Pine Ridge Resort is a family oriented fishing resort on Girl Lake near Longville in the Chippewa National Forest of northern Minnesota.  We are about 3 1/2 hours north of the Minneapolis/St. Paul metropolitan area. 

As a quiet, family fishing resort, we promote activities involving families enjoying the natural beauty of  Minnesota's northwoods together.

The resort covers about 4 acres and has over 650' of lakeshore on Girl Lake.  The shoreline is typical northern Minnesota lake shoreline, rocky with sand bottom running along the lakeshore. 

Girl Lake is part of the Woman Lake Chain of Lakes that includes Woman Lake, Girl Lake and Child Lake.  The Boy River begins to the west of the lakes and runs through the Woman Lake Chain of Lakes before flowing into Leech Lake.  Click the lake name to see contour maps of both Girl Lake and Woman Lake.

The Woman Lake Chain of Lakes is in Cass County of northern Minnesota.  The Boy River begins in Hackensack and flows right by Longville on the east end of the chain. We are on the south end of the Chippewa National Forest.

As a family oriented fishing resort, our first priority is to promote activities for people to be together with their families and friends in a quiet, northwoods setting. And since we also happen to be located on one of the better fishing chain of lakes in northern Minnesota, fishing is an important part of what we do here.  Families and fishing, great Minnesota traditions.

At the resort, there are seven cabins scattered along the lakeshore.  Mature pine, maple and birch trees surround all the cabins and create a special privacy for our guests who want to get away from the business of the cities.   Click here to see our cabin pages and learn more about each unit.

A family fishing resort wouldn't be such without the fishing.  Fishing off the docks is a favorite pass time for guests of all ages.  The younger kids are fascinated by the schools of bluegill, perch, and jumbo shiner minnows that are around the docks all summer.  Northern pike patrol the weed edge within casting range of all the docks.  And Girl Lake, with all it's bays and shoreline, almost always offers a quiet place to take the family where fish are sure to be found.
