Lloyd's Landing has been our family's vacation getaway for three generations. Now you can make it part of your family's story too!
Lloyd's Landing is a taste of midcentury life. Our 3 bedroom, 1 bath cabin is on a quiet corner of South Twin Lake, just 45 min west of Itasca. It's the perfect place to escape from the buzz of the high tech world. In true mid-mod style, we have no TV; we're even a little light on clocks. But that's the point: unplug for once. Play some board games. Grill with real charcoal. We have two kayaks, a row boat, and some floaty toys to enjoy the clear water and sandy lake bottom.
Lake Life
We keep it simple at Lloyd's Landing. But there are still plenty of things to do in the area. The lake itself has great fishing, and some of the state's best ATV trails are right out the back door. If you feel like a day trip, you can visit Paul Bunyan in Bemidji, the headwaters of the Mississippi at Itasca State park, or the original Zorbaz in Detroit Lakes, all less than an hour away.

The peace of wild things
When despair for the world grows in me
and I wake in the night at the least sound
in fear of what my life and my children’s lives may be,
I go and lie down where the wood drake
rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds.
I come into the peace of wild things
who do not tax their lives with forethought
of grief. I come into the presence of still water.
And I feel above me the day-blind stars
waiting with their light. For a time
I rest in the grace of the world, and am free.
--Wendell Berry
