes families, golfers, conference attendees - and fishermen.

Our Time-Line is a record of important historical events for the Ruttger family and the resort. We also have published "The First 100 Years", a book filled with history and photos.

To paraphrase Jack Ruttger, "The Ruttger family serves you like our own family."
