Fishing Opener 2025 is OPEN!

Welcome to your relaxing River Run Retreat, a short boat ride on the Tamarac River and you're on Upper Red Lake. This 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom that easily sleeps 8 is the perfect choice for a memorable get away.

Nestled on the bank of the Tamarac River, you'll find a perfect blend of country comfort and city convenience. After catching your limit you'll love being able to tie up at your private dock. Then 60 feet away is the deck to relax listening to the loons.

As you step inside, you'll be greeted by the spacious recreation room that's been thoughtfully designed for your entire group to relax and enjoy together. With lots of games, puzzles, foosball, cards, dice, and seating for spending quality time with each other.

The fully equipped kitchen is complete with routine appliances, including dishwasher, and ample counter space. Craft a tasty meal of fresh fried fish together before gathering around the dining table with seating for 6-8.

Each of the two bedrooms have been thoughtfully furnished for a great night's sleep. Included are two sofa beds in the living rooms with upgraded, high-quality mattresses for the comfort of all. Great quality linens, plenty of pillows, warm or cool blankets, and fans are just a few of the features that await you. With a newly renovated bathroom getting ready for the day's adventures will be a breeze.

Plus, the proximity to the general store, off-sale, bait, tackle, and a bar and grill is truly unbeatable - just 1/4 mile each direction and you have all you need right at your fingertips from this amazing home.

After an exhilarating day in the outdoors, you won't want to miss relaxing on the private back deck, enjoying the sights and sounds that the River Run Retreat area has to offer.

While you plan your trip, don't forget to add this listing to your wish list!

Guests can use the entire home, yard, and waterfront.

Good overall
Pros: clean, close to lake access through a resort (with a fee), good room inside for 6 guys and gear. Supplied well with kitchen essentials. Stove and refrig were clean and worked. Cons: Parking with a truck and trailer was a challenge--on a busy road. The one bathroom was very, very small especially for taller people. Overall, a good stay.

Great spot!
Clean, roomy, has everything you would need! Caught a walleye right off the dock. Right across the road there is a great restaurant and pontoon rentals. Up the road is a national park with a great beach. Super family friendly house and area!!!!
