Located 140 miles north of the Minneapolis/St. Paul area and twenty miles north of the greater Brainerd and Baxter areas, Pelican Lake is secluded enough to be quiet, but reasonably close to the attractions, dining and shopping of larger metropolitan cities.

Over fifty miles of this trail are paved as it winds through the old hardwood and white pine forests of Minnesota between the towns of Brainerd and Bemidji. Golfers will delight in the local golf courses of Deacon's Lodge, Antlers White Birch and the Breezy Point Traditional course set against the backdrop of the breath-taking, beautiful forests of north central Minnesota.

For aquatic amusements, take a boat out on the lake for an afternoon of fishing or sun-bathing. If you do not own your own boat, consider renting one from the local marina at the Breezy Point Resort. This marina features standard fourteen foot boats, deluxe sixteen foot Alumacraft Lunkers and even pontoon boats with a maximum capacity of fourteen people. Canoes, kayaks and paddleboats are also welcome and popular on this serene lake. For daring water enthusiasts, don't miss the thrill of flying along the surface of the lake on your water skis or inner tube. A public beach offers the opportunity to swim and relax along the shores of the gorgeous Pelican Lake.
