Ask anyone who’s spent a weekend at Gull Lake Motel and they’ll tell you the best part of staying here isn’t just the room — it’s everything within arm’s reach the moment you step outside. Gull Lake Motel sits directly across from Gull Lake in Nisswa, Minnesota, right on the local walking and biking path, which means your days can start on two wheels and end on the water without ever getting back in the car.
On the Water
The Nisswa boat launch is just down the road, making it easy to get out on Gull Lake whether you brought your own boat or rented one for the day. If you’d rather stay on shore, the public beach nearby is an easy walk from your room — grab a towel and go.
In Town
Downtown Nisswa is a few minutes away and worth the trip on its own. Wander the shops, stop into a local coffee roaster, and grab dinner at one of the restaurants that make this stretch of the Brainerd Lakes Area so easy to love. If you’re visiting in summer, don’t miss the town’s famous Wednesday turtle races — a small-town tradition that’s been going for decades.
On the Course
Golfers are well taken care of here too. Several well-regarded courses are a short drive from the motel, making Gull Lake Motel a popular home base for golf trips with friends.
Wherever You Wander
That’s the thing about staying at Gull Lake Motel — you’re never far from whatever kind of day you’re after, whether that’s boating, biking, browsing shops, or just relaxing in a quiet, wooded setting. Come back each evening to a clean, comfortable room with its own kitchenette, so you can settle in on your own schedule.
