Historic Merit Lodge — Trapper's Landing Lodge

A CENTURY ON THE WATER

ONE OF THE OLDEST RESORTS ON LEECH LAKE.

What is now Trapper’s Landing Lodge has welcomed guests to the South Shore of Leech Lake since 1921 — making it one of the oldest continuously operating resort properties on the lake. Originally established as Merit Lodge by the Merit family, the property later operated as Huddle’s West End before being reimagined as Trapper’s Landing Lodge in 2007. Through every era, the draw has been the same: 1,600+ feet of Leech Lake shoreline, walleye fishing ranked among Minnesota’s best, a sandy beach, and the kind of Northwoods setting that pulls families back, season after season. Under the Arnold family, that tradition continues — elevated, preserved, and open to a new generation of owners.
