What a great place to stop at, this is not far from the interstate and is well worth the stop. It has a collection of antique, beautiful & wacky watercraft and all sorts of other memorabilia, motors and history related to the many lakes in Minnesota. In the backyard of the museum there is a meditation flower garden, with a stage, gazebo and benches! You can take a stroll about and relax for a while before continuing your trip. We enjoyed it was fun, informative, fun and relaxing.

Very nice boat display. The work put in not this place is amazing. Worth a look. The garden out back is refreshing as well.

It's a museum about boats. It was interesting to look around briefly, learned some information. Very well laid out, beautiful garden out back. Just be aware it's all boats (with a little fishing paraphernalia).
