An Inclusive, All-Welcoming, Affirming Campground and Nature Retreat
Pine Lake Fishing Club & Campground will be a design-forward campground and retreat destination that creates a rare and essential offering in outdoor hospitality: a safe, affirming, joy-centered space for LGBTQIA2S+ travelers and allies, grounded in nature, community, and care.
Located within 1.5 hours of the Twin Cities, Pine Lake Fishing Club will blend thoughtfully designed accommodations, curated experiences, and a small working farm to create a destination that is memorable, values-driven, and openly welcoming to all.
We believe that nature has a quiet, powerful way of restoring us—offering space to breathe, reflect, and heal in ways that modern life often cannot. Stepping away from the pace of city life and immersing yourself in the calm of the outdoors can deeply renew your spirit, bringing balance, clarity, and a lasting sense of well-being.
Pine Lake Fishing Club fills this gap by offering a rural retreat where inclusion is explicit, visible, and operationalized, not assumed. We look to provide a space where people can learn, experience nature, and relax. We will offer workshops and events around topics such as oil painting, yarn and fabric crafts, nature hikes, yoga, and sauna experiences. We will also offer take-home style kits to take back to your tent or a quiet spot to learn a new craft. These can be guided paint-your-own crafts, woodworking, crochet, etc.
Together, we can create this space and enjoy it for generations to come!
