    Every now and then we get a bit of snow...You can almost snow shoe down the Baptism River to Lake Superior. Winter is almost always a wonderland on Minnesota's pristine North Shore.
    The Baptism River Inn guest living area features a stone fireplace and some very comfortable lounging. Cozy during chilly North Shore winters and cooled by Lake Superior breezes in the summer
    Our Evergreen Suite is a spacious (750 sq ft) and luxurious retreat for honeymoons, anniversaries or just to pamper yourselves. Private breakfast area with balcony and view to the Baptism River, Vermont Castings Stove and great sound system highlight this favorite of lovers from 19 to 90.
    Relax in front of the Evergreen Suite's Vermont Castings wood stove. Read, nap or play a game of cribbage. Sofa pulls out to accomodate 2 additional guests on the most comfortable full sized mattress of its type.
    The Evergreen Suite's private bath is spacious with a two-person whirlpool tub and separate shower. Custom tile throughout.
    The Evergreen Suite private bath has a custom double vanity.
    Winter twilight sky over our streach of the Baptism River.
    Lots of sunshine in this cozy southwest corner guest room. The balcony overlooks the woods and peeks at the Baptism River rushing by. Bright warm colors will cheer you even on cloudy days.
    Bright, cheery and playful are all adjectives that describe the sunny River Room.

    Once again, an outstanding stay!

    May 21, 2013

    We have stayed here before and loved it both times. We especially loved the peace and quiet, privacy, whirlpool, sauna, music cd's, and breakfast in our room. Thank you for providing long distance telephone service (our cell phones had no reception and we had a teenager at home alone!) Once again, a wonderfully relaxing and delightful stay. Thank you so much!

    Winter magic

    March 24, 2013

    A magical get away in the middle of winter....the scenery is gorgeous., It snowed the first nite of my stay. It looked like a picture postcard, so beautiful with the snowy pines. I stayed in the River Room, a colorful, snug and cosy room, with loveseat, chair and private balcony. The food is scruptious and the hosts very congenial. I'd definitely come back in summer or fall.

    Best of the North Woods

    January 12, 2013

    This was our third stay at Baptism River Inn and it was every bit as good as it had been before. We love the tranquility, the cozy character of the place, and Lura's gracious hospitality and delicious breakfasts. Since it was mid-week in mid-winter and we were the only guests, we had the lovely comfy lounge to ourselves, and just revelled in the warmth while enjoying the view of the snowy woods outside. There can hardly be a better place for a getaway from the city.

    Great Honeymoon Destination

    November 06, 2012

    We spent part of our honeymoon at the Baptism River Inn B&B and absolutely loved it! The Inn was very modern and comfortable as well as relaxing and peaceful! We enjoyed the wood burning fireplace and the 2 person whirlpool tub in our room. We also watched the deer off our balcony and listed to the river running by. We had a delicious breakfast delivered to our room every morning...it was wonderful! We highly recommend this B&B and hope to return soon!
