Welcome...

to Georgene's Haven on beautiful Bowstring Lake, traditionally one of the finest lakes in northern Minnesota. This 9,000+ acre lake offers plenty of fishing pleasure and fantastic scenic beauty. Nestled in the heart of the Chippewa National Forest you will often see our Bald Eagles, bear and listen to the calls of the loons.

Bowstring Lake has earned a well-deserved reputation for being one of the best Walleye, Perch, Crappie and Northern Pike lakes in the vicinity.

We offer a friendly fishing and family orientated resort. Same owner for 47 years so we feel we offer you continuity and pledge to meet your personal needs. George is usually available to assist you with this.

  • Our family has been coming to Georgene's for many years. The hospitality they show their guests is very welcoming. Their resort and cabins are always clean on arrival. A quiet place to relax by the lake and fishing on Bowstring Lake has always been great!
