    LINEN SERVICE
    • Cabin and lodge rooms are fully stocked with bed and bath linens. We provide bath towels but you'll want to bring your own outdoor towels for any lake/water activities.

    • Public laundromats are available in Grand Marais.

    • Our corner of the Gunflint is a strange place for pets, so please make sure to bring them with you as much as possible, keep them on a leash at all times when on the property, and use the provided pet bags to pick up any waste.
    • Pet charge is $20/day or $120/week per pet.

    • If you see that trash pick-up has already happened, we ask that you keep your trash in the cabin/room overnight to avoid the attention of our forest friends. 
    • We encourage our guests to recycle when possible. Please dedicate one of your trash cans to general garbage, and the other to recyclable materials, including glass, aluminum/steel cans, recyclable plastic, and cardboard. Please make sure that recycling has been cleaned of any food/etc waste before discarding. 
    ASSUMPTION OF RISK (WAIVER)
    • Borderland Lodge is a wilderness lodge – it’s why people come here!
    • While we work to provide a safe and enjoyable experience, certain risks are inherent in a wilderness location that cannot reasonably be removed without altering the unique wilderness experience. 
    • Some of these risks include uneven terrain, unpredictable weather, and insects and wild animals. In addition, our lake areas are not monitored by lifeguards. 
    • When you stay at Borderland Lodge, you assume the risks of those activities and release Borderland Lodge from any liability for any harm or damages that may occur. 
    FIRES 
    • Each Borderland Lodge cabin is outfitted with either a wood burning stove or propane fireplace, fire starter, and the tools you will need for a personal fire in your cabin.
    • Up North, Bear Paw, and Sun & Snow have private fire rings for your enjoyment. Wood is stocked, if you should need more we will restock for an additional $25.
    • Fires in other locations are not permitted.
    • All guests are invited to use the shared fire rings in front of the lodge or near the docks.
    • Because we are in a heavily wooded forested area we ask that you please use your best judgment and more sure to fully extinguish your fire once done. 

    KITCHEN & ROOM POLICY
    • Please practice safe cooking habits and do not leave burners on unattended. All dishes must be washed and put away prior to departure. Lingering smells, grease, and dishes that require additional cleaning will result in a $250 cleaning fee.
    • We want you to have a great time when you are here! But, if things get too crazy, we go by the old-school rule of ‘you break it, you buy it’ and property damages or missing items will be charged to your credit card at market value. Linens that remain stained after multiple treatments and washes are $125 a set.
    • Pre-existing damages or cabin/room issues should be reported immediately after registration to avoid responsibility and potential charges.
    • Our resort allows guests, with permission, to receive occasional packages and special deliveries at the property. We are not responsible for the packages or their contents or the storage of them.
