Our resort, located in the Paul Bunyan State Forest, is surrounded by towering pines. We are a year-round resort, located on the northeast shore of West Crooked Lake. While our location is quiet and serene, we are only 15 miles NE of Park Rapids, MN and 15 miles SW of Walker, MN, where opportunities for shopping, dining, and recreation are plentiful.

West Crooked Lake Resort offers relaxation and enjoyment for the entire family. You can enjoy sun bathing on the sandy beach, swimming in the clear water, playing on the Rave Water Park, or reading a book in the shade. Listen to the loons calling, watch eagles soar overhead, glide through the clear waters in a kayak, canoe, or paddleboat, or just bring a book, relax, and catch some rays on the sandy beach. For the fisherman, West Crooked Lake hosts a large variety of fish including Walleye, Northern, Bass, Perch, Crappie and Sunfish.

The area offers many interesting and fun attractions, such as Itasca State Park where the Mississippi Headwaters is located, a local winery, the Heartland Trail (a paved trail, excellent for biking, walking, or rollerblading in the summer, and snowmobiling in the winter through the beautiful countryside), Northern Lights Casino, and many shopping and dining choices.
