The Ruttger family has been welcoming folks like you to their premier Bay Lake resort in northern Minnesota for more than a century. Much has changed over the years, but the essence of Ruttger’s resorts near Brainerd remains the same… The peace of a scenic lake shore sunset, time spent golfing, fishing and relaxing with the ones you love, a good meal, and the welcoming smile of an old friend. We welcome you and your family here to share in the warmth of our hearth and hearts because that’s the Ruttger’s Way. That’s how it has always been at our Minnesota resort and always will be.
