Pine Terrace Resort is your quintessential Minnesota, family vacation resort.

Step outside, slow down, and reconnect with what matters most—your family, your time, and the world around you.

Discover Pine Terrace Resort

A peaceful, family-run hideaway in the heart of Minnesota lake country.

Nestled on 36 secluded acres in Crosslake, near the Brainerd Lakes area, Pine Terrace offers a quiet retreat surrounded by nature, with the convenience of local attractions, restaurants, and a grocery store. As the lake’s only boat launch, Pine Terrace offers peaceful waters and a truly secluded escape. Our lakefront cabins sit on the shores of Star Lake. It's perfect for families—especially kids catching bluegills, crappie, bass and pike right off the dock!
