Hi! We’re Tom and Steph Lantry, the heart and soul behind our family venture. As second-generation entrepreneurs and a dynamic husband-and-wife team, we've dedicated ourselves to the simple joys of life—wild blueberries, walleyes, campfires, cozy sweatshirts, and the pristine beauty of Lake Vermilion.

Our journey took a remarkable turn when, at the ages of 29 (Tom) and 25 (Steph), we bid farewell to our respective careers as a pilot and a registered nurse to embrace the legacy of our family business. What once started as a dream transformed into a reality as we took the reins of a beautiful historic resort in Northern Minnesota.

Today, amidst the breathtaking landscapes, you'll find us not only managing a piece of history but also passionately raising our three daughters. For us, family isn't just a part of the equation; it's the driving force that propels every decision and shapes our perspective.
Family is the cornerstone of our inspiration—a constant reminder of the importance of togetherness and shared moments. As we navigate this journey, we are thrilled to connect with kindred spirits who, like us, prioritize family above all else. Our resort isn't just a business; it's an extension of our values, a place where families come first, and where the echoes of laughter and shared experiences create lasting memories.

Join us in this adventure, where the warmth of family, the charm of Lake Vermilion, and the simplicity of life converge. We're not just hosts; we're storytellers, and we invite you to be part of our narrative. Experience the magic of our historic resort in Northern Minnesota, where every stay is not just a getaway but a chance to become more connected with your family.
