Interview Q&A
How long have you been in business?
After 16 seasons of owning and operating Everett Bay Lodge on Lake Vermilion, we are still excited and enthusiastic about the chance to share Lake Vermilion with others who enjoy Fishing, Families and Fun!
What is your primary product or service?
Our ten cabin resort offers a variety of housekeeping cabin rentals fit most any budget, ranging from 1 to 5+ bedroom options as well as a nice variety of rental boats/motors. We include reserved docking for those guests who choose to bring their own boat. We offer Minnesota family and fishing vacations.
How did you first become interested in your line of business? (if owner) - What is your background? (If owner or store manager)
After growing up spending our family summer vacations at a Minnesota family resort, we jumped at the opportunity to trade in our nearly 20 years of experience in healthcare & investments for the chance to buy our resort and spend our time offering those same Lake Vermilion resort vacations to others.
How do you differentiate yourself from other businesses in your category and area?
With updated, modern conveniences of home such as satellite tv, yet that original a'cabin in the woods" feel, our resort along with its heated swimming pool, sauna, water toys such as hydro-bikes... provides the perfect setting for families and groups that want the it all. We have families that return year after year as well as groups of serious anglers who choose our location because of our close proximity to great fishing spots all season long. We want our guests to catch fish, and work hard to help them identify the best spots and tactics for the fantastic multi-species offering of Lake Vermilion - walleyes, muskies, small & large mouth bass, northern, perch...we have it all. As the closest cabin resort to Fortune Bay Casino and The Wilderness Golf Course those looking for other things to do need not go far.
How many locations do you have and do you have plans to expand?
We have 1 location. While we are always upgrading cabins and our rental boat fleet, we have the "perfect" size resort. Big enough to offer the services our guests enjoy, yet small enough to maintain that more personal, relaxing stay our guests are looking for.
